Botox: Before and After – What Results Can Be Achieved with Botulinum Toxin Treatment?
Botox before and after
On this page, you can see genuine before and after results of Botox treatments.
Botox treatment effectively reduces, among other things
- forehead lines
- Sibelius wrinkle
- as well as other facial expressions
The results are natural and the expressiveness of the face is preserved.
Botox results before and after – what kind of results can be achieved?
Botox treatment relaxes the facial muscles that cause expression lines. As the muscles' contractile force decreases, the lines visible on the skin's surface are smoothed out.
The most common treatment areas are horizontal forehead lines and the frown lines between the eyebrows. The goal of Botox treatment is a natural-looking result that preserves facial expressions while smoothing out lines.
You can find more examples of treatments in the Helsinki Botox Guide.

Botox forehead before and after
Horizontal lines on the forehead are caused by repeated contraction of the forehead muscle. Botox treatment reduces muscle activity, which in turn reduces skin wrinkling and causes the lines to soften or disappear completely.



Sibelius wrinkle Botox before and after
The vertical line between the corners of the eyes, known as the sibelius wrinkle, is mainly caused by the activity of the corrugator supercilii and procerus muscles. When these muscles relax as a result of botulinum treatment, the line between the corners of the eyes can smooth out and the expression appears more relaxed.


Botulinum toxin treatment for the lips, before and after
Lip flip is a botulinum treatment in which a small amount of botulinum toxin is injected into the muscles around the upper lip. When muscle activity is reduced, the edge of the lip can turn slightly outward and the upper lip becomes more visible. The treatment does not increase lip volume, as fillers do, but changes the position of the lip by regulating muscle activity.

Bruxism Botox, before and after
Bruxism refers to teeth grinding or clenching, which puts strain on the jaw joints and masticatory muscles. Botulinum toxin treatment can be used to reduce the activity of the masticatory muscle (m. masseter). As the muscle's contractile force decreases, grinding and clenching may be reduced and the muscle may shrink over time.
Botox for men, before and after
Botox treatment is also becoming increasingly common among men. The aim of the treatment is usually to preserve facial expressiveness while softening strong expression lines.


How quickly does Botox work?
Botox usually starts to take effect within 3–5 days of treatment.
The final result is usually visible after about 10–14 days.
How long does Botox last?
The effects of Botox treatment last for an average of 3–6 months.
Regular treatments can help keep wrinkles away for longer.
