    What baby botox is

    Baby botox (or micro-tox) is the use of botulinum toxin at lower doses than the classic treatment. Instead of erasing already-set wrinkles, it softens the first expression lines while keeping full movement. The aim isn't to "redo", but to prevent: the muscle gets used to frowning less, slowing the formation of the crease.

    It's one of the pillars of preventative aesthetic medicine, now in high demand among the under-35s. At micro-doses, recent literature shows the toxin can also improve overall skin quality, beyond movement.

    Why baby botox

    Prevention, naturally

    Movement preserved

    Lower doses: it softens expression lines while keeping a face that still moves. Never a "frozen" look.

    A preventative approach

    Acting before lines set in: the muscle gets used to frowning less, slowing the formation of the crease.

    Biostimulating effect

    At micro-doses, the toxin can also improve overall skin quality, beyond movement alone.

    Zero downtime

    An outpatient treatment of about 15 minutes, mild discomfort, back to your day straight away.

    Baby botox or "classic" botox?

    It's the same medicine (type A botulinum toxin), but the dose and goal change:

    • Baby botox: reduced doses, on still-light lines, for prevention and skin quality. Ideal from 25-30.
    • Botulinum toxin treatment: full dosing, on already-marked expression lines. See the dedicated botox page.

    At the visit the specialist assesses your movement and tells you honestly which of the two approaches truly makes sense for you, or whether nothing is needed yet.

    The Eudermia difference

    Micro-doses, but a medical act

    Performed by a dermatologist

    Not by a beauty operator: dose and injection points decided on your facial movement, with clinical assessment.

    Naturalness as the rule

    Our philosophy: improvement, not transformation. Even more so at micro-doses. People see you glowy, not "done".

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is baby botox?

    Baby botox (or micro-tox) is the use of botulinum toxin at lower doses than the classic treatment. Rather than erasing already-set wrinkles, it softens the first expression lines while keeping full movement: the goal is a natural and, above all, preventative result. Recent literature shows that, used this way, the toxin can also improve overall skin quality.

    At what age does baby botox make sense?

    There is no fixed age: facial movement matters more than your actual age. As skin ageing often starts between 25 and 30, that's when preventative baby botox can be considered, always after a clinical assessment. It is not indicated under 18.

    Will it "freeze" my face?

    No, quite the opposite, and that's the whole point of baby botox. Using micro-doses distributed on each individual's movement, expressions remain: only the crease visible at rest is reduced. The "frozen face" comes from uniform doses and a distribution that ignores the individual muscles, not from well-done baby botox.

    How often is it repeated?

    The effect lasts on average 4-6 months, with individual variability. At Centro Eudermia we don't recommend a fixed schedule: we reassess when the effect fades. Those who do it consistently often find the intervals lengthen, as the muscles get used to frowning less.

    How is it different from classic botox?

    It's the same medicine: the dose and the goal change. Baby botox uses reduced amounts for prevention and skin quality, on still-light lines; the full botulinum toxin treatment acts on already-marked expression lines. For the full treatment, see the dedicated botox page.

    How much does baby botox cost in Cagliari?

    The cost depends on the areas treated and the units of toxin required, which with baby botox are usually fewer. The exact quote is defined at the preliminary visit, after assessing the facial movement.
