Botox
That varies per treatment but it usually works within a few days and up to two weeks.
Botox, or Botulinum toxin, blocks the signals between nerves and muscles. As a result, the muscles relax and don’t pull as much, for example, on your eyebrows which are then effectively ‘lifted’. Or on the jaw, which can alleviate teeth grinding. The fact that this procedure also blocks the nerves temporarily means it is also suitable for excessive sweating.
You don’t need to choose whether we treat you with Botox or fillers; this will be partly determined by the zone you wish to treat. If both are an option, the cosmetic physician will choose on the basis of your wishes, the condition of your skin and what suits you best. This will always be discussed with you. Are you not sure which treatments are required to achieve the results you wish to achieve? Ask us for advice.

Profilho®
This depends on the skin’s condition before the treatment. Since the ageing process in the skin is ongoing, we advise a ‘touch up’ treatment up to twice a year. This will extend the effect.
The fact that Profilho® stimulates the creation of collagen and elastin means it takes a few weeks before the initial effects are visible. The optimum effect is achieved after six to eight weeks. The best result will be realised if the Profilho® treatment is repeated two to three times.
Profilho® is a filler consisting of hyaluronic acid without any chemical additions. It stimulates the creation of collagen and elastic, resulting in sleeker, glowing skin and a youthful appearance. It does not add volume as other fillers do, but creates a very natural looking result.
Vitamine-infuus
With a vitamin infusion, the vitamin or mix of vitamins is administered via a drip. The effect and duration of the treatment depend on which infusion is chosen. During the treatment, you simply relax and enjoy a book, check your phone or just chill out.
The speed with which a vitamin infusion works depends on your overall condition when the infusion begins. The more deficiencies you have, the longer it may take for the desired level to be realised and for you to see noticeable results.
This varies from person to person. We recommend repeating the treatment a few times for an optimum result. A new treatment will then have to be carried out every couple of months to maintain the effect. The physician will advise you on how often to repeat the treatment.

No, you will not need an anaesthetic and we will not use one.
Most treatments are painless but, naturally, everyone has a different experience. If we know that a procedure might be uncomfortable, we numb the skin in advance, using a cream called Emla.

The cost of injectables depends on the treatment. Fillers are charged per ml, Botox per zone. At Next Cosmetic Clinics, we always aim to achieve a natural result; our physicians will offer you honest advice if they believe the desired result is excessive, and will be conservative with the dose used.
