Like the skin of the entire body, facial skin, too, is subject to permanent aging processes. In the course of life, the proportion of elastic fibres decreases and gravity pulls the skin down.
Over the years, glabellar frown lines, laugh lines, and all kinds of expression lines appear on the face. Additionally, the aging process is greatly accelerated by external influences.
While muscle relaxant medication is often used to treat expression lines, hyaluronic acid is suited for filling skin lines and larger tissue defects. Wrinkle treatment with autologous fat is very well suited to refill lacking fat depots in the face and thus to restore a younger look. At Park-Klink Birkenwerder/Berlin, even deep folds between nose and mouth can be very well filled with autologous fat.
Please do not hesitate to contact us for a personal consultation. Our surgeons will review, explain in detail, and discuss your options regarding »wrinkle treatments« at Park-Klinik Birkenwerder/Berlin.
On the forehead, 11 lines or glabellar frown lines are often considered bothersome. They are due to excessive contraction of small muscles located between the root of the nose and the brows. Basically, there are two treatment options:
It does not make a lot of sense to only use injectable fillers, because muscle tension will continue to crease the skin and thus to cause the folds.
The treatment of expression lines and folds with muscle relaxant medication is a common procedure in plastic surgery and it is considered to be safe because of the many years of experience in clinical use. It is an in-office treatment, and apart from a mild burning or stinging sensation during injection, it is painless.
Forehead wrinkles and glabellar lines as well as crow‘s feet are significantly reduced so that you will have a more awake, a friendlier and more youthful appearance.
At Park-Klink Birkenwerder/Berlin, wrinkle treatment with muscle relaxant medication is performed during our out-patient consultation hours. No anaesthesia is required. The treatment’s full effect will become visible about 2 to 7 days later. The procedure is almost risk-free when performed by an experienced practitioner and, you can quickly achieve excellent results, which last about 4-6 months, depending on the area of use and the individual patient.
Muscle relaxant medication inhibits the transmission of nerve signals to facial muscles. The treated muscle groups are immobilized in whole or in part so that wrinkles or lines, which are caused by the muscles pulling on the skin, disappear completely or are much less pronounced.
The treatment of expression lines with a muscle relaxant is a common procedure in plastic surgery and, based upon the many years of experience in clinical use, it has come to be considered as safe. In rare cases, redness or haematoma can occur. In very rare cases, it may cause allergic reactions. Only in very rare cases, a temporary paralysis of the facial muscles (eyelid, corners of the mouth) that exceeds the desired extent can occur. However, this will vanish after a couple of weeks at the latest.
The costs for wrinkle treatment with muscle relaxant medication depend on the individual scope of services. In a personal consultation, our surgeons will detail the exact costs for you, which vary according to quantity and area of application. For average prices, please refer to our price list.
Filler injections with hyaluronic acid are suited for skin rejuvenation, filling tissue and replacing volume. By injecting into the lines and folds, hyaluronic acid elevates the skin level so that it is adjusted to the surrounding tissue.
A common example for a treatment with hyaluronic acid is nasolabial folds (from the nasal wing to the corner of the mouth). When these lines are deep, the face often looks harder and older. The injection with hyaluronic acid reduces lines and folds, compensates volume loss and increase skin tone.
Wrinkle treatment with hyaluronic acid may be used in various areas:
No anaesthesia is required. Mesotherapy with hyaluronic acid is offered at Park-Klinik Birkenwerder/Berlin during out-patient consultation hours. Results are immediately visible and last about 6-12 months.
Minute cannulas are used to inject the filler into the respective fold. This is done without anaesthesia and various injection techniques are used to this effect. The goal is to use a tailored product for each fold depth and extension.
In the hands of an experienced injector using the appropriate product, wrinkle treatment with hyaluronic acid is almost risk-free.
