Skin Botox (Dermatoxin) for Those Concerned About Fine Facial Lines

As the skin becomes thinner and loses elasticity, fine lines are often the first signs to appear on the face.

There are wrinkles that form when making facial expressions, such as on the forehead or around the eyes. However, in some cases, fine, subtle wrinkles become more noticeable overall as the skin becomes dry and rough.

One of the procedures people often look into in situations like this is Skin Botox, also known as Dermatoxin.

“What's the difference from regular Botox?”

“Can it help with facial wrinkles as well?”

“Will my facial expressions look unnatural?”

Today, we will summarize the principles of Skin Botox (Dermatoxin) and how it can be applied to improve facial wrinkles.

1. Skin Botox and regular Botox have different purposes

Regular Botox primarily reduces facial expression wrinkles by limiting muscle movement.

It is commonly used for wrinkles caused by muscle movement, such as those on the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the eyes.

Skin Botox, on the other hand, involves injecting small amounts of Botox broadly into the shallow layers of the skin.

Rather than strongly stopping muscle movement, it is closer to a procedure intended to improve fine lines on the skin's surface, enlarged pores, uneven skin texture, and reduced elasticity together.

For this reason, Dermatoxin is often considered when the concern is fine lines caused by thinning skin and improving skin texture, rather than expression wrinkles.

2. Which wrinkles is Dermatoxin suitable for?

Skin Botox may be considered for fine lines spread across the surface of the skin or subtle wrinkles caused by reduced elasticity.

For example, it may be compared as an option when fine lines around the eyes, enlarged pores and reduced skin texture on the cheeks, or shallow lines around the mouth are a concern.

Many people also consider Dermatoxin when their skin generally looks dry, rough, and less elastic.

Because it does not strongly restrict muscle movement like regular Botox, it tends to attract those who want to maintain relatively natural facial expressions.

However, the approach to using regular Botox or Skin Botox may differ depending on whether the wrinkles are caused by muscle movement or reduced skin elasticity.

3. Injection depth and dosage are important for achieving the desired results

Because Skin Botox is injected in small amounts across the shallow layers of the skin, precise adjustment is important.

If it is injected too shallowly or too deeply, the desired changes may be insufficient. If too much is injected in a way that does not suit the area, facial expressions or the way the skin feels may appear unnatural.

In particular, the skin thickness and muscle movement differ from one area of the face to another.

The injection range and dosage should be considered differently for the areas around the eyes, cheeks, jawline, and mouth.

Therefore, rather than simply injecting a predetermined amount, it is important to plan Skin Botox after assessing both the causes of the facial wrinkles and the condition of the skin.

5. How long Dermatoxin lasts and post-procedure care

The duration of Skin Botox varies from person to person, but it generally lasts about two months.

The effects of pore reduction, fine-line improvement, and sebum control are generally greatest during the second week after the procedure. Perceived results may vary depending on the condition of the skin, lifestyle habits, and the treatment area.

After the procedure, it is best to avoid activities that increase heat, such as strenuous exercise, saunas, and drinking alcohol on the same day.

You should also be careful not to rub your face vigorously or have a strong massage.

When the skin is dry, fine lines may appear more prominent, so it is advisable to pay attention to moisturizing and sun protection as well.

In summary

Skin Botox, or Dermatoxin, is a procedure that may be considered when fine facial lines, skin texture, pores, and reduced elasticity are all concerns.

While regular Botox focuses on expression wrinkles caused by muscle movement, Skin Botox is more focused on fine lines and skin texture on the surface of the skin.

However, not all facial wrinkles have the same cause.

The appropriate procedure may differ depending on whether muscle movement is the cause, whether reduced skin elasticity is the main issue, and whether sagging is also present.

If you are considering Dermatoxin, it is important to assess the skin thickness and direction of the wrinkles in each area of the face and adjust the injection depth and dosage accordingly.
