Reduce lines and wrinkles and enjoy a more youthful appearance with medical wrinkle treatment
Medical wrinkle treatment. Botulinum toxin is a muscle relaxant drug, which is used to treat patients medically and cosmetically. The area being treated is not numbed or numbed, but the muscles being treated are reduced in movement. This reduces the appearance of lines, giving a fresh, more youthful and natural appearance.
Botulinum toxin is not injected into wrinkles, but into the muscles that cause the wrinkles to form.
According to the Act on Drug Handling and guidelines from the Directorate of Health, only doctors can prescribe a treatment plan with Botox / botulinum toxin. Therefore, you must be assessed by one of our doctors prior to this type of treatment. The consultation is an approval for treatment for you at Deja Vu AS. Consultation with the doctor does not need to be renewed for the first 12 months, as long as your health condition does not change.
Treatment course
Step 1
All treatments begin with a consultation, which includes a facial analysis. The patient's desired results are discussed and together we design a treatment plan.
Step 2
After the consultation, the treatment can be administered. The procedure for injecting botulinum toxin is simple and takes a few minutes. A thin syringe is used to inject into the selected area. All treatments are performed with very little risk of complications.
Step 3
Before the patient leaves the clinic, you will receive written information about how to behave in the first period after the cosmetic procedure. We will set up a follow-up appointment 1-2 weeks after the procedure. Any adjustments to the result will be agreed with the therapist at the follow-up appointment.
