Botulinum toxin, also known as Botox, is a popular cosmetic treatment in Singapore for reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines around the eyes. It works by temporarily relaxing the muscles responsible for these lines, giving the face a smoother and more youthful appearance. It can be used to reduce eyebags as well.

Common Eye Areas to Treat

What Can It Treat For Eye Area?

1. Wrinkles Around Eyes

Botulinum toxin is commonly used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles around the eyes. It works by blocking the nerve signals that cause the muscles to contract, which in turn relaxes the muscles and smooths out wrinkles.

2. Crow's Feet

Crow’s feet are fine lines that appear at the corners of the eyes and can be effectively treated with botulinum toxin. By targeting the muscles responsible for these lines, botulinum toxin can create a more youthful appearance by smoothing out the skin in this area and make the eyes appear larger.

3. Lower Eye Wrinkles

Botulinum toxin can also be used to treat lower eye wrinkles. By relaxing the muscles under the eyes, botulinum toxin can reduce the appearance of fine lines and give a more rejuvenated & cleaner look.

4. Bunny Lines

Bunny lines are horizontal wrinkles that appear on the bridge of the nose when a person scrunches their nose. These can also be effectively treated with botulinum toxin by relaxing the muscles in this area.

5. Frown Lines

Botulinum toxin can be used to smooth out frown lines, which are vertical wrinkles between the eyebrows. By targeting the muscles responsible for these lines, botulinum toxin can create a more relaxed and youthful appearance.

6. Orbiculares Oculi Hypertrophy

Orbiculares oculi hypertrophy is a condition where the muscles around the eyes become enlarged, causing bulging and puffiness in this area. Botulinum toxin can be used to reduce this hypertrophy and create a smoother appearance by targeting these overactive muscles. This treatment can also help with other concerns such as droopy eyelids and muscular eyebag condition.

Is Botulinum Toxin safe for Eye Treatments?

It is a safe and effective option for reducing the appearance of wrinkles around the eyes and creating a more refreshed and youthful look. Consult with a reputable clinic in Singapore like Cienna Medical Aesthetics to learn more about this popular cosmetic treatment.

What happens during the treatment process?

Before the treatment process, numbing cream can be applied to minimise the discomfort prior to the actual treatment. Alternatively, ice pack can also be used to numb the area.

During the treatment process, a small amount of botulinum toxin is injected into specific muscles around the eyes. The injections are relatively painless and take only a few minutes to complete.

Patients may experience some slight discomfort or bruising at the injection sites, but these side effects typically subside within a few days.

How long do the results last?

The effects of botulinum toxin treatments around the eyes can last anywhere from 3-6 months depending on an individual’s metabolism and lifestyle habits. Regular touch-up treatments are recommended to maintain the desired results.
