Quick answer

What is Botox?

Botox is a brand of botulinum toxin, a purified protein injected in tiny doses to temporarily relax specific muscles. It softens dynamic wrinkles such as forehead lines, frown lines and crow’s feet, and can slim a wide jaw or calves. Effects appear within 3–14 days and last about 3–6 months. There is no downtime, so it fits easily into a short trip.

MIN Clinic offers several botulinum toxin products, including Botox and Xeomin. The doctor matches product and dose to the area and to how expressive you want to remain.

FAQ

Botox questions we hear most

Can’t find your answer? Message our English-speaking team on WhatsApp.

How long does Botox last?

Botox typically lasts about 3–6 months. Jaw and calf treatments often last a little longer than lines around the eyes.

Will I look frozen?

Not when dosed carefully. The aim is to soften lines while keeping natural expression.

What should I avoid after Botox?

Avoid lying flat, rubbing the area, saunas and strenuous exercise for about 4 hours to a day.

Is Botox safe?

In experienced hands it is very safe. Temporary effects can include small bruises, headache or, rarely, a drooping brow or eyelid that resolves as the toxin wears off.

What is the difference between Botox and Xeomin?

Both are botulinum toxin type A. Xeomin contains no accessory proteins, which some doctors prefer for frequent treatment.
