Bunnyline injections

The so-called bunny lines are fine to pronounced wrinkles on the sides of the nose, caused by increased activity of the facial muscles. They owe their name to their resemblance to the fine lines visible on a rabbit's whiskers.

These wrinkles can occur in both women and men and become more pronounced with age. This can make the skin in this area appear uneven or prematurely aged, which many sufferers find aesthetically displeasing and which can negatively impact their self-confidence.

Brow lifting with muscle relaxant

Why do so many people opt for a brow lift?
Today, eyebrows are among the most meticulously groomed areas of our face. They should suit the individual face shape, appear well-groomed, and form a harmonious frame for the eyes, much like a picture frame that perfectly showcases a work of art.

However, if the eyebrows are set too low or droop with age, the eyes appear smaller, more tired, and less open. Additionally, drooping eyebrows can contribute to hooded eyelids, which restrict the field of vision and put pressure on the upper eyelid.

A brow lift can significantly improve all these effects. By gently lifting the eyebrows, the eyes immediately appear more open, fresher, and more youthful, all without a complex procedure.

Questions & Answer

What is a muscle relaxant?

A muscle relaxant is a drug that temporarily reduces the activity of certain muscles.

By specifically relaxing the facial muscles, the overlying skin areas can smooth out, visibly reducing expression lines, for example on the forehead, frown lines or around the eyes.

The effect is temporary and wears off after a few months. The treatment is administered by specially trained medical professionals.

When should you start treatment?

The decision to begin muscle relaxant treatment is a very individual one. However, the general rule is: start sooner rather than later. Prevent wrinkles from forming in the first place by taking preventative measures with treatment.

When should you not inject a muscle relaxant?

Treatment with muscle relaxants should not be performed on pregnant or breastfeeding women, on individuals with certain neuromuscular diseases, or on individuals with allergies to botulinum toxin or albumin.

How long does it take for a treatment to take effect?

Muscle relaxants typically begin to take effect within a few days of treatment. The full effect is achieved after about two weeks.

What are the benefits of treatment with a muscle relaxant?
  • Effective wrinkle reduction:
    The active ingredient smooths wrinkles caused by facial expressions, relaxes the facial muscles and ensures a fresh, youthful complexion.
  • Minimal downtime:
    After the treatment, you can usually resume your usual activities immediately.
  • Painless application:
    The use of very fine needles makes the treatment well tolerated and only slightly painful.
  • Medical applications:
    In addition to aesthetic applications, the active ingredient can also help with migraines, teeth grinding (bruxism), masseter hypertrophy or hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating).
  • Preventive effect: Relaxed muscles prevent strong facial movements, which can slow down or reduce the formation of new wrinkles.
