FAQ

How does injecting wrinkles with botulinum toxin work?

The injection with the muscle relaxant is one of the most popular wrinkle treatments worldwide. The method is straightforward and particularly effective for expression lines such as the famous frown lines on the forehead, thinker's lines, or crow's feet at the outer eye area. The active ingredient botulinum toxin A is injected directly into the muscle. This relaxes slightly, resulting in the smoothing of the expression lines.

For very pronounced wrinkles or additional static wrinkles, a combination treatment with a hyaluronic acid filler may be sensible to achieve even better results. We will discuss with you which treatment best suits your desires and your skin type during our consultation at our clinic in Zurich.

The skin-smoothing effect of botulinum toxin is not visible immediately after application – it develops gradually in the following days and weeks. The wrinkle injection with the muscle relaxant can be repeated after a few months. For most patients, the result lasts several months. How long exactly depends on your constitution, life circumstances, and your metabolism. However, the more frequently you have an injection with botulinum toxin, the less active substance we need, and the longer you will enjoy the result.

How does injecting wrinkles with Hyaluronic Acid Filler in Zurich work?

The treatment with hyaluronic acid fillers is one of the most effective treatments to reduce lines and depressions (also pronounced wrinkles) in the face. There are different forms of hyaluronic acid on the market: more cross-linked, more liquid, and firmer preparations for practically every type of wrinkle and application. This way, we can naturally restore volume to the cheek area and fine crinkle lines and specifically fill deep wrinkles like the nasolabial fold and marionette lines.

Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance that occurs in our body and has intensive moisturizing properties. When injected as a filler directly under and into the skin, it binds water and thus provides more volume and tension.

Injecting wrinkles with hyaluronic acid fillers is done on an outpatient basis in our practice in Zurich and takes hardly more than a few minutes. Before the procedure, the corresponding skin areas are cleaned. Then the filler is injected evenly under the skin and gently distributed there. After the treatment, there may be slight swelling or skin redness around the injection sites, which should subside quickly. In the first few days after the treatment, we recommend avoiding direct sunlight and refraining from sauna or sports visits.

You will see the effects of the injection immediately! The treated areas appear plumper and tighter – the skin looks younger overall. The effect itself lasts between a few months and up to a year. With regular refreshments, even significantly longer.

What do Biostimulators and Skin Boosters do?

Biostimulators and Skin Boosters are innovative treatment methods with which we can reduce wrinkles and significantly improve the appearance of the skin. Biostimulators stimulate the production of the body's own collagen. This strengthens the skin structure sustainably, even over a very long period. Skin Boosters provide moisture and ensure fresher and more even skin. At the Swiss Derma Clinic in Zurich, we combine several methods together if desired.

Can side effects occur when injecting wrinkles?

Side effects can occur with all wrinkle treatments. Injecting active ingredients into the skin can cause bruises, redness, or moderate swelling around the injection sites. These are temporary and disappear after a few hours – and sometimes after a few days.

Talk to us in advance if you are taking blood thinners, are prone to bruises or scars, or are simply worried about possible risks and side effects. Basically, injecting wrinkles is a very safe method and requires no downtime compared to surgical lifting treatments. Since we work with highly compatible products, intolerances are extremely rare.

Most patients find the treatment not very pleasant, but not painful. If desired, we can prepare the skin beforehand with a light anesthetic.
