ASK THE EXPERT

Dr. Ahmed Salman

Dublin-based Dr. Salman is one Ireland’s top cosmetic plastic surgeons. We asked him the hard questions, like how often is too often, and how much is too much?

WRINKLES

Unlike filler, which literally ‘fills’ the grooves caused by wrinkles, botulinum toxin paralyses tiny muscles under the skin. When they don’t move, your skin doesn’t wrinkle. Too much though, and you’ll look frozen!

SWEATING

Did you know that botulinum toxin has another side effect? It prevents sweating from the area where it is injected. People who suffer from excessive sweating can often be referred for botox injections. It can be used almost everywhere, including hands and feet.

KEY MEDICAL USES

Botox has also been used (by qualified professionals) to a wide range of things since it was first approved for use around 30 years ago. It has been used to treat migraine, tics like rapid blinking, back ache, depression and lots more. Here’s an article from Time with 11 different uses for Botox.

HOW MUCH IS BOTOX IN DUBLIN?

PRICE

Botox prices have become very competitive since it first became popular. The price you pay can often depend more on the location of the clinic than the true cost of treatment.

LOOK FOR VALUE

When it comes to medical aesthetic treatment, value is more important than ‘cheap’. Would you rather have a fully qualified plastic surgeon, a medically qualified doctor or dentist, or a supervised beautician treating you?

COMPARING PRICES

According to clinic comparison site WhatClinic.com, there are almost 200 clinics in Ireland offering botox, with more opening every month!

How many clinics?

According to WhatClinic.com there are at least 69 clinics in County Dublin, that offer treatment for wrinkles, which means it’s very easy to shop around. You should always factor experience and safety into your search though, and chose a practitioner you trust, while getting the best price!

PRICE PER UNIT

The price you pay will not only depend on the clinic, it will also fluctuate depending on how much of the actual product is used. Some patients may only have one area treated, while others may have more (for example, forehead and eye areas)

CHEAPER ALTERNATIVES

Bear in mind that if you become a regular patient, and you attend a clinic, 2 – 4 times a year, your spend will not be insignificant. Remember, a really good moisturiser with a daily SPF will probably do more long term to keep sun damage and wrinkles at bay, and costs a LOT less 🙂
