Wide range of effects including wrinkle improvement, face slimming, weight loss, and hyperhidrosis prevention
Botox injections are a treatment that can be completed in a relatively short time and makes it easy to see the changes. During the treatment, a protein called botulinum toxin is injected to inhibit transmission from nerves to muscles, achieving a wide range of effects. The amount of drug used is not harmful to the human body and is administered within a range that takes safety into consideration. Elm Clinic has treated many cases and is working daily to improve its treatment techniques through in-house training and technical study. Even if it is your first time, please feel free to consult us.
Painless Botox (for those who are worried about the pain of the procedure)
At Elm Clinic, we cool the injection site and mix anesthetic into the Botox to minimize the pain of the injection. If you are worried about the pain of the needle, we can also use topical anesthesia, which will allow you to undergo the treatment with almost no pain.
We also use a vibrating pen at some clinics, so please feel free to ask us about it.

“What is Botox?”
Reduces muscle activity,
Approaching a variety of problems
"Botox injections are primarily made from a natural protein (botulinum toxin) produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. By injecting a small amount of this preparation into the muscles, it is expected to have the effect of suppressing excessive muscle movement and sweat secretion.
Botulinum toxin mechanism of action
Botulinum toxin works by blocking the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that stimulates muscles. Utilizing this property, it is used in a wide range of cosmetic medical applications, including improving wrinkles around the eyes and square jaws (resulting in a slimmer face), treating hyperhidrosis (which reduces sweating), and even lifting the entire face.
How the treatment effect appears and how long it lasts
The onset and duration of effects vary from person to person, but typically, you will begin to feel the effects within 1-2 weeks of the injection. The effects will then last for about 3-6 months, gradually disappearing over time. By receiving regular treatments, you can extend the duration of the effects and maintain even greater improvement.
Preparations handled by our hospital
At our clinic, we prioritize patient safety and effectiveness, and only use high-quality Botox formulations that undergo strict quality control. Our experienced specialists select the optimal formulation to suit the patient's needs and carefully inject it into the appropriate area. In addition, all formulations used at our clinic are reliable and have passed rigorous quality tests. With reliable drugs and the techniques of our specialists, we provide natural finishes and long-lasting effects.
Features of Allergan Japan's Botox Vista®
Allergan is known as the world's first manufacturer to commercialize a botulinum toxin formulation, and has made significant contributions to the spread of botulinum toxin treatment. "Botox" is a registered trademark owned by the company. Botox Vista® is a type A botulinum toxin formulation that was approved by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare in January 2009 and is currently the only botulinum toxin formulation approved in Japan. It is highly regarded as a formulation with high reliability in terms of both safety and effectiveness.
Features of Hugel's Botulax®
Like Botox Vista®, it is a type A botulinum toxin preparation. This is a highly effective and safe formulation that has been approved by the KFDA (Korean Food and Drug Administration).The product has high purity, and its effectiveness and duration are the same as Botox Vista®, but since it is equivalent to a generic drug, the selling price from the manufacturer is lower than Allergan, and the biggest advantage is that the treatment cost can be lower accordingly. is.
Effects of Botox injections
Botox is a treatment that reduces the appearance of wrinkles by suppressing excessive muscle contraction, leading to a more youthful appearance. It is often used on facial wrinkles, such as those on the forehead, at the corners of the eyes, and between the eyebrows. Changes can be seen within a few days of treatment, with the effects lasting for several months. It is also used to refine the facial line by acting on the muscles around the jawline. It can also be used to treat a wide range of areas, such as hyperhidrosis in the armpits, palms, and soles of the feet, and to adjust the volume of calf muscles. With a short treatment time and minimal downtime, it is an easy treatment for busy people to incorporate.

Downtime, side effects, and precautions for Botox injections
Botox injections are a treatment with relatively little downtime, but there are side effects and precautions to take. Immediately after the procedure, swelling and internal bleeding may occur at the injection site. These symptoms usually subside naturally within 1-2 weeks, but if they persist or you experience any discomfort, please consult a medical institution immediately.
Depending on the injection site and individual differences, your facial expression may temporarily appear stiff or unnatural. Furthermore, if the injection location or amount is not appropriate, unintended muscle weakness, such as ptosis (drooping eyelids) or drooping corners of the mouth, may occur. Therefore, it is important to have the procedure performed by a doctor with sufficient knowledge and experience.
Other precautions to take after a Botox injection include not lying down for several hours after the procedure and refraining from touching or massaging the injection site too hard. This is to ensure the medication works properly. It is also recommended to avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol consumption, and high-temperature environments (such as saunas and hot springs) on the day of the procedure, as increased blood circulation may cause the medication to spread more than necessary.
It is important to take these points into consideration when creating an appropriate treatment plan.
