Botulinum toxin is a protein that inactivates facial muscle mobility and is the best treatment for correction and prevention of wrinkles. There are two different approaches to Botox treatment.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"422\" data-end=\"697\">\u2022 <strong data-start=\"424\" data-end=\"439\">Light Botox<\/strong> (Baby Botox) is a mild form of the classic therapy, where a smaller dose of the drug is used. It creates a quite natural effect and does not completely restrict muscle movement. It is suitable for younger people who want prevention.<br data-start=\"672\" data-end=\"675\" \/>(Duration: 2-4 months)<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"699\" data-end=\"1082\">\u2022 <strong data-start=\"701\" data-end=\"710\">Botox<\/strong> (Full Botox) is the classic treatment that offers more intense smoothing of wrinkles, therefore it is addressed to people with deeper wrinkles. It improves the appearance of the face by offering a younger and fresher look. It prevents the formation of new wrinkles in areas with intense expressions. We check the treatment 2 weeks later to see if a repeat is necessary.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1084\" data-end=\"1307\">The repeat is usually carried out 10-14 days after the first application and its purpose is to check the result and if small corrections or additional injections are necessary to perfect the result.<br data-start=\"1282\" data-end=\"1285\" \/>(Duration: 4-6 months)<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1309\" data-end=\"1445\"><strong data-start=\"1309\" data-end=\"1322\">Procedure<\/strong><br data-start=\"1322\" data-end=\"1325\" \/>The Botox application procedure is simple, quick, and harmless as the application is done with an extremely thin needle.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1447\" data-end=\"1651\"><strong data-start=\"1447\" data-end=\"1458\">Results<\/strong><br data-start=\"1458\" data-end=\"1461\" \/>The first results become visible within 2-7 days, with the full effect being visible in about 2 weeks. That is why we check the treatment after 2 weeks when we have the &#8220;full&#8221; Botox session.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1653\" data-end=\"1898\"><strong data-start=\"1653\" data-end=\"1679\">Maintenance of Results<\/strong><br data-start=\"1679\" data-end=\"1682\" \/>Repeating the treatment at regular intervals helps to maintain the youthful and smooth result. After the first months of application, the muscles gradually restore their function as the effect of the toxin decreases.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1900\" data-end=\"2057\"><strong data-start=\"1900\" data-end=\"1923\">After the Treatment<\/strong><br data-start=\"1923\" data-end=\"1926\" \/>As the effect of Botox fades away, the face will gradually return to its initial condition, exactly as it was before the treatment.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2059\" data-end=\"2081\"><strong data-start=\"2059\" data-end=\"2079\">Treatment Points<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"2082\" data-end=\"2203\">\n<li
