Wrinkle Treatment

Starting in our early thirties, facial lines and wrinkles begin to appear. For some people these lines are not evident when they are relaxed. For others, they are prominent when relaxed and more prominent during certain expressions. These dynamic signs of facial ageing can be reduced or eliminated with wrinkle relaxing injections, while maintaining a natural and more youthful appearance.

Wrinkle relaxing injections dramatically soften facial expression lines and wrinkles, leaving you looking younger and are the leading treatment for frown lines, temple lines, and crow feet/lines around the eyes.

The injections reversibly block the nerve impulses responsible for contraction of the tiny facial muscles that are related to expression lines. The muscles therefore cannot contract and tend to relax.

When relaxed, the overlying skin appears smooth and unwrinkled while the untreated muscles are still able to contract normally, thus allowing normal facial expression to be unaffected.

Treatable Areas.

This excellent and inexpensive treatment achieves superb results and the ideal areas to treat are the deep creases between the eyebrows, frown lines of the forehead, laughter lines and crows feet radiating away from the eyes.

Lines around the mouth and chin can be treated with low strength injections to avoid weakening of the smile. Although the results are dramatic, it will not radically change your facial appearance. The muscles are simply relaxed, so you can still frown, smile, or look surprised without the wrinkles and creases between your brows.

Most people can benefit from this treatment. During your free consultation with the doctor a full medical history will be taken to assess your suitability for treatment.

This treatment is not recommended if you are pregnant, breast-feeding or have a neurological disorder.

The Treatment.

A muscle relaxant is injected using a disposable syringe with a very fine needle. A very small amount of the relaxant is injected very precisely into several locations on the face. The pain associated with the injections is minimal. Many patients describe it as a bug bite sting for only a couple seconds.

No local anaesthetic is needed and you can resume normal activities immediately. Treatment takes around 15 minutes, depending on the number of areas you wish to treat.

Once you have been treated it usually takes two to five days before treatment actually takes effect and sometimes even a little longer to notice the full effect.

You may need to have top-up injections to maintain your desired appearance. Clinical studies indicate that the duration of treatment benefit is increased over time so that you should require injections less frequently in the future.

This will be decided during your free consultation with a treatment doctor.
