Botox (botulinum toxin) is one of the most widely used aesthetic treatments. When administered carefully by a qualified medical professional, it may help reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles — the lines that form through repeated facial expressions such as frowning, squinting or smiling. Common areas include the forehead, the area between the brows and around the eyes.
At Dr Sue-Liza Eta's practice in Tervuren, Botox is always approached from a medical perspective. The aim is not to freeze expression but to allow the face to move more comfortably, with subtlety. Results, duration and suitability vary from person to person — which is why a personal consultation is always the starting point.
Botox is a prescription medicine in Belgium and can only be administered by a registered medical professional following an in-person assessment.
Aftercare after Botox is usually straightforward. Dr Eta will explain what to avoid in the first hours after treatment, when any effect typically becomes visible and when a review appointment may be useful. Possible side effects, such as temporary redness or bruising at the injection sites, are discussed openly before anything is decided, so that you can make an informed choice at your own pace.
