Wrinkles on the Nose

Some people develop wrinkles at the root of the nose when they smile. While many consider these wrinkles insignificant, in some individuals they can be more pronounced, posing an aesthetic issue that requires treatment. The application of botulinum toxin is suitable, especially for those who are not fans of invasive and surgical methods for tightening the skin. This treatment allows for the removal and reduction of deeper wrinkles, making the skin firmer and rejuvenating the appearance. Discover how this non-invasive method can improve your appearance – a small step toward a radiant, confident look.

WHO IS THE NOSE WRINKLE TREATMENT FOR?

The botulinum toxin treatment for nose wrinkles is suitable for individuals who have bothersome wrinkles or lines around the sides of the nose and want to reduce them. These wrinkles typically appear during smiling or other facial movements. The treatment is intended for adults without serious health issues who have realistic expectations about the outcome.

HOW IS THE NOSE WRINKLE TREATMENT PERFORMED?

First, one of our doctors examines the entire face and analyzes the expressiveness of facial movements and muscle activity. Our experts also assess the quality of the patient’s skin. Based on this, they decide how much material will be injected.

Before the treatment, an anesthetic cream is applied to the face to ensure the procedure is completely painless. We use very fine needles.

Many patients report feeling no pain at all and often skip the use of local anesthesia.

The treatment takes only a few minutes and is performed on an outpatient basis. You can return to your social activities immediately after the treatment.

WHAT RESULTS CAN BE EXPECTED AFTER THE TREATMENT?

After the botulinum toxin treatment, you will notice that your skin appears rested and glowing, and no new wrinkles will form in the areas where the toxin was injected. Botulinum toxin temporarily relaxes the muscles and prevents their contractions, thus eliminating wrinkles and tightening and rejuvenating the skin.

You will notice the first effects within two to three days. The actual and final results will be visible 10 to 14 days after the treatment.

HOW LONG DOES THE EFFECT LAST?

The results become visible after 2-7 days, and the effect should last about 3-6 months. If treatments are repeated regularly, the muscles gradually reduce over time, thus prolonging and improving the aesthetic effect. New studies have shown that wrinkles in patients who have been treated with botulinum toxin for years can almost completely disappear.

WHAT TO KEEP IN MIND BEFORE AND AFTER THE NOSE WRINKLE TREATMENT?

Before the treatment, it is recommended to avoid taking blood-thinning medications, such as aspirin or ibuprofen, for a few days to reduce the risk of bruising.

After the treatment, it is important to avoid physical activities, sauna visits, and bending over strongly in the first few hours to prevent the botulinum toxin from spreading to other parts of the face. Additionally, you should avoid makeup and facial treatments for a few hours to avoid irritating the injection sites. It is important to follow the doctor’s instructions regarding aftercare and attend regular follow-ups to monitor the results and make any necessary adjustments.

WHAT POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS MAY OCCUR?

Adverse reactions during the botulinum toxin treatment are really rare. Short-term after the treatment, small, barely noticeable red bumps may appear at the injection sites, which usually disappear within a few hours. Headaches, pressure, bruising, and a feeling of heaviness are very rare side effects that, if they occur, typically go away within a few days.
