The Most Sought-After Cosmetic Procedure in Every Season—Botulinum Toxin Injections

Ludmila Stavro–Freiberga, head of the «Panacea Premium»  beauty clinic, talks about the popularity of botulinum toxin injections.

“I do not have precise information about whether this procedure is also in demand at other clinics in Latvia, but I can confirm that at our «Panacea Premium» clinic, botulinum toxin injections are in record-high demand, ranking first both in internet search queries and in appointments requested at the clinic.”

On the one hand, botulinum toxin injections are the most controversial procedure—various myths, fears, and inaccurate information surround them. On the other hand, they are the fastest solution for combating facial expression lines of varying severity and even more.

The effects of botulinum toxin injections do not appear immediately, but over the course of two weeks. From “smoker’s lines” to “Bugs Bunny lines”

Usually, our body’s response to botulinum toxin injections becomes apparent within two weeks—the muscles relax and the wrinkles disappear.

The main indications for botulinum toxin are wrinkles in the upper third of the face, forehead wrinkles, horizontal forehead lines, frown lines between the eyebrows, lines around the nose, lines around the eyes, also known as “crow’s feet,” “Bugs Bunny lines,” and perioral lines—wrinkles around the mouth (also called “smoker’s lines,” although in reality they are not related to smoking; simply, as people age, they tend to purse their lips more tightly, for example, because of discomfort, which can lead to horizontal lines above the upper lip or below the lower lip).

From a third bra size to sweating—botulinum toxin injections have considerably more actual indications than we think

Botulinum toxin injections can quickly and beautifully lift the corners of the mouth. They can also address the problem of a “gummy smile”—an excellent solution when too much of the gums above the upper teeth is exposed while smiling.

Botulinum toxin can also help with correcting the facial contour, relieving tension in the neck area, improving the aesthetics of the lower third of the face, and combating wrinkles in the décolleté area—in particular, vertical wrinkles in women with a third bra size or larger. 

Botulinum toxin is also excellent for excessive sweating. In general, sweating is a normal function of the human body. However, pathological sweating also exists, when a person’s armpits are constantly damp and sweaty. This is particularly problematic for people who appear in public, as they must constantly think about choosing the right clothing.

“We wish you health and beauty all year round!” Ludmila Stavro–Freiberga concludes her story.

“And there is no need to be afraid of botulinum toxin injections—everything will be fine if you are in the hands of experienced, certified specialists!”
