BOTOX INJECTION IN PARIS

The appearance of wrinkles often becomes a concern as early as the thirties, for both men and women. Despite daily skincare, anti-aging creams, or facial exercises, the muscles responsible for wrinkles remain strong and eventually mark the face. A botulinum toxin injection session offers an effective solution to smooth these lines without surgery.

• Forehead Botox helps reduce horizontal wrinkles that give a tired or worried look.
• The Botox injection for crow’s feet softens the eye contour and brightens the gaze.
• Glabellar Botox (frown lines) corrects the vertical folds between the eyebrows, often linked to expressions of concentration.
• Nose Botox reduces the fine lines that appear when smiling.
• Finally, Eyebrow Botox slightly lifts the tail of the eyebrow and opens up the gaze without surgery.

This non-invasive technique has gradually replaced the forehead lift, offering a natural and precise alternative for treating wrinkles in the upper third of the face.

Some people choose to start Baby Botox treatments even before wrinkles have formed, to prevent their appearance and limit their development.

Botox injection sessions are performed by Dr. Djian at his medical office at 5 Square Thiers, 75016 Paris, and include the following steps:

• Initial consultation: the patient explains their expectations, and Dr. Djian performs a morphological facial analysis to propose a personalized treatment plan.
• Checking for contraindications: Dr. Djian ensures that the patient has no contraindications for the injection. Avoid taking aspirin for at least 5 days prior to the session.
• Marking the injection points: the treatment areas are identified and marked.
• Disinfection of injection sites (preferably arrive without makeup).
• Injection: the procedure lasts about 5 minutes.
• Post-injection: the patient can resume normal activities immediately after the session.

The first effects become visible after about 4 days, with a maximum effect around 10 days. Results typically last between 4 and 6 months, after which a new session may be considered.

POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS OF BOTOX

Botulinum toxin injections are generally well tolerated, but some temporary side effects may occur:

• Redness or mild bruising at the injection site
• Sensation of tightness or slight discomfort in the treated muscles
• Temporary headaches after the injection
• Slight facial asymmetry (rare and can be corrected with a touch-up)
• Temporary drooping of the eyelids (ptosis), often due to slight product diffusion

These side effects usually subside within a few days and do not require medical intervention.

CONTRAINDICATIONS TO BOTOX

Botulinum toxin injections are contraindicated in the following cases:

• Pregnancy and breastfeeding
• Neuromuscular disorders (e.g., myasthenia, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis)
• Known allergy to botulinum toxin or any component of the product
• Use of anticoagulants or medications affecting blood clotting (to be discussed with the physician)
• Active skin infections or lesions at the injection site

Before any injection, a personalized consultation with Dr. Djian ensures that no contraindications are present and that the treatment is completely safe.

POST-INJECTION GUIDELINES

After a Botox injection, it is recommended to:

• Avoid lying down within two hours following the injection
• Do not massage or rub the treated areas
• Avoid excessive heat (sauna, steam room, intense exercise) for 24 hours
• Avoid taking aspirin or anti-inflammatory drugs without medical advice

Not all Botox indications fall within the field of aesthetic medicine. In addition to wrinkle treatment, Botox is also used to:

• Reduce excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) in the underarm area
• Treat bruxism (involuntary teeth grinding, often at night, which can cause jaw pain and dental wear)
• Treat facial paralysis
