Scientific studies have shown that the effect of muscle relaxants lasts for about 4 months, but there are clients for whom the result lasts for up to a year. We often find that even after the effect of muscle relaxants has worn off, you still don’t want to be expressive with your facial expressions. Therefore, the injection should be repeated if it is no longer possible to consciously control facial expressions when reading, working or doing other activities.
Injections of muscle relaxants are the most effective for removing and preventing facial wrinkles. With the help of muscle relaxants, you can temporarily stop the formation and deepening of wrinkles. This procedure can be combined with hyaluronic acid, other face-shaping injections, mesotherapy, PRP procedures, and laser methods. If you want to achieve an optimal result, you should seek advice from our specialists, who will individually select the most suitable combination of beauty treatments for you.
Muscle relaxant injections are not suitable for you if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, breastfeeding, or if you suffer from blood disorders, if your blood clotting is disturbed, or if you have experienced allergies to previous injections. This method is not suitable for patients with nervous system disorders that affect the transmission of nerve impulses to the muscle (atrophic lateral sclerosis, myasthenia, etc.). Injections should also be postponed if a rash or signs of infection appear in the area to be corrected. Be sure to inform the specialist about any medications, allergies and illnesses you are suffering from.
It is very important that you do not lie down immediately after the muscle relaxant injection, but remain in a vertical position for at least four hours. Then, for at least three days after the injection, you should not rub, massage or heat the treated area. Do not do any strenuous exercise for a few days, and do not heat yourself up in a sauna or hot bath. It is recommended that you use sunscreen for at least two weeks after any beauty treatment.
The procedure is almost painless and takes only a few minutes. Very small needles are used, and only a small amount of the preparation is needed, with only a few injections required. If you are sensitive to pain, you can talk to the injection specialist about analgesia. After the procedure, the injection site is cooled and you can resume your normal daily routine.
Excessive sweating, also known as hyperhidrosis, is a condition that causes discomfort due to sweat stains, sweaty palms or unpleasant odour. One of the safest methods of treating hyperhidrosis is with injections of muscle relaxants. These substances block the transmission of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine from the nerve ending in the skin to the sweat gland, which leads to a significant reduction or complete elimination of perspiration in that area. The sweat glands themselves are not blocked or damaged by this method; they are merely temporarily relaxed and no longer release sweat. Such a procedure is usually performed in the underarm, palm or sole areas.
Another common question is whether it is harmful to temporarily stop sweating, since sweat is also necessary for cooling and detoxification. The short answer is no. The human body sweats all over. So if muscle relaxants are only injected into the armpit, for example, sweat will continue to be released as usual from other parts of the body. Please note that these substances are used to treat increased sweating in people who sweat even without physical activity, and only in 1-2 small zones, so they do not affect the body’s ability to cool down.
Yes, muscle relaxants are one of the most effective treatments for teeth grinding. In this process, muscle relaxants are injected into the chewing muscles (masseter), paralysing them. However, in addition to the muscle relaxant injections, attention should also be paid to the emotional state, as bruxism can be triggered by tension, stress or other problems in some cases.
How long the effects of muscle relaxants last for each client depends on the individual characteristics of the body, but there are several ways to prolong the effects of these treatments:
• Heat (saunas, solariums, heat treatments) is the enemy of botulinum and should therefore be avoided in order to maintain the results of the injections for as long as possible.
• According to the latest research, taking zinc before and after the procedure can prolong the effect of botulinum.
• B vitamins should be avoided unless medically indicated.
• Home cosmetics containing hexapeptides can also prolong the effect of muscle relaxant injections.
The final effect of muscle relaxants occurs within two weeks after the procedure. After this period, the doctor may recommend a repeat procedure to evaluate the result and make minor corrections – this is a perfectly normal practice worldwide.
Yes, of course, the first muscle relaxant injection in a client is often given in the frown line between the eyebrows, without other areas being corrected. However, it is important to note that if the client is only bothered by horizontal forehead wrinkles and wants an injection of muscle relaxant in that one area, the doctor, after assessing the muscle tone of the face and the individual anatomy, may recommend correcting the area between the eyebrows at the same time during the same procedure. In this case, the feeling of heaviness of the eyebrows is avoided, and the harmony and balance of the face are not lost.
This type of procedure is only performed on adults. In worldwide practice, it is common for muscle relaxant injections to be a procedure for young people. Muscle relaxant injections not only reduce facial wrinkles, but also prevent them from forming and deepening. There is no specific age at which to start these procedures, because the signs of aging appear differently in each person – some facial wrinkles are bothersome as early as 25, while others only notice them much later. Therefore, do not consider muscle relaxant injections based on age, but rather when you notice wrinkles forming on your face.
Firstly, you should only trust medical professionals with any type of injection and only in approved medical facilities that use certified muscle relaxant preparations. Although muscle relaxants are an excellent procedure for most people, there is a very small percentage of the population that has or develops resistance to muscle relaxants over time, which can make the procedure ineffective. In such cases, another preparation can be tried after consultation with the treating physician. Other reasons may be related to the patient’s state of health and various diseases or conditions, so it is necessary to be open about your health history with the treating specialist.
No, invasive aesthetic procedures should not be performed during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Firstly, there are no scientific studies on aesthetic procedures in pregnant and breastfeeding women, so both the result and the possible side effects for the mother and child are unpredictable. Secondly, hormones fluctuate greatly during this time, which has a major impact on the end result. For this reason, injections should be given at least a few months after breastfeeding has ended.
