JECT Clinics | Muscle Relaxers Amsterdam

If you're looking for a reliable cosmetic clinic for botox treatment in Amsterdam, you've come to the right place. Whether you suffer from wrinkles, a tight expression, recurring headaches, or excessive perspiration, we offer a range of cosmetic treatments tailored to your specific needs. In this comprehensive guide, we discuss the benefits, effects, safety and process of botox treatments at our clinic.

What is botox and how does it work?

Botox, or botulinum toxin, is a neuromodulator that temporarily reduces muscle activity by blocking the transmission of nerve signals to the muscles. This causes the treated muscles to relax, smoothing the skin above them and reducing fine lines and wrinkles. Botox is often used to treat frown lines, crow's feet, and forehead wrinkles, but can also be used for medical purposes such as treating excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) and even tension headaches.
‍
Botox is injected in extremely small amounts into specific muscle groups, causing these muscles to temporarily relax. This prevents the skin from contracting, leading to smoother, younger-looking skin. Because botox works only on the injected muscles, other parts of your face remain able to move normally, providing a natural look.

Safety and effectiveness of botox

The use of botox is recognized worldwide as a safe and effective method for both cosmetic and medical purposes. At our clinic, we only work with experienced and certified cosmetic doctors who specialize in botox and fillers. This allows us to guarantee that treatments are performed safely and that you will achieve the desired effect.
‍
Although botox is generally safe, some side effects may occur. After treatment, slight swelling, redness or bruising may occur around the injection site. These effects usually disappear within a few days. Some people may experience temporary headaches or a tight feeling in the treated area. This often subsides on its own within a few days.

To pursue an effective and natural-looking botox treatment, it is essential to choose a clinic with qualified professionals who know exactly how and where to inject botox.

What can you expect after a botox treatment?

After undergoing botox treatment, there are a few things to keep in mind to achieve the best results. It is important not to lie flat for the first six hours after treatment and not to touch the treated area. This prevents the botox from moving to other parts of the face, which can have unwanted effects. It is also advised to avoid strenuous physical activity, such as exercising or lifting heavy objects, for the first two days. Visits to the sauna, spa or swimming pool are also not recommended because they can increase blood circulation, potentially making the botox less effective.
‍
Most people notice the effect of botox within three to five days after treatment, with a peak effect after about two weeks. It is normal for the full effect of botox to take two weeks because it takes time for the muscles to fully relax.

How often should you repeat a botox treatment?

The effects of botox last an average of three to four months. To maintain consistent results, it is recommended that you repeat the treatment regularly. As you undergo the treatment more often, the duration of the effect may increase, possibly reducing the need to repeat the treatment. In some cases, it may be necessary to undergo a new treatment only after six or seven months. The exact duration of effect, in addition to the type and amount of botox, also depends very much on your personal metabolism and lifestyle. Some people find that their botox lasts longer by living a healthier lifestyle and avoiding factors that can accelerate the breakdown of botox, such as smoking and excessive sun exposure.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the difference between botox and fillers?

Botox and fillers are often mentioned together, but they have different uses. Botox relaxes muscles to reduce wrinkles, while fillers are used to add volume to areas such as the lips or cheeks. Fillers can also help fill deeper wrinkles that cannot be treated with botox. While botox works by addressing the cause of wrinkles, muscle contraction, fillers work by adding volume and improving the contours of the face.

2. What are the risks of botox treatment?

Although botox is generally safe, some side effects can occur. These are usually mild and temporary, such as minor bruising, swelling or tightness. However, it is important to have your treatment performed by an experienced doctor to minimize the risk of complications. Serious side effects are rare, but can occur if the botox spreads to other muscle areas of the face. Therefore, it is critical that the treatment be performed by a doctor with in-depth knowledge of facial anatomy.

3. Can botox help with excessive perspiration?

Yes, botox can be very effective in reducing excessive sweating, especially in the armpits. The treatment temporarily blocks nerve signals to the sweat glands, significantly reducing sweat production. This effect can last for several months, after which the treatment must be repeated to maintain results. Botox for hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) is a recognized medical treatment and can make a huge difference in the daily lives of people who suffer from excessive sweating.
