Results and how long they last
01.
Muscle volume begins to gradually decrease about 2 weeks after the treatment, and a smoother, slimmer body line can typically be expected within 1–2 months.
02.
Results vary depending on muscle mass and lifestyle, but the muscles gradually return to their original size over 3–6 months. For continued results, we recommend repeat treatments every 3–5 months.

Q&A
Q.
Which areas can be treated?
Beyond the trapezius and calves, where muscle shows most, we can treat other areas with a lot of muscle that concern you, such as the upper arms and thighs.
Q.
What is the usual dosage?
It differs by area, but on average about 200 to 300 units (U) are used. Since the dose required changes with the size of the muscle, we recommend measuring your own muscle volume through a personalized consultation at your visit and then treating with the appropriate dose.
Q.
My muscles seem larger after the procedure.
If you become more active after the procedure and your muscles are used more, compensatory action can develop the nearby muscles and increase muscle volume, or the Botox effect may be reduced, so please avoid overexertion and intense exercise. For the calves, please avoid wearing high heels, hiking, or going up and down stairs for about 2 weeks after the procedure. After trapezius or upper-arm treatment, please be careful not to lift heavy loads or carry a bag on only one side for about 2 weeks.

What should I keep in mind?
Please read the precautions carefully and follow them closely.
-
For 3–7 days after the treatment, please avoid heavy drinking, smoking, saunas and steam rooms, hot baths, and strenuous exercise to prevent inflammation.
-
Avoid rubbing or irritating the treated area (please avoid deep massages or meridian massage for one month).
-
You may experience a pulling sensation, mild pain, or throbbing after the treatment, but these are temporary and typically subside within 2–3 days.
-
As an injectable treatment, mild bruising and swelling may occur depending on your skin condition, but these subside quickly.
