NOSE MUSCLES TARGETED BY BOTOX: UNDERSTANDING THEIR ROLE AND ACTION

The effectiveness of Botulinum toxin depends on a detailed knowledge of facial anatomy, which is why injections cannot be placed in just any hands. The nose is a dynamic zone in constant interaction with the mouth, lips and smile.

The main muscles are :

• The depressor muscle of the nasal septum (depressor septi nasi): it pulls the nose tip downwards, creating a "plunging nose" appearance, particularly when smiling.
• The elevator muscle of the nose wing and upper lip (levator labii superioris alaeque nasi): when too active, it lifts the lip and excessively exposes the gums (gingival smile).
• Lateral nasal muscles (nasalis): responsible for the famous bunny linesThese oblique wrinkles are visible on the sides of the nose when we smile or wrinkle our face.
• Interactions with the perioral muscles lip orbicularis and smile muscles. If this group is too contractile, it accentuates asymmetries and can aggravate tip sagging.

This is why a aesthetic doctor always observes the face at rest and in motion before deciding on injection points.

INDICATIONS: WHEN SHOULD A BOTOX INJECTION BE CONSIDERED?

TO CORRECT THE TIP OF THE NOSE

Drooping nose tip

The drooping tip, also known as the "plunging nose", is one of the most frequent reasons for consultation. This phenomenon can have two origins anatomical predispositionwhen the depressor muscle of the nasal septum exerts a permanent downward pull, or theagewhich leads to a weakening of the supporting cartilage. In both cases, the result is often unpleasant: with each smile, the tip sinks, accentuating the impression of a tired face.

This procedure, performed in just a few minutes, does not require no surgery or convalescence.

"Bunny lines" on the nose

Their nickname, "rabbit wrinklesA little wrinkle on the nose," evokes an endearing little wrinkle on the nose. Over time, however, these fine lines can become embarrassing and permanent.

While they are initially only visible in motion, they can become more pronounced at rest as the skin loses its elasticity and collagen. Smoking, skin dehydration and sun exposure accelerate this process.

In targeted micro-injections, it relaxes the muscular action responsible, offering a natural result: the nose looks smoother, the face more rested, while retaining the freshness of a spontaneous smile.

Results The base of the nose appears thinner, the wings less flared and the overall profile more harmonious.
