Microtox, also referred to as "Baby Botox" or "Micro Botox," is a cosmetic procedure that involves the injection of small amounts of diluted botulinum toxin into the upper layers of the skin. Unlike traditional Botox treatments that target the muscles to reduce wrinkles, Microtox focuses on refining the skin's appearance, improving texture, and addressing issues like enlarged pores, fine lines, and skin laxity.
At CLNQ in Cheshire & Manchester Microtox involves using a very fine needle to inject a diluted form of botulinum toxin into the superficial layers of the skin. This differs from traditional Botox injections, which are typically administered deeper to target the muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles. The dilution and the shallow depth of the Microtox injections mean that they do not affect muscle movement as significantly but instead work by tightening the skin and reducing oil and sweat production.
The mechanism of action in Microtox is thought to involve the relaxation of tiny muscles around the hair follicles and pores, leading to a smoother skin surface and refined pores. The procedure also may indirectly improve skin hydration and texture by altering the local microenvironment of the skin.
The cost of Microtox at CLNQ ranges from £175 to £350 per session. Factors such as the extent of the area being treated and the specific goals of the treatment also influence the cost.
