F.A.Q

In the last few years, we have noticed a rejuvenation of the patient base (before 30 years old), surely influenced by social networks like instagram and tiktok.

From a medical point of view, it is true that blocking the contraction at a young age and over a long period of time slows down the formation of wrinkles. A study published in the scientific literature shows that two twins were followed over 13 years, one having received botox treatment for years and the other not. The one who received botox over a long period of time had fewer wrinkles.
