Facial wrinkles - where to start?

Expression wrinkles are caused by the work of facial muscles. The purpose of the consultation is not to freeze expression, but to assess which tensions can be safely alleviated while maintaining their natural character.

A description of the appearance or sensation is a conversation starter, but is not a diagnosis or indication for a specific procedure. The decision is influenced by anatomy, health, previous treatments, tissue quality and the expected nature of the change.

What might attract attention?

  • lines between the eyebrows visible when frowning
  • horizontal forehead lines that intensify when raising the eyebrows
  • wrinkles in the side eye area when smiling
  • the impression of a tense or stern facial expression despite a neutral mood
02 / ANALYSIS

What do we evaluate before choosing a method?

  • muscle dynamics at rest and in movement
  • the position of the eyebrows and the proportions of the upper part of the face
  • asymmetries and previous treatments
  • risk of excessive weakness of selected muscles

Not every visible change requires surgery. Sometimes it is more appropriate to care, observe, consult another specialist or consciously refrain from the procedure.

03 / POSSIBILITIES

What directions might be considered?

Botulinum toxin (Botox)

Considered after facial expression examination and medical qualification.

Skin quality

If the lines are permanent, the plan may also require working on the condition of the skin.

The final scope, preparation, number of stages and cost are determined individually after medical qualification.

04 / KNOWLEDGE

Forehead wrinkles, lion's frown and crow's feet

The most frequently discussed issues during consultations include horizontal forehead wrinkles, the lion's wrinkle between the eyebrows and crow's feet on the side of the eyes. Although they are all related to facial expressions, they require a separate assessment of muscle function, eyebrow positioning, natural asymmetries and the proportions of the entire upper part of the face.

Botulinum toxin in aesthetic medicine is used to temporarily reduce the activity of appropriately qualified muscles. The purpose of a well-planned procedure is to relieve excessive tension, not to deprive the face of expression. Permanent lines visible also at rest may require additional work on the quality of the skin and do not always disappear after one method.

05 / CONSULTATION

What does it look like to make a decision?

The conversation covers your goal, health status, medications, allergies, and previous procedures. Then Dr Małgorzata Osikowicz analyzes indications, contraindications, alternatives and possible limitations. The treatment does not have to take place on the same day.

07 / FAQ

The most common
questions.

What wrinkles is botulinum toxin used for?

It is most often considered for wrinkles that depend on muscle activity, including those on the forehead, between the eyebrows and around the eyes. The exact areas and scope are determined by the doctor after examining facial expressions.

Will the face look natural after the treatment?

Naturalness depends on qualifications, anatomy, dose and location of points. The plan is to alleviate excessive muscle work while maintaining the individual character of the face.

Can I choose the treatment myself?

You can indicate the need and expected direction of change. However, the selection of the procedure requires examination and qualifications.

Can the procedure be performed during the first consultation?

It may be possible, but it is not an assumption. The most important things are safety, time for an informed decision and the right plan.

Will the result be identical to someone else's photo?

No. The anatomy, tissues and response of the body are individual. Photos may illustrate direction but do not guarantee identical results.

When will I know the exact cost?

After defining the scope and stages. The current price list shows approximate prices for individual procedures.
