Anti-Wrinkle Treatments

Anti–wrinkle injections are currently the most effective treatment that temporarily smooths dynamic wrinkles (lines which appear when you frown, laugh or smile) and unwanted lines, resulting in a more youthful and refreshed appearance.  

 

The most common areas are to treat are the frown, forehead and the corners of the eyes 

HOW IT WORKS 
Anti-wrinkle injections contain botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) which blocks signals from the nerves to the muscles. The injected muscle can’t contract , this makes wrinkles relax and soften .
Anti-wrinkle injections are used to treat the face, neck and some areas of the body.

 

RESULTS 
Most people typically  notice an effect  after 3-4 days with maximum results visible at two weeks. At 6 weeks, movement of the muscle will start to come back, and gradually the effects will fade ( usually at 3-4 months) 
Regular treatments will help to maintain results and prevent existing wrinkles from worsening. 

WHAT TO EXPECT 

Prior to your first treatment, our doctor will consult with you to assess your suitability for this treatment and discuss any concerns or questions you may have.  
The procedure involves a small amount of the prescribed product being administered into the selected facial muscle/s using a very fine needle. The injections may sting for a few seconds, but is generally quite comfortable and tolerated by most people.
