Botox & toxins in Gangnam, Seoul
Every botulinum toxin treatment we offer in one place — from softening expression lines and slimming the jaw to calming excessive sweating, with doses planned by MIN Clinic physicians.
What are botulinum toxin treatments used for?
Botulinum toxin injections temporarily block the nerve signals that make a muscle contract or a sweat gland activate. In aesthetic dermatology they smooth dynamic wrinkles, slim an enlarged jaw muscle, lift the brow slightly and reduce excessive underarm or palm sweating, with effects lasting roughly 3–6 months. Treatments take minutes and need no downtime, which makes them popular with visitors on short trips.
Brands such as Botox and Xeomin share the same active ingredient but differ in formulation. Your doctor recommends the product and dose according to the area, your treatment history and the result you want.

Botulinum toxin questions we hear most
Can’t find your answer? Message our English-speaking team on WhatsApp.
Is Botox the same as botulinum toxin?
Botox is one brand of botulinum toxin type A. Xeomin and other brands contain the same active ingredient but differ in formulation, which is why doctors sometimes use the generic term.
How long do toxin results last?
Most results last about 3–6 months for wrinkles and jaw slimming; sweat reduction often lasts several months too. Repeat treatment maintains the effect.
Can I get Botox during a short trip to Seoul?
Yes. Treatment takes minutes with no downtime. Ideally allow two weeks for a review, but if you leave sooner we plan conservative doses.
What are the risks?
Mild bruising, swelling or headache are most common; temporary eyelid or brow heaviness is rare. Toxin is avoided in pregnancy, breastfeeding and some neuromuscular disorders.
Can toxin be combined with fillers?
Often. Toxin relaxes movement while fillers restore volume — see wrinkle treatment for combined plans.
