Botox Treatments at SEO JEONG

What Is Botox?

Botox (Botulinum Toxin Type A) is a purified protein that, when injected in small, precise doses, temporarily relaxes specific muscles. This action effectively smooths out dynamic wrinkles (those caused by muscle movement) and can also be used for therapeutic purposes like reducing excessive sweating or teeth grinding. It's one of the most popular and effective non-surgical aesthetic treatments worldwide.

FDA & KFDA-Approved Botox Brands We Use:

At SEO JEONG Dermatology, we prioritize your safety and results by using only government-approved, high-quality Botox brands.

• Globally Recognized Brands:
• Allergan Botox (USA): The original and most well-known brand, highly purified and effective.
• Xeomin (Germany): A "naked" neurotoxin, free from accessory proteins, potentially reducing the risk of antibody formation.
• Premium Korean Brands:
• Neuronox: A popular and effective Korean brand, widely used and trusted in the local market.
• Letybo: Known for its purity and consistent results.
• Coretox: Another highly regarded Korean brand with good efficacy.
• Liztox: A newer, rapidly growing Korean brand appreciated for its competitive pricing and effectiveness.

Treatment Areas & Specializations:

Botox is incredibly versatile, offering both aesthetic and medical benefits across various areas.

Aesthetic Enhancements 💫:

Upper Face Wrinkles:

• Forehead Lines: Smooth horizontal lines across the forehead.
• Glabella (Frown Lines/11s): Erase vertical lines between the eyebrows.
• Crow's Feet: Soften lines radiating from the outer corners of the eyes.
• Brow Lift: Achieve a subtle, non-surgical lift to heavy or drooping eyebrows, opening up the eye area.

Lower Face & Neck Refinement:

• Bunny Lines: Smooth diagonal lines on the sides of the nose.
• Nose Tip Lift: Subtly elevate a drooping nose tip.
• Chin Dimpling (Mental Crease/Cobblestoning): Relax the chin muscle for a smoother texture.
• Marionette Lines (Mouth Corner Lift): Subtly lift downturned mouth corners for a more cheerful expression.
• Smoker's Lines (Vertical Lip Lines): Soften fine lines above the upper lip.
• Neck Bands (Platysmal Bands): Reduce the appearance of prominent vertical cords on the neck for a smoother neckline.
• Jawline Slimming (Masseter Botox): Reduce the size of enlarged jaw muscles for a more V-shaped facial contour.

Therapeutic Benefits 💊:

Bruxism (Teeth Grinding/Clenching):

Reduce the strength of jaw muscles to alleviate grinding, jaw pain, and prevent dental damage.

Hyperhidrosis (Excessive Sweating):

• Underarms: Significantly reduce underarm sweating.
• Palms: Stop excessive hand sweating.
