Botox, scientifically known as botulinum toxin, is a neuromodulator widely used in aesthetic medicine to soften and smooth facial lines. It works by temporarily weakening or relaxing targeted facial muscles, reducing the repetitive contractions that cause wrinkles to form over time. This makes it especially effective for treating dynamic wrinkles—the lines that appear when you smile, frown, or raise your eyebrows.
When administered by our skilled dermatologists and plastic surgeons, the result is a refreshed, natural look that maintains your unique expressions while softening the signs of aging. Safe, quick, and minimally invasive, Botox has become one of the most trusted treatments worldwide for those seeking a youthful, confident appearance.
We use several types of botulinum toxins not just the Botox brand, our choice of the toxin used depends on the need for longevity, or presence of tolerance to repeated injections with particular type. One of our current favorite toxins is Xeomin which we find very predictable.
A natural looking Botox effect typically last 3 to 4 months, longer lasting results may be associated with a frozen look or drooped brows.
A good Botox result is the culmination of knowledge of anatomy, facial expressions, and a superior sense of natural beauty. ‘Me-too’ injectors and cheap productions of Botulinum toxin abound and have become a health risk due to the large member of complications related to them. Dr. Touma has been expertly using Botox since 1997! Having treated thousands of patients, achieving the most natural results while avoiding side effects and frozen look. In addition, and in order to obtain the most of non-invasive facial rejuvenation, he will advise you on other techniques to optimize your rejuvenation treatment, as well as a home skin care regimen.
At Skin Experts Polyclinic, Botox is more than just a wrinkle treatment—it’s a versatile solution with both cosmetic and medical benefits.
Cosmetically, Botox is highly effective in softening dynamic wrinkles such as forehead lines, frown lines, crow’s feet, bunny lines on the nose, and even correcting a gummy smile. It can also refine the jawline by relaxing the masseter muscles and smoothen neck bands for a tighter, slimmer and more youthful profile.
Beyond aesthetics, Botox plays an important role in medical dermatology. It is a proven treatment for excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) affecting the underarms, palms, or soles, and can also help manage certain facial muscle spasms. In selected cases, it is even used as part of migraine prevention therapy, and to reduce teeth damaging grinding at night.
Patients typically notice results within a few days, with the best outcome visible at around two weeks. Treatments are quick, minimally invasive, and require little to no downtime—making them ideal for busy lifestyles. When performed by our skilled providers, Botox delivers natural-looking, subtle improvements that soften rather than freeze facial expressions. Results generally last several months, after which maintenance sessions can be scheduled to sustain the benefits.
Combining with lasers and energy base devices is possible 15 to 20 minutes after Botox injection which is the time for the toxin to settle in the muscle.
Facial wrinkles develop from a combination of natural aging, sun exposure, and the constant action of underlying facial muscles. While many treatments can renew the skin’s surface, true rejuvenation is incomplete without addressing the overactive muscles beneath.
Botox works by gently relaxing these muscles through a series of precise, virtually painless injections. Commonly treated areas include the forehead, frown lines between the eyebrows, and crow’s feet around the eyes. At Skin Experts Polyclinic, we go beyond the upper face—using Botox to refine the jawline with the Nefertiti lift, restore facial contours, soften vertical neck bands and contribute to delaying/preventing the face lift, and even treat chest lines (V-lines) by addressing the pectoral chest muscle. Botox in the masseter muscle is especially beneficial for patients who grind their teeth, helping to relieve jaw pain and tension headaches. It is also an effective treatment for excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis).
The results are subtle yet transformative: wrinkles soften or disappear, expressions remain natural, and patients enjoy a fresher, more rested appearance. As we aim for our patients to look very natural, the dose is carefully selected not to be excessive and therefore results last a reasonable length of time ranging between 3 to 5 months. Treatments can be combined with skin resurfacing or fillers for enhanced outcomes especially when there is irreversible damage to the skin.
Botox is one of the most popular methods of facial rejuvenation in the world today. It reduces the appearance of worry lines, which are often unconscious, and allow people to have a fresh, positive, rested face, nicely affecting the energy that they exude around them.
People’s expressions are never totally removed, just softened. It is a fundamental part of facial rejuvenation, yet is extremely delicate to use to achieve natural results and avoid side effects.
Our patients never have the extremely arched eyebrows or the fake smile seen with poor botox treatments. It is an art by itself that we have mastered, as we customize our treatments based on patient expectations, concomitant use of fillers or other treatments, and other unique factors such as gender, work, and social life. As experts in the use of Botox, we are proud to offer our experience in Dubai, so that you never look ‘done’!
