Relaxing injections to reduce facial wrinkles in Geneva
Certain substances used in aesthetic medicine can specifically relax the muscles responsible for expression lines. These treatments, which have been used for several decades in various medical specialties, have proven their effectiveness in treating the visible signs of facial aging. They are particularly appreciated for their relaxing action: injected into the facial muscles, they reduce excessive contraction in certain areas while maintaining a natural and toned expression. This moderate relaxation of the muscles helps soften facial features, particularly in the forehead, glabella (frown line) and the eye contour. The goal is to restore a harmonious balance between the facial muscles at rest and in movement, in order to smooth dynamic wrinkles without freezing expressions.
On which areas of the face should it be used?
Injections intended to relax the muscles responsible for expression lines are most often performed in the upper third of the face.
What happens after the injection?
The effect of injections does not appear immediately. The first results generally appear between 3 and 4 days after the session, and the optimal effect is observed around 14 days. These treatments allow a natural smoothing of the upper area of the face, reducing severe or tired expressions. The effects are temporary, with an average duration of action of 4 to 6 months.
What are the precautions after an injection?
On the day of the session, it is advisable to avoid rubbing, massaging, or pressing on the treated areas. It is also best not to engage in intense sporting activity or expose yourself to heat (sun, sauna, steam room) for several hours afterward.
Wrinkle treatment
Some injectable treatments are used to reduce expression lines on the upper part of the face, particularly on the forehead, between the eyebrows (frown lines) and around the eyes (crow's feet). They also help prevent the appearance of static wrinkles in these areas by reducing the muscle activity responsible for repeated contractions. The treatment is based on several superficial micro-injections in the targeted areas, such as the forehead or the orbicularis oculi muscles. It is carried out using very fine syringes, making the procedure virtually painless. The session is quick, lasting from a few minutes to around twenty minutes depending on the needs and the areas to be treated.
Mini-dose
Prevention is essential to preserve the harmony and natural charm of the face. It is possible to act upstream, even before the first wrinkles appear, to maintain smooth, age-free skin. Targeted micro-injections gently relax certain areas of the face, smoothing features without freezing them. This gentle approach effectively helps slow skin aging and prevent the formation of dermal breaks.
Non-surgical eyebrow lift or brow lift
There is an injection technique that can lift the eyebrow line and open the eyes naturally. By precisely targeting certain areas around the eyebrows, this treatment offers a real lifting effect, giving the face a more youthful and dynamic expression. The principle is based on muscular modulation: by reducing the action of the muscles that pull the eyebrows downward, and leaving the frontalis muscle - responsible for their elevation - fully active, a harmonious rebalancing of the muscular structure is achieved. This precision work aims to open the eyes while maintaining natural expressions, for a subtle and elegant result.
Treatment of excessive sweating or hyperhidrosis
Excessive sweating, also known as hyperhidrosis, refers to an abnormally high production of sweat by the sweat glands. These glands, located in the deep layer of the skin, have the primary role of helping the body maintain a stable temperature. In most cases, this excessive sweating is not linked to a particular pathology. To treat this discomfort, Dr. Saglam offers localized micro-injections in the armpits. These temporarily rest the glands responsible for excessive sweating, thus providing lasting relief. The effect of this treatment can last for a period of six to nine months.
Gummy smile
A gummy smile is characterized by partial or total exposure of the gums when smiling, which can disrupt the aesthetic balance between the teeth and gums. A microinjection treatment, performed very precisely in the upper lip lift muscle and the nasal ala, can reduce this exposure and create a more harmonious smile. The effect is generally visible within two weeks and lasts for approximately six months.
Jawline slimming or refining the oval of the face
When the masseter muscles are hypertrophied, they can give the face an angular appearance and a wide jawline. This excessive volume can be reduced through localized injections, which work by gradually relaxing these muscles. This approach allows for a natural refinement of facial contours while rebalancing the facial oval. This treatment can also be offered in certain cases of muscle tension in the jaw, often linked to involuntary or nocturnal clenching. The result is visible between six and eight weeks after the session and lasts for approximately six months.
Nefertiti lift
The Nefertiti Lift is a non-surgical aesthetic treatment that aims to reshape the oval of the face and firm the neck area. It involves performing targeted injections in the lower part of the face and along the mandibular line. These injections tighten the skin, redefine the contours of the jaw, and achieve a subtle but visible lifting effect, giving the neck and lower face a firmer and more harmonious appearance.
