WRINKLE TREATMENT WITH BOTULINUM TOXIN

There is no question: Skin care, a healthy, low-stress lifestyle and a balanced diet are essential prerequisites for a smooth face with a radiant complexion. However, biological aging processes and the associated formation of wrinkles cannot be stopped in this way. One of the most effective forms of treatment, however, is the use of botulinum toxin. It has been used for more than 20 years: millions of times, worldwide and with a very high level of safety.

Botox, as the original drug was called when it was officially approved in 2002, is a neurotoxin. It acts on the connection between nerve and muscle cells and reduces the release of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. It can specifically weaken increased muscle activity. In this way, dynamic wrinkles in particular, which are activated during facial movement, can be precisely influenced and effectively reduced. With low dosages (so-called "baby botox"), preventive effects can also be achieved, for example by reducing the formation of wrinkles. But botulinum toxin can deliver so much more: We use it to effectively treat severe, involuntary grinding of teeth (bruxism) and excessive sweating. An absolute miracle weapon is the use of botulinum toxin in the treatment of migraines - at JJPS Berlin we have our own consultation hours for this.
 

Botulinum toxin - actually a neurotoxin - is, so to speak, a potent all-rounder in the skilled medical hand. Don't worry, an overdose is impossible in the dosages in which it is offered in Germany.
 

By the way: Current studies show - due to the positive neurofeedback - the benefit of botulinum toxin also against depression.

​

Important for vegans: Botulinum toxin itself is vegan because it is produced from bacterial cultures under laboratory conditions. However, the legally required testing of each individual production unit is problematic, because some manufacturers still use the so-called LD50 test with mice to test the individual batches. However, the supplier of our botulinum toxin has been testing its products in cell cultures for many years, i.e. without the use of test animals. Thus, a botulinum toxin treatment with us is also harmless for vegans.
 

Attention!: Botulinum toxin may only be administered by doctors, but not by members of other professional groups, such as alternative practitioners who work in the field of aesthetic medicine. This restriction is for patient safety. Because only the medical qualifications of the treating persons and the use of first-class products offer the highest guarantee for reliable applications of sensitive neurotoxic proteins in precise dosage. Mishandling can lead to drastic complications!
