What types of botox in Amsterdam are there?
In our practice we use the Botox® / Vistabel® brands. These are brand names for the highly diluted Botulinum A toxin, which is injected directly into the muscle under the skin with a very thin needle. At our practice you get the original product of Allergan (botox as 100E vial and Vistabel as 50E vial) and you are sure of reliability and stability in terms of operation and quality. Your cosmetic doctor will determine which type is most suitable for you and the desired result. With us quality and safety are of paramount importance. We therefore only use these reliable and well-known brands.
Botox or Bocouture is used for four applications in our practice:
– Excessive sweating (perspiration)
Do you suffer from excessive sweating (perspiration)? Then botox in Amsterdam can be a good solution. The botox is then applied to the places where you suffer a lot of sweat. Often these are the armpits, the feet or the palms. Because of the botox, the sweat glands are made less active, so they produce less sweat. You do not have to worry any more about dark spots in your clothes or a heated feeling. Instead, you will feel fresh, dry and clean longer. On this separate page the application in the face is discussed. For the treatment of armpits, palms or soles due to excessive sweating (perspiration), click here.
– Headache and migraine
Headaches and migraines are annoying symptoms that can last for a long time. Especially migraines can cause severe attacks of pain. You may therefore not be able to work or perform daily tasks. Botox in Amsterdam can offer a solution for these nasty complaints. It has been discovered that as a side effect of botulin treatment, some people report a reduction in their headache or migraine complaints. This is probably because botox temporarily paralyzes the muscles. Headache can arise because you unconsciously tighten the muscles in your face and on your skull. This can be done by, for example, stress and stress. If the muscles are less tense, the headache may decrease.

– Wrinkles
The disadvantage of aging is that more and more wrinkles are slowly developing. The skin loses elasticity. Other points also have a negative effect on the skin, such as the sun, smoking and stress. Your facial expression also causes certain wrinkles. For example, if you frown a lot, you will experience a frown wrinkle sooner.
A lot of laughter causes wrinkles around the mouth and crow’s feet around the eyes. These wrinkles will become increasingly deeper over time. This damage is irreversible, but botox in Amsterdam can reduce and prevent the wrinkles. Botulinum A toxine is injected directly into the facial muscle. This weakens the relevant muscle and reduces the tension in the skin. However, the natural facial expressions remain intact. Because the muscles are not always tightened, the skin stays flatter. This reduces the formation of new wrinkles.
The areas that qualify for treatment are the wrinkles caused by activity of the facial muscles, such as forehead folds, the crow’s feet and in rare cases the folds between lower lip and chin and in the neck. Repetition of the injections is usually necessary at the beginning and can take place with a minimum interval of three months.
By regularly undergoing a new treatment you get the best result. It also prevents the treated wrinkles from appearing again quickly.
– Teeth grinding or jaw clamp (bruxism)
Teeth grinding (bruxism) means that when you are sleeping your jaws firmly clamp together and your teeth and teeth are pushed over each other. This not only causes damage to the teeth, but also pain complaints. During the grinding of your teeth your chewing muscles are tightened, to wake you up with cramp in your jaw muscles or in the other muscles in your face. To prevent serious damage to your teeth, you can have Botox in Amsterdam injected. The botox makes the jaw muscles slightly less powerful, so that the teeth grinding is reduced.

What are the benefits of botox in Amsterdam?
Using botox in Amsterdam has several advantages. Most people think at the word ‘botox’ to reduce wrinkles for a beautiful smooth and youthful face. Botox is indeed a very good solution for both fine and deep wrinkles. Unfortunately, it is not possible to maintain a tight skin. Even if you take good care of your skin, wrinkles will eventually develop. This is because the skin ages, can renew less quickly and because the elasticity decreases.
