Botox - Dr. Ezgi Eryılmaz Keklik

What is Botox?

Botox is one of the most preferred and reliable applications in modern aesthetic medicine. Botox treatments applied by Dr. Ezgi Eryılmaz aim to reduce the appearance of wrinkles through temporary relaxation of facial expression muscles. The basis of the application relies on the principle that a natural protein called botulinum toxin temporarily stops nerve transmission. Thanks to this effect, muscles relax and the skin gains a smoother and younger appearance.

Initially used in the treatment of neurological diseases, this method has now become one of the most reliable renewal protocols in aesthetic medicine. Dr. Eryılmaz applies botox not only for aesthetic purposes but also for medical indications such as excessive sweating, migraines, or muscle spasms.

History of Botox

The origin of botox dates back to the early 20th century. This toxin obtained from the bacterium called Clostridium botulinum has been used in medicine for many years to control muscle spasms. In the late 1980s, it was discovered that botox was effective in eliminating wrinkles. After receiving FDA approval in 1989, it became one of the turning points in aesthetic medicine worldwide.

Today, Dr. Ezgi Eryılmaz combines this advanced application with modern techniques to achieve the most natural results suitable for each patient’s facial anatomy. In her approach, the goal is not only to eliminate wrinkles but also to preserve the overall expression, naturalness, and youthful balance of the face.

How Does Botox Work?

Botox injection temporarily stops the transmission at nerve endings that send signals to muscles. This way, targeted muscles cannot contract, and wrinkles formed on the skin surface open up. The application requires very sensitive planning because each face has different muscle structure and expression habits.

Dr. Eryılmaz analyzes facial anatomy in each patient and makes a dose plan that will preserve the natural limits of facial movements. Thus, a vibrant and dynamic rejuvenation effect is achieved without creating a frozen expression on the face.

Botox Application Areas

In Dr. Ezgi Eryılmaz’s clinical practice, botox is used for both aesthetic and medical purposes. The most frequently preferred areas in aesthetic applications are:

Forehead area: Elimination of horizontal lines
Between eyebrows (glabella): Reduction of vertical lines that create an angry appearance
Around eyes (crow’s feet): Softening of fine lines formed after laughing or expressions
Around mouth: Reduction of fine lines above the lips
Neck and jawline: Tightening of looseness in the skin

Additionally, Dr. Eryılmaz applies botox with high success rates in the treatment of medical conditions such as migraines, teeth grinding (bruxism), and excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis).

Benefits of Botox

Botox offers many benefits both aesthetically and functionally. It provides a visible effect in a short time and enables the face to look younger without requiring surgical intervention.
According to Dr. Ezgi Eryılmaz, the main advantages of botox are:

Quick results: Effects become evident within 3–7 days after application.
Natural appearance: Rejuvenation is achieved without frozen expression with appropriate dose and correct muscle selection.
Short procedure time: Takes an average of 10–15 minutes, no anesthesia required.
Long effect duration: Permanent effect continues for 4–6 months.
Medical support: Provides effective support for migraines, sweating, and jaw muscle problems.

Botox Application Process

Botox application at Dr. Eryılmaz’s clinic is completed in a few steps. First, a detailed skin and muscle analysis is performed; then the patient’s expectations are evaluated. If necessary, micro doses are planned in different areas of the face.

During the application, the skin is cleaned with antiseptic solutions, and anesthetic cream is used if necessary. Botox is injected into the muscle with fine-tipped needles and the procedure takes only a few minutes. The patient can return to social life the same day; no recovery period is required.

Possible Side Effects and Risks

As with all aesthetic applications, botox may have some side effects that need attention. Slight redness, bruising, or swelling may be seen after the application. These effects usually disappear within a few hours.

Thanks to Dr. Ezgi Eryılmaz’s experience, the risk of serious complications is extremely low. However, rarely seen conditions such as temporary eyelid drooping or asymmetric expression usually resolve spontaneously in a short time.

The application being performed in sterile conditions and by medically trained individuals is the most important factor in preventing complications.

Precautions to Take Before Botox

Proper planning before having botox is very important. Alcohol should not be consumed at least 24 hours before the procedure, and blood thinners should not be used. Also, botox is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Dr. Ezgi Eryılmaz provides detailed information to her patients before the procedure; evaluates their expectations, facial structure, and skin type. Thus, personalized, natural results are targeted.

Post-Botox Care and Precautions

After the application, it is necessary not to rub the face for 24 hours, not to do heavy exercise, and to avoid hot environments such as saunas. The area where botox is applied should not be massaged, and the head should not be kept bent forward for long periods.

Dr. Eryılmaz offers one-on-one follow-up to her patients after the procedure. Touch-up applications are planned when necessary. This careful follow-up helps increase permanence and maintain a more natural appearance.

Alternatives to Botox

Botox may not be the ideal solution for every patient. Therefore, Dr. Ezgi Eryılmaz also recommends alternative methods suitable for different skin types and age groups.
These methods include:

Hyaluronic acid fillers: To eliminate volume loss and shape facial contour
Laser treatments: Effective on skin tone, elasticity, and spots
Mesotherapy and PRP: Renewal applications that increase skin quality

Each method can be combined with botox to create a more holistic rejuvenation effect.

Botox Prices and Application Advantages in Turkey

Botox prices vary depending on the number of areas to be applied, the amount of dose used, and the product brand. Turkey is one of the most advantageous countries in Europe in terms of both quality and cost in aesthetic applications.

All botox products used at Dr. Ezgi Eryılmaz’s clinic are original and approved by the Ministry of Health. Treatments are applied in sterile environments in accordance with international standards. This way, both safe and long-lasting results are achieved.

A Young, Dynamic, and Natural Appearance is Possible

Botox not only reduces wrinkles but also adds positive energy to facial expression. With Dr. Ezgi Eryılmaz’s approach, this procedure redefines youth while preserving naturalness.
Each face has its own unique beauty balance; preserving this balance with the right techniques is the foundation of a successful botox application.
