FAQ

What is the Botox lifting technique?

The Botox lifting technique uses strategic placement of botulinum toxin to relax downward-pulling (depressor) muscles, allowing the opposing upward-pulling (elevator) muscles to create a subtle natural lift. It is different from standard Botox which primarily targets wrinkle-causing muscles.

How is Botox lifting different from regular Botox?

Regular Botox targets muscles that create wrinkles (forehead, frown lines, crow's feet). Lifting Botox targets depressor muscles along the jawline, mouth corners, and neck that pull the face downward. By relaxing these muscles, the face appears subtly lifted without looking "frozen."

How many units are used for Botox lifting?

Botox lifting typically uses 10-40 units depending on which areas are addressed. Brow lift uses 2-4 units per side. Mouth corner lift uses 2-4 units per side. Jawline definition uses 4-8 units per side. Nefertiti neck lift uses 10-20 units total.

Where are the lifting injection points?

Lifting points are placed strategically at: the lateral brow (to lift brows), depressor anguli oris (to lift mouth corners), platysma bands (for jawline definition and Nefertiti lift). The exact placement requires deep anatomical knowledge.

How long does a Botox lift last?

Botox lifting effects last 3-5 months on average, similar to standard Botox. Because lifting relies on muscle balance rather than complete paralysis, the effect can feel more natural and gradual as it wears off.

Who benefits most from Botox lifting?

Patients in their late 30s to 50s who notice early jowling, downturned mouth corners, or brow heaviness benefit most. It is ideal for those who want subtle improvement without thread lifts or surgical intervention.

Can Botox lifting replace a thread lift or facelift?

No, Botox lifting provides subtle improvement suitable for early signs of sagging. For moderate to significant laxity, thread lifts or surgical facelifts are more appropriate. Botox lifting can complement these treatments for enhanced results.

How much does Botox lifting cost?

At VERZO CLINIC, Botox lifting starts from 2,000-6,000 THB depending on the number of areas treated and the brand used. It is often combined with standard Botox for a comprehensive treatment.
