Wrinkle treatment with Botox®
Wrinkles are lines in the skin and can be caused by multiple factors. Age, genetics, and skin damage (e.g., from UV Exgluteal areasure ) play a significant role. Put simply, wrinkles can be divided into gravity wrinkles, sleep lines (also known as wrinkles caused by sleeping habits), and muscle tension wrinkles. Only muscle tension wrinkles are an indication for Botulinum Toxin Type A The treatment is very safe and quickly produces visibly natural-looking results.
Wrinkle treatment: How does Botulinum Toxin Type A work?
Botulinum Toxin Type A (Botox®) exerts its effects on key muscles. These muscles relax, preventing wrinkles from forming or promoting the smoothing of existing wrinkles. Botulinum Toxin Type A is particularly well-suited for treating wrinkles caused by facial expressions. These are commonly referred to as frown lines or laugh lines .
Botox® is injected directly under the skin, where it exerts its focal muscle-weakening effect. This anti-aging treatment is low-risk, and unwanted side effects are virtually nonexistent . The appearance is younger and fresher – for up to three months or longer. Because Botulinum Toxin Type A is naturally broken down by the body, repeat injections are necessary and easily performed.

Botox® application in Braunschweig
The use of Botulinum Toxin Type A is useful, among other things, for the following wrinkle injections:
Eyebrow lift (Chemical Browlift)
As we age, eyebrows typically droop. Targeted injections of botulinum toxin, which paralyze the brow depressors, can lift the eyebrows by up to 3 mm. This can achieve excellent results and, in some cases, avoid the need for a surgical forehead lift. At our specialist practice in Braunschweig, Dr. Brölsch injects Botox®, relaxing the area around the eyes and eyebrows. The lifting effect then takes hold.
Bruxism
Nighttime teeth grinding (bruxism) is widespread. In our specialist practice in Braunschweig, Dr. Brölsch uses the muscle relaxant Botulinum Toxin Type A for this purpose. The active ingredient ensures that the masseter muscle relaxes for a period of time, thus stopping the teeth grinding. Botox® therapy for bruxism only takes about half an hour. The effect is remarkable, as the treatment also prevents side effects of teeth grinding such as headaches and tension.
Bunny Lines ( Nasal Wrinkles )
Bunny lines are fine lines that typically run from the outer bridge of the nose up to the corners of the eyes. They can make someone appear grumpy to others. Bunny lines are common in women and men who tend to have pronounced facial expressions, frequently expose their skin to the sun, or have very dry skin. Advancing age also increases the likelihood of developing bunny lines. The good news is that bunny lines can be treated and removed very effectively with minimal effort and injections of Botulinum Toxin Type A The effect achieved by Dr. Brölsch at our specialist practice in Braunschweig can last up to a year.
Facial Slimming / Masseter
There are many reasons why the masseter muscle (M. masseter) might be overdeveloped in women or men. Female patients, in particular, often perceive their appearance as too masculine and desire a slimmer facial silhouette. An injection with Botox® softens angular contours by relaxing the muscles in the relevant areas after the injection. This facial slimming effect creates a more even and softer appearance.
Chin (strawberry chin)
Uneven areas on the chin don't only appear when you frown or cry, for example. They can also be permanently present. In such cases, we refer to it as a "strawberry chin" or "cobblestone chin." This is also because the chin is often accompanied by noticeable redness. A strawberry chin is usually caused by habitual activation of the mentalis muscle. Additionally, the natural aging process leads to atrophy of the subcutaneous fat tissue, which can further increase the muscle pull on the skin. Fortunately, Dr. Brölsch achieves excellent results in our specialist practice in Braunschweig with injections of Botulinum Toxin Type A to treat strawberry chins. The chin wrinkles are smoothed, and redness disappears.
Gummy Smile ( Excessive Gingival Display )
A gummy smile is characterized by the gums being very visible when smiling. Many people find this bothersome. The cause of a gummy smile is often an overdeveloped levator labii superioris muscle (M. levator labii superioris alaeque nasi), which makes the gums visible. To prevent this effect, Dr. Brölsch injects Botulinum Toxin Type A into the upper lip muscle at his specialist practice in Braunschweig. The relaxing effect is immediate and lasts for approximately six months.
Crow's feet (laugh lines)
Crow's feet, also known as laugh lines, can appear friendly to others. However, if they become too prominent, the face quickly looks slack and tired. Crow's feet are often caused by strong facial expressions. The skin around the eyes is very sensitive. The aging process also contributes to their development. Fortunately, they can be effectively corrected with a wrinkle treatment using Botulinum Toxin Type A Dr. Brölsch is very experienced and provides a consultation before the treatment, including a medical assistant , to ensure you achieve the desired aesthetic result.
Upper and lower lip wrinkles
Women, in particular, are bothered by their upper lip wrinkles (smoker's lines and marionette lines). These are the vertical wrinkles that appear above the lip between the nose and mouth. Since high doses of botulinum toxin cannot be used in this area, as this would impair the function of the lip muscles, significant effects should not be expected. Botulinum toxin injections are more suitable in combination with hyaluronic acid treatments or skin resurfacing.
Many patients are bothered by a habitual downward pull of the corners of their mouth in the area of the lower lip, which can lead to a sad or sullen appearance. Targeted weakening of the depressor anguli oris muscle ("sadness muscle") results in a reduction of this muscle tension.
Forehead wrinkles
A wrinkle treatment with Botox® is an excellent way to treat Glabellar Frown Line – also known as forehead wrinkles. It is essential that the treatment is performed by an experienced specialist. Dr. Brölsch is not only a plastic and aesthetic surgeon but also a certified practitioner of botulinum toxin therapy. When treating forehead wrinkles, it is particularly important to choose the correct dose of muscle relaxant. If this is not done carefully, a rigid appearance can result. The face will look unnatural. Therefore, consult with the specialist before your treatment.
frown lines (glabella)
Vertical or horizontal lines in the glabella area signal anger and worry, i.e., negative emotions. The wrinkling is caused by the constant tension of the facial muscles. Patients typically complain that colleagues and friends tell them to "stop looking so angry." This negative effect can be corrected with targeted treatment using Botulinum Toxin Type A The procedure is safe and can be performed on an outpatient basis at our specialist practice in Braunschweig.
