Aesthetic medicine professionals have long used botulinum toxin for its muscle-relaxing properties. Applied in a targeted manner, BOTOX reduces wrinkles on the lower face, providing a non-surgical and natural solution to restore youthful skin.

Understanding Lower Facial Wrinkles
La Maison Didon - Aesthetic medicine

Lower facial lines, often called expression lines, appear around the mouth, chin, and jawline. These marks of time can result from repetitive movements of facial muscles, natural aging of the skin and exposure to environmental elements. Although these wrinkles are a natural sign of aging, we offer refined solutions to help our patients achieve a more youthful, revitalized appearance.
Botulinum Toxin: A Subtle Weapon Against Lower Facial Wrinkles
How Botulinum Toxin Treatment Works
During a BOTOX treatment session at La Maison Didon, our team precisely targets areas with wrinkles on the lower face. Then, botulinum toxin is injected with extreme precision into the muscles responsible for these wrinkles. Thus, botulinum toxin works by inhibiting muscle contraction, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and providing rejuvenated skin.

Contraindications

1. Pregnancy and Breastfeeding
Pregnant or breastfeeding women are generally advised against receiving botulinum toxin injections. No comprehensive study has yet fully evaluated the effects of botulinum toxin on the fetus or infant. As a precaution, it is best to avoid any potential risks during this delicate period.
2. Known Allergic Reactions to Botulinum Toxin
If you have already had allergic reactions to botulinum toxin or its components, it is imperative to report this to our medical team during the prior consultation. In this case, allergy testing may be recommended to ensure the safety of the treatment.
3. Myasthenia Gravis or Other Muscular Disorders
People with neuromuscular disorders, such as myasthenia gravis, are generally not good candidates for botulinum toxin treatment. Indeed, an in-depth consultation with our professionals at La Maison Didon will allow us to assess whether botulinum toxin is appropriate based on your general state of health.
4. Active Skin Infections
If there are active skin infections in the targeted area, it is best to postpone treatment until the infection has completely resolved. Indeed, applying botulinum toxin to infected skin can worsen the situation and lead to complications.
5. Taking Certain Medications
Individuals with blood clotting disorders or taking anticoagulants require further evaluation before undergoing BOTOX treatment. Indeed, excessive bruising can occur in these people. Therefore, additional precautions will be taken to minimize this risk.
6. Blood Clotting Disorders
Certain medications, such as aminoglycoside antibiotics, may interact with botulinum toxin and increase the risk of complications. Always inform our medical team of all medications you are currently taking to avoid any unwanted interactions.
Precautions and Potential Side Effects
Although we consider botulinum toxin to be generally safe, it is important to take precautions to avoid adverse effects. At La Maison Didon, we inform our patients about potential side effects and ensure that each treatment is tailored to their individual condition. Additionally, temporary redness and slight swelling may occur, but these effects usually disappear within a few days.
At La Maison Didon, we understand the importance of treating lower facial wrinkles in a way that preserves the natural harmony of your appearance. Thus, botulinum toxin, used competently, can be an effective solution to regain glowing and youthful skin.
