What is Baby Botox ?

Baby Botox is an aesthetic medicine technique that involves injecting smaller doses of botulinum toxin into the muscles responsible for expression lines. Unlike traditional Botox , which aims to smooth out wrinkles in a more pronounced way, Baby Botox is designed to achieve a lighter, more subtle effect by relaxing the muscles without completely freezing their movement.

Key Points

Baby Botox in Geneva

Baby Botox is a lighter and more subtle version of the classic botulinum toxin (or Botox) injections. It aims to soften wrinkles and prevent signs of aging without freezing facial expressions. This aesthetic medicine technique is

gaining increasing popularity, especially among young adults and patients seeking discreet rejuvenation. Baby Botox allows patients to maintain natural expressions while reducing expression lines and preventing their formation.

Why Baby Botox ?

Baby Botox is often chosen by patients who wish to prevent or treat the first signs of aging without losing facial mobility. It is a technique that helps prevent wrinkle formation while preserving natural expressions. It is an excellent choice for patients seeking a discreet result while maintaining mobility in areas like the forehead, crow’s feet, and glabella (between the eyebrows).
Baby Botox is particularly suitable for people who :
• Want to prevent wrinkles but maintain muscle mobility.
• Have fine expression lines to correct.
• Want to keep a natural and expressive face.
• Are looking for a gentler alternative to traditional Botox.

Baby Botox vs Classic Botox : what is the difference ?

Although the basic principle remains the same — using botulinum toxin to relax facial muscles — the major difference lies in the amount of product injected and the desired result.

The main differences are :
• Amount of product : Baby Botox uses smaller doses.
• Result : more subtle and natural with Baby Botox, while classic Botox provides a more pronounced effect.
• Prevention : Baby Botox is often used to prevent the appearance of wrinkles, whereas classic Botox treats existing wrinkles — it is both corrective and preventive (to prevent worsening of wrinkles).
• Duration of effects : Baby Botox effects last slightly less time (3 to 4 months) than classic Botox (5 to 6 months).

Classic Botox
Classic Botox is often used to smooth more pronounced wrinkles and achieve a visible and lasting result. It is injected into the forehead, glabella, and crow’s feet in effective doses to reduce the muscle activity responsible for wrinkles. Traditional Botox may sometimes give a more “frozen” appearance, but the result remains natural if performed by an experienced doctor.

Baby Botox
Baby Botox is based on a more measured use of botulinum toxin. The injected doses are lower, which allows for the softening of wrinkles while maintaining the natural mobility of the muscles. The result is a rejuvenated, fresh face with intact facial expressions. Baby Botox is also a preventive technique, ideal for young adults wishing to delay the appearance of wrinkles while maintaining a natural look.

Areas treated with Baby Botox

Baby Botox can be used to treat several areas of the face where expression lines commonly appear.

The glabella, located between the eyebrows, is the area where vertical wrinkles, also known as frown lines, appear. These wrinkles form when frowning and can give a stern or tired appearance. Baby Botox helps relax this area in a subtle way, softening the expression without completely freezing it.

Crow’s feet are the small wrinkles that appear around the eyes, especially when smiling or laughing. With age, they become more and more pronounced. Baby Botox can reduce these wrinkles while maintaining a natural smile and expressive eyes.

Horizontal forehead lines are often one of the first areas to be treated with Baby Botox. These wrinkles appear when raising the eyebrows or furrowing the forehead. Thanks to small injections of botulinum toxin, it is possible to soften them without fully immobilizing the area, allowing for an expressive forehead but without those unsightly lines.

The Benefits of Baby Botox

Baby Botox offers numerous advantages compared to more invasive aesthetic treatments or traditional Botox, especially for those who want to maintain a natural-looking face while preventing signs of aging.
• Wrinkle prevention : Baby Botox is ideal for patients in their twenties or thirties who wish to prevent wrinkles before they become more pronounced. By targeting the muscles responsible for expression lines, it is possible to slow the appearance of these creases and maintain a youthful appearance for longer.
• Natural and subtle result : one of the main benefits of Baby Botox is its subtle and natural effect. Unlike traditional Botox, which results in a more "frozen" look — though still natural — Baby Botox allows for preserved natural facial expressions while softening lines. The face looks more relaxed and smoother, without obvious changes noticeable by others.
• Fewer side effects : as Baby Botox is injected in smaller quantities, there is a lower risk of side effects or complications. Swelling and discomfort are reduced, and recovery is quick. Results are progressive.
• No social downtime : after a Baby Botox session, normal daily activities can be resumed immediately. Unlike some more invasive aesthetic treatments, Baby Botox requires no social downtime, making it perfectly suited to patients with busy schedules.
• Duration of treatment and effects : Baby Botox is a quick procedure, generally lasting between 10 and 20 minutes. Results begin to appear 2 days after the injection, are optimal after 7 days, and can last between 3 to 4 months, depending on the amount of toxin injected and the patient’s metabolism.

Who can benefit from Baby Botox ?

Baby Botox can be performed on any patient, but it is especially recommended for those wishing to prevent signs of aging or achieve more subtle results.
• Young adults (20–30 years old) : Baby Botox is a perfect option for young adults who want to delay the appearance of expression lines while maintaining smooth, glowing skin. By preventing wrinkle formation, a youthful appearance can be preserved longer.
• Patients seeking subtle results : for those looking for discreet rejuvenation, with a subtle and natural effect, without the treatment being noticeable to those around them.
• Patients who have already had Botox : individuals who have already received traditional Botox injections and want a softer outcome can opt for Baby Botox to maintain greater mobility.
• Patients sensitive to injections : Baby Botox uses smaller amounts of product, making it an ideal treatment for people who are more sensitive to injections.

How does a Baby Botox session take place ?

A Baby Botox session is quick.
Before any injection, a consultation with the doctor is necessary to assess the areas to be treated and to discuss the patient's expectations. It is important to determine the precise dosage to achieve a subtle and natural result.
After disinfecting the skin, small amounts of botulinum toxin are injected at strategic points on the face using a fine needle. The quantity and placement of the injections depend on the individual needs of each patient.
Normal activities can be resumed immediately. Any slight redness or swelling is temporary and fades quickly.

What is the price of a Baby Botox injection in Geneva ?

Baby Botox, or micro-Botox, uses reduced doses of botulinum toxin for a more subtle result, preserving facial mobility while softening expression lines. Although the injected quantities are smaller, this treatment remains a medical procedure, performed according to the same protocols as standard Botox.
In Geneva, Baby Botox prices are aligned with those of standard injections, as the cost does not depend solely on the amount of product used, but also on the expertise required, the preparation, the safety of the procedure, and medical follow-up. The prices are as follows :

  • For women :
    One area : 300 CHF
    Two areas : 450 CHF
    Three areas : 600 CHF
  • For men :
    One area : 350 CHF
    Two areas : 500 CHF
    Three areas : 650 CHF


The dose of toxin is simply adjusted to meet specific expectations : early prevention, natural effect, or treatment of fine lines. The price therefore remains stable per zone, regardless of the desired intensity, as the procedure requires the same precision, expertise, and time.
Baby Botox is particularly suitable for younger patients or for those wishing to avoid any facial stiffness. A consultation allows for determining the optimal injection plan, based on muscle dynamics and aesthetic goals.
