Treatment with Botox® is still one of the most frequently performed aesthetic procedures in Austria. It is striking that more and more men are going to aesthetic medicine practices. Here we list the ten most important things to know about Botox®.
Botox® only for wrinkles?
Treatment with Botox® leads to muscle relaxation. And this not only smoothes frown lines or the eye area. The protein complex from bacterial cultures can relieve pain. Today, the active ingredient is therefore also used successfully to treat migraines. Botox® therapy can also help against bruxism (teeth grinding, jaw clenching). It can also be used to eliminate excessive sweat production. The only downside: unfortunately, the results are not permanent. The effect gradually wears off again.
Treatments for migraines, bruxism and excessive sweating are carried out at JUVENIS in Vienna. Find out more about Botox® for therapeutic purposes here.
What is the exact treatment procedure?
With JUVENIS, the active ingredient is injected precisely into the affected areas using a fine injection needle. Depending on the area to be treated and its extent, several injections are required to achieve a good result. The pain is kept to a minimum, which is why no local anesthetic is used.
What risk am I taking?
The most common adverse side effect is bruising around the injection site. Allergic reactions, bleeding, infections and dry eyes are rare.
Incidentally, it is not true that a face treated with Botox® always looks like a mask. The lower the dosage, the more natural facial expressions are retained. In addition, there is already a special procedure for preserving facial expressions.
Is there a gentler type of Botox treatment?
There is no need to worry about losing facial expressions. Today, MicroBotox® can be used to treat wrinkles. The active ingredient is injected into the upper layers of the skin using extremely fine needles. The procedure is mainly used on the neck, décolleté, and eye area.
How high are the costs?
The price of Botox treatment at JUVENIS varies depending on the area to be treated and the extent of the treatment. A treatment with Botox® costs between 240 euros (forehead area) and 490 euros (lift).

Wrinkle treatment with Botox® for men?
The number of people opting for Botox treatment has been rising for around 10 years. Although the majority of patients are still female, the male sex is slowly catching up. One of the most popular corrections among men is treatment of the eye area.
How high are the costs for the purpose of therapy?
At JUVENIS in Vienna, the cost of a treatment for therapeutic purposes ranges between 380 and 490 euros. A treatment session for excessive sweating starts at a price of 540 euros, while Botox® can be used for bruxism from 350 euros.
Which doctor is the right one?
When choosing a doctor, pay attention to their specialty and area of expertise. Besides plastic surgeons, dermatologists have the most experience in the aesthetic field. Last but not least, the "personal connection" is also important. Can you trust the doctor? Are there people in your circle of acquaintances who have already placed their trust in this doctor?
At JUVENIS in Vienna, wrinkle treatments with Botox® are carried out by experienced dermatologists.
What result can be expected?
You will usually notice an initial improvement in the appearance of your skin after one to three days. In most cases, the final result is visible after two to three weeks.
How long is the result visible?
The youthful appearance lasts for a few months to a maximum of six months - or even longer after several treatment sessions. After that, another wrinkle treatment can be carried out.
Use the initial consultation for comprehensive advice. Make a note of all the important questions. We at JUVENIS will take as much time as you need to answer them so that you can be sure of your decision and feel that you are in good hands with us.
