About botulinum toxin injection
Botulinum toxin injection has almost no side effects such as allergies, and treatment can be done only by injection, so it is in cosmetic surgery that does not require a scalpel.
It has become one of the most popular treatments. Typical treatment areas are wrinkles on the forehead, wrinkles between the eyebrows, and wrinkles on the outer corners of the eyes, which are called “facial expression wrinkles”. Even when you apply force, deep wrinkles do not occur and you can maintain a pinned state.
It is also used to thin thick and developed muscles such as gill muscles and calf muscles.
Botulinum toxin also has the function of blocking the transmission of sweat-producing commands from nerves, and is also used as a treatment for hyperhidrosis. If you inject it into a place where you have a lot of sweat, such as your armpits or limbs, you can suppress the secretion of sweat and keep it dry.

よくある質問
- One of the most common procedures to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, botulinum toxin injections act on facial muscles to temporarily paralyze them, making them less likely to wrinkle. Botulinum toxin injections strongly suppress the acetylcholine transmitter from nerve terminals, thereby reducing the stimulation from the nerves to the muscles and muscle weakness. In addition to wrinkles, botulinum toxin injections are also effective for hyperhidrosis.
- Not all wrinkles are effective.
Botulinum toxin injections are effective for wrinkles that are caused by muscle contraction, so they are effective for the plumose wrinkles between the eyebrows, on the forehead, at the corners of the eyes, and on the chin. Injections into the gills also have a small face effect. - Botulinum toxin injections in the shallow subcutaneous area of the armpit strongly block acetylcholine, a transmitter from the autonomic nervous system to the sweat glands, thereby blocking the apocrine sweat glands and reducing sweating.
- Botulinum toxin injections usually appear after 36 to 48 hours, depending on the treatment site, and the effects last for 3 to 6 months. In general, the effects of the second and subsequent injections last longer than the first. Repeated botulinum toxin injections also have the effect of preventing wrinkles from deepening.
- Botulinum toxin is known to cause food poisoning, which may sound a little scary, but botulinum toxin injections do not inject botulinum itself, but only a very small amount of botulinum toxin, which is the toxin of botulinum, so there is no risk of poisoning.
- Please consider that botulinum toxin injections take about 10 minutes.
- There is almost no pain or swelling. There is no downtime, so you can go about your daily life as usual after the injection.
- Since there are no clear reports of a cause-and-effect relationship with pregnancy, we request that our clinics avoid treatment during pregnancy and lactation.
- We also offer botulinum toxin injections for hyperhidrosis.
This treatment is very pleasing to those who suffer from this condition, as it considerably reduces sweating and makes it more comfortable. Since the pain associated with the injection is much worse than that of the armpits due to the acute sensation in the hands and feet, we provide a set of surface anesthesia.
First, a strong surface anesthesia is applied to the area to be treated.
In addition, just before the injection, we cool the area with a cooling agent to make it even more numb, and then perform the treatment quickly.
The treatment time for the injection alone is 20-30 minutes, and including counseling and preparation before and after the treatment, about 1 hour is sufficient. If anesthesia is required, we will take an additional 30 minutes.
