When it comes to softening expression lines and enhancing facial harmony, Botulinum Toxin (commonly known as Botox) is one of the most effective and trusted non-surgical treatments worldwide. At HALOS Dermatology and Aesthetics in Chennai, we offer medically precise Botulinum Toxin injections to help you reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and dynamic facial creases—all while preserving your natural expressions. This treatment isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about restoring confidence, helping you look fresher, more relaxed, and youthful without appearing “done.”
Botulinum Toxin works by temporarily relaxing the overactive muscles that cause visible lines, especially around the forehead, eyes, and brows. But it’s more than just a wrinkle eraser. At HALOS, we use Botulinum Toxin for both cosmetic and therapeutic purposes—including treating excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), TMJ discomfort, and even slimming a bulky jawline. Every treatment is carefully mapped and performed by Dr. Prasanthi G, MD, ensuring it’s tailored to your unique anatomy and beauty goals. The results? Subtle, elegant, and never overdone.

- Maintains natural facial expressions—no frozen look
- Quick, in-clinic procedure with zero downtime

How Botulinum Toxin Works
Botulinum Toxin is a purified protein that temporarily blocks nerve signals to specific facial muscles, reducing their movement and thereby smoothing the overlying skin. Over time, repeated muscle activity leads to wrinkles, especially in high-movement areas like the forehead and eyes. By pausing these movements, the skin is allowed to recover and soften. The effects typically begin within 3–5 days of treatment and reach their peak at around 2 weeks, lasting up to 3–4 months.
At HALOS, the treatment is performed using fine micro-needles with minimal discomfort. What sets our approach apart is how precisely we dose and position each injection—so you get results that are visible, yet never exaggerated. We believe in enhancing your natural beauty, not freezing your features. Our in-depth facial analysis ensures that your facial dynamics are respected, leaving you with a refreshed, more youthful version of yourself—not an altered one. The goal is confidence, not cosmetic change.
- Temporarily blocks signals to overactive facial muscles
- Allows skin to smooth out from within
- Quick procedure—typically under 20 minutes
- No need for anesthesia or recovery time
- Personalized muscle mapping ensures natural results
- Effective for both aesthetic and medical concerns
Who Should Consider Botulinum Toxin at HALOS?
Botulinum Toxin is not just for celebrities or aging skin—it’s for anyone who wants to maintain facial freshness, prevent early signs of aging, or manage specific skin-muscle issues. If you notice deepening frown lines, crow’s feet, or horizontal forehead creases that make you look tired or tense, Botox can help relax those areas subtly. It’s also a proactive choice for younger adults in their late 20s and 30s looking to delay visible aging by limiting wrinkle formation.
At HALOS, we assess your face holistically before recommending treatment. Whether you want a brow lift, a slimmer jawline, reduced facial sweating, or simply a refreshed look for an event, our approach is always tailored. We also offer Baby Botox—microdosing for those seeking ultra-subtle results. You don’t have to wait until lines become deep folds. The earlier you treat, the more gracefully you age. And when done right, no one will know you've had it—just that you look incredibly well-rested and confident.

- Great preventive anti-aging tool for younger skin

What to Expect During and After the Procedure
Botulinum Toxin injections at HALOS are quick, clean, and comfortable. After assessing your facial expressions and symmetry, we cleanse the skin and inject small doses using ultra-fine needles. Most clients describe it as a mild pricking sensation that’s over in minutes. There's no downtime—you can return to work, shopping, or even social events immediately after, though we recommend avoiding exercise, lying down, or massaging the area for a few hours.
Initial results start showing in 3 to 5 days, with full smoothing visible in about two weeks. There may be minor redness or swelling at injection sites, but it usually fades within a few hours. The best part? When done by skilled hands like Dr. Prasanthi’s, you’ll still be able to laugh, raise your eyebrows, and express emotion—just without the exaggerated lines. Follow-up treatments every 4 months help maintain consistency and avoid deeper wrinkle formation. Our team also provides reminders and skincare advice to support your new look.

What Areas Can Be Treated with Botulinum Toxin?
While most people know Botox for wrinkle reduction, it has a broad range of cosmetic and medical uses. At HALOS, we use it to treat forehead lines, crow’s feet, glabellar lines (between eyebrows), bunny lines on the nose, chin dimpling, and sagging jawlines. It’s also used for lifting droopy eyebrows, creating a softer smile by relaxing the muscles above the upper lip, or contouring a square jawline caused by bulky masseter muscles.
Beyond aesthetics, we treat conditions like hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) under the arms, palms, and soles, as well as TMJ pain and facial asymmetry. The versatility of Botulinum Toxin lies in how it can target muscle hyperactivity, allowing the skin and features to settle into a more relaxed state. At HALOS, these injections are done with millimeter precision, ensuring balanced, effective outcomes—so you feel confident from every angle.
- Forehead, frown lines, and crow’s feet
- Eyebrow lift and lip flip for subtle enhancement
- Masseter reduction for jaw slimming
- Bunny lines, chin dimples, and neck bands
- Treats underarm sweating (hyperhidrosis)
- Therapeutic use for TMJ and facial imbalance
