A tailored treatment using botulinum toxin type A to temporarily relax targeted muscles, softening lines and wrinkles while maintaining natural facial expression.
Botox is a cosmetic treatment that uses a purified protein to relax the muscles that cause wrinkles, resulting in smoother, younger-looking skin. Botox procedure at Body Lab is a safe and effective way to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. These injections also treat medical conditions, including migraines, hyperhidrosis, overactive bladder, and eye problems.
At Body Lab, we have two options for Botox treatment: Allergan and Xeomin.
Botox, developed by Allergan, is a well-known brand that has been used for many years to treat a variety of cosmetic concerns. It temporarily paralyzes the muscles that cause wrinkles, allowing them to relax and smooth out over time.
On the other hand, Xeomin is a newer alternative to Allergan that Merz Aesthetics introduced. It uses the same active ingredient as Botox but is formulated without additives, making it a purer option. Xeomin is an effective treatment for wrinkles and fine lines and can also treat conditions such as blepharospasm and cervical dystonia.
Allergan and Xeomin are safe and effective treatments that can deliver excellent results when administered by a trained and experienced medical professional.
Final treatment details will be recommended during consultation based on your goals, condition, and the most suitable approach for you.

Care guide
Please follow these care instructions before and after your treatment to support a safer and more comfortable experience.
Avoid alcohol for 1–3 days before your treatment to minimize the risk of bruising. Limit or avoid smoking in the days leading up to treatment, as it can impair healing and affect skin quality. Reduce caffeine intake 24 hours before treatment if you are prone to bruising.
Discontinue blood-thinning medications, such as aspirin or ibuprofen, for 7 days before treatment to minimize bruising. Always consult your doctor before stopping any prescribed medication.
Drink plenty of water in the days leading up to treatment to optimize skin hydration and treatment response.
Stop using retinoids, exfoliants, such as AHAs or BHAs, or other irritating skincare products 3–5 days before treatment to reduce skin sensitivity.
Arrive with a clean, makeup-free face.
If you are prone to cold sores and treating areas near the lips, please notify us.
Schedule wisely: book your appointment at least 2 weeks before major events to allow time for any bruising or swelling to subside.
Remain upright and avoid lying down for 3 hours post-treatment to prevent Botox migration to unintended areas.
Refrain from touching, rubbing, or massaging the treated area for 24 hours to avoid spreading the toxin, which could lead to unintended muscle relaxation.
Avoid makeup for 24 hours post-treatment to reduce infection risk. Use clean brushes and non-comedogenic products thereafter.
Avoid alcohol and smoking for 24–48 hours post-treatment to minimize bruising and support healing, aligning with pre-care.
Avoid strenuous exercise, heavy lifting, saunas, and steam rooms for 7 days to minimize increased blood flow that could disperse Botox.
Delay facials, face and body massage, chemical peels, laser treatments, microdermabrasion, or other cosmetic procedures in the treated area for 2 weeks to ensure proper Botox settling and avoid complications.
Limit direct sun exposure for 3–7 days post-treatment. Use broad-spectrum sunscreen SPF 30+ daily to protect treated areas and prevent worsening of swelling or bruising.
Contact us immediately if you experience severe headaches, drooping eyelids, difficulty swallowing, breathing issues, vision changes, or other unusual symptoms. Mild bruising, swelling, or redness at injection sites is common and typically resolves within 3–7 days.
Questions
The magic behind Botox injections lies in its ability to block nerve signals that control muscle contractions. When these nerve signals are blocked, the muscles relax and cannot contract. As a result, the overlying skin appears smoother and less wrinkled. One of the critical aspects that make Botox so popular is its versatility.
