Tips for choosing the plastic surgeon or clinic

Choosing a clinic or plastic surgeon is not at all obvious. Especially if it is your first time to have a Botox/Azzalure treatment, you sometimes can't see the wood for the trees. The tips below can help you make the right choice.

Choose a doctor experienced in botulinum toxin treatments

To be effective, muscle relaxant injections must be performed correctly. The guarantee for reliability and a good result is a doctor with extensive experience with muscle relaxants - in short, a specialist.

Experience contributes to better results

Everyone knows the saying "practice makes perfect. In treatment with muscle relaxants such as botulinum toxin, it is no different. The more experience an esthetician has, the more specialized and thus the better the result of the treatment will look in the end. All plastic and aesthetic doctors at Sarasin Clinic have accumulated years of experience with injectables, and can be counted among true authorities in the field.

Experience important for difficult zones

One of the most difficult areas to treat is the forehead. The skin there is relatively thin, so treatment requires a steady hand with experience. In addition, it is precisely the area where we express the most expression. If the injections are not applied in the right place, for example during treatment with injectables of the forehead, the results will look unnatural. look.

One complication of too much botox in the forehead is that your eyebrows hang down too much. After all, the forehead muscles are the only muscles that lift your eyebrows lifts. So when you weaken these muscles too much, your eyebrows come down too low.

Hence the importance of a good injector with lots of experience for such procedures! 

Experience as a guarantee of safety

Botox or BTX works to some degree muscle paralyzing. Therefore, if the injection is not done correctly and the botulinum toxin is applied in the wrong place, you weaken wrong parts of the face.

Choose an experienced plastic surgeon for aesthetic surgery!

By choosing an experienced physician you eliminate the chance of such "beauty flaws" and other pernicious side effects due to lack of experience to a large extent. An experienced doctor has already performed so many treatments that they know perfectly what to look out for.
