How long does Botox last?

On average Botox lasts about 3–6 months. Your metabolism, muscle strength, activity level and the area treated all affect how long it lasts, so regular top-ups are needed to maintain the result.

Does Botox prevent or correct wrinkles?

Both. It softens existing dynamic wrinkles by relaxing the muscles that cause them, and regular low-dose "preventative" Botox in your late 20s or early 30s can help stop dynamic lines from forming.

Botox, Dysport or Xeomin: which is better?

There is no single best product. Some people respond better to one brand than another, and some find Dysport spreads a little more or works slightly faster. Overall duration is similar. Kleam offers Korean, Korean premium and anti-resistance toxins as well as UK Dysport, German Xeomin and USA Allergan, and our consultation manager will help you choose.

How many units of Botox do I need?

It depends on the area and on you. Larger or stronger muscles, frequent intense exercise, a fast metabolism or deeper wrinkles can mean more units. The dose is confirmed at your consultation.

Is there recovery time after Botox?

Treatment takes about 10–30 minutes and most people return to normal activities straight away. Avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours, lying down for about 90 minutes and rubbing the area for about 4 hours. Minor pain, bruising or swelling can occur and usually resolves within a week.

What is the right age for Botox?

Cosmetic Botox is not offered under 18. Many people start wrinkle treatments in their 30s or 40s, while preventative "baby Botox" and treatments such as a gummy smile correction are common in the 20s.

Can Botox treat all types of wrinkles?

Botox works best on dynamic wrinkles and early signs of ageing. Deep, static lines may need other options such as fillers, lifting or surgery, though Botox can still complement them.

How it works

How Botox works

Like other muscles, the muscles of the face develop habits: furrowing the brows, crinkling the eyes or clenching the jaw. Over time these repeated movements fold the skin and create lines. Botox temporarily weakens the targeted muscle, so it cannot keep creasing the skin, and existing dynamic lines soften while the skin gets a chance to rest.

Botulinum toxin was approved by the US FDA for cosmetic use in 2002, and Dysport followed in 2009. Treatment usually takes 10–30 minutes, results appear within a few days and reach full effect over 1–2 weeks, and they typically last 3–6 months. Botox can also be combined with fillers or skin rejuvenation treatments.
