Anti-wrinkle injections in Geneva
Anti-wrinkle injections relax the muscles behind expression lines such as frown lines and crow's feet. They are a medical act, performed by a doctor after a consultation. Here is how to approach them by indication.
Expression lines, not every wrinkle
These injections work on lines caused by repeated muscle movement, such as frown lines between the brows or lines around the eyes. They do not address every type of wrinkle, which is why an assessment matters: a doctor decides whether the indication fits.
We describe this by indication rather than by brand name, in line with the Swiss rules. The point is the result you are looking for, not the label on the product.
Natural movement is the goal
Done well, the aim is to soften lines while keeping natural expression, not to freeze the face. The dose and the points are adjusted to you, and a careful doctor would rather do less than too much.
The effect develops over a few days and is not permanent. No result can be guaranteed, and the consultation is where limits and risks are explained.
From consultation to follow-up
It starts with a medical consultation: nothing is injected without a prior assessment.
Consultation
The doctor assesses the indication and explains options, limits and risks.
The act
If indicated, the injection is performed by the doctor, with your informed consent.
Follow-up
A review checks the result a few days later and adjusts if needed.
Before the injection
- Mention your history, allergies and current treatments.
- Pregnancy, breastfeeding and certain conditions are contra-indications.
- The aim is natural movement, not a frozen look.
- Performed by a doctor, never in a beauty salon.
Your questions
How long does the effect last?
It is temporary and fades gradually, so it is sometimes refreshed. The exact duration varies from person to person.
Will my face look frozen?
Not with a measured approach. The aim is to soften lines while keeping natural expression; the dose is adjusted to you.
When will I see the effect?
It develops over a few days rather than immediately. A follow-up can check the result and adjust if needed.
Who performs it?
A doctor, after a consultation. It is a medical act and is not performed in a beauty salon.
