Pores and shine?
Skin Botox
The treatment spreads botulinum toxin through a shallow layer of skin. Start by sorting out whether pores and oil are the issue, or lines.
Book a consultationSkin Botox places small amounts of botulinum toxin type A in the shallow layer of skin rather than in the expression muscles. Same ingredient, different target. Wrinkle Botox goes after the muscles that make expressions, and the layer and the way the dose is divided are settled at your visit.
The layer is different
The depth is what separates them. Work on the expression muscles is wrinkle Botox; work in the skin layer above that is Skin Botox. Small amounts go out across a wide area instead of gathering in one spot.
A doctor prescribes and administers it
Botulinum toxin products are prescription medicines. Which product can be used, and whether to use one, is checked during the exam.

Before your consultation
What is Skin Botox?
It places small amounts of botulinum toxin type A in the shallow layer of skin rather than in the expression muscles. It is a prescription medicine, so a doctor prescribes and administers it.
How soon is the change noticeable, and how long does it run?
The moment you notice it and the length it runs split by area and by person. Nothing here is permanent, so when to repeat it and at what spacing gets discussed at your visit.
Does the treatment hurt?
How it registers is not the same for everyone. Raise it when we talk if pain feels like a burden.
Is there anything we should know before treatment?
Please tell us in advance about medications you take, earlier toxin treatments and how you reacted, muscle or nerve conditions, and pregnancy or breastfeeding. Whether any of it applies is checked during the exam.
