Softening expression lines
Targeted application of a medical product relaxes tension in selected facial muscles and helps soften lines on the forehead, between the brows and around the eyes. The treatment takes just a few minutes and, with the right approach, preserves natural facial expressions.
Who is the treatment suitable for?
The treatment is intended for women and men who want to soften lines caused by repeated movement of the facial muscles. Most commonly these are vertical frown lines between the brows, horizontal forehead lines and fine crow's feet at the corners of the eyes. It is suitable for those looking for a quick solution without a long recovery who also wish to keep a natural facial expression. Every treatment is preceded by a consultation with a doctor, who assesses your skin, facial expressions and medical history and, together with you, decides on the appropriate extent of the application.
How do expression lines form?
Expression lines form where the skin repeatedly folds when you smile, frown or raise your eyebrows. In youth, the skin quickly smooths out after each movement, but with age it loses elasticity and the lines gradually deepen and remain visible even at rest. The injectable treatment does not target the skin itself, but the muscle that creates the line. By temporarily relaxing it, the skin above creases less, which can soften the lines and give the face a more rested look.
What does it address?
- Frown lines between the brows
- Forehead lines
- Crow's feet around the eyes
- Tired expression
How the treatment works
The doctor applies a medical product that temporarily reduces tension in selected facial muscles. As a result, the skin in the treated area contracts less and the lines may gradually fade. The effect is not immediate – it usually becomes apparent over several days after the application. The result is temporary and its duration varies, typically lasting several months. With regular repeat treatments, the effect may last longer. The doctor chooses the dosage and injection sites so that the face retains its natural mobility.

Course of the treatment
The treatment begins with a consultation, during which the doctor assesses your facial expressions and determines the exact application sites. The procedure itself takes just a few minutes. The product is introduced with a very fine needle through gentle injections into selected facial muscles, and in some cases also the neck. You may feel a brief sting or slight tension at the injection site, but the treatment is usually well tolerated. Immediately after the procedure, you can return to most of your usual activities. The treatment is performed by qualified doctors certified for this type of application.
Aftercare
A longer recovery period is usually not needed. For approximately two hours after the application, it is advisable to keep your head upright and not to touch or massage the treated area. Over the following days, treat your skin gently and avoid strenuous physical activity, saunas and sunbeds. Mild redness at the injection sites is common and usually subsides within a few hours. If you notice any unusual or prolonged reaction, please contact your treating doctor.
