Anti-Wrinkle Injections in Dublin
Anti-wrinkle injections temporarily soften the expression lines that form when you frown, smile or raise your eyebrows. Our approach is conservative: you keep natural movement and expression. Every treatment is carried out by a doctor at our private clinic in Stillorgan.
The most common areas treated are the frown lines, forehead and the corners of the eyes.
HOW TREATMENT WORKS
Anti-wrinkle injections contain a prescription-only medicine that temporarily relaxes the specific muscles that cause expression lines. As the muscle relaxes, the lines above it soften.
WHEN YOU WILL SEE RESULTS AND HOW LONG THEY LAST
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 HAPPENS AT YOUR APPOINTMENT
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.
