Anti-Wrinkle Injections in Lisbon

Anti-wrinkle injections are one of the most effective aesthetic medicine treatments for smoothing wrinkles and expression lines. The active ingredient is botulinum toxin – the substance recognised internationally as the gold-standard treatment for dynamic expression lines, widely used in aesthetic medicine clinics around the world.

Botulinum toxin works at the muscular level: it temporarily blocks the nerve signals that cause the facial muscles responsible for wrinkles to contract. The result is smoother, more rested-looking skin, without losing natural expressiveness.

There is no set age to begin treatment. Anti-wrinkle injections are suitable both for those who want to prevent expression lines from deepening, and for those who want to soften existing wrinkles. The doctor assesses each case individually and defines the most appropriate protocol.

When is it recommended?

• To prevent the formation or deepening of expression lines from an earlier age
• To smooth existing wrinkles on the forehead, between the brows and around the eyes
• As a complement to hyaluronic acid filler for a more complete facial rejuvenation

Step 1 – Evaluation

Book your evaluation consultation. The doctor assesses your face, identifies areas of muscular tension, and defines a personalised treatment plan.

Step 2 – First consultation at the clinic

During the consultation, you will have the opportunity to discuss the treatment, the results you want to achieve, and ask any questions with our specialist doctor.

Step 3 – Treatment

The session begins with cleansing and disinfecting the skin. Botulinum toxin is then applied in small doses using a very fine needle, with minimal discomfort. Injections are placed at precise intervals across the treatment area, according to the pre-defined plan. Each session takes approximately 30 minutes.

Step 4 – Post-treatment and results

Initial results become visible between 2 and 5 days after treatment. The full effect is reached at around two weeks, when wrinkles and expression lines are visibly softened and the skin takes on a fresher, more youthful appearance. A touch-up can be performed between 10 and 21 days if needed. Maintenance is recommended every 4 to 6 months.

Note: side effects are generally mild and temporary, typically resolving within 48 hours. See the FAQ section below for more detail.
