Anti Wrinkle

Anti-wrinkle treatments are non-surgical, cosmetic injectables procedures that reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Anti-wrinkle injections work by relaxing the muscles in your face that directly cause facial wrinkles, allowing you to achieve a rejuvenated appearance and a much more refreshed looking you.

Anti-wrinkle injections are one of the most effective and cost effective non-surgical cosmetic injectables treatments for correcting lines and wrinkles, caused by muscle movement. Wrinkles and lines are a natural part of ageing that form over time through repeated muscle movements, which cause deep and irreversible facial folds to form.

Anti-wrinkle injections work by relaxing the muscles in your face that directly cause facial wrinkles, allowing you to achieve a rejuvenated appearance and a much younger-looking you.

Common Questions

The exact required dose required varies between patients and depends on different factors including age, muscle strength and desired look. A consultation is required in order to assess each patients’ individual needs.

Whilst everyone experiences pain on different levels, an anti-wrinkle injection is usually compared to a mosquito bite or a slight pinching feeling lasting for a few seconds. As well as this, when performed by an experienced cosmetic injector, there are techniques used to ensure minimal discomfort.

Anti-wrinkle injections are priced per unit, therefore the cost of treatment depends on how many units are needed to achieve the desired result. Men usually require more unit than women. In addition, different areas require different dosing. Smaller areas and weaker muscles require fewer units, while larger areas and stronger muscles require more.

During your consultation you will be provided with a quote, which will be calculated based on the area being treated and desired outcome.

Once injected, you may begin to notice results within 2-3 days, however it will take up to 2 weeks to observe best results.

You can expect that your anti-wrinkle injection will last anywhere between 3 -4 months. As the muscles slowly regain their function, the lines and wrinkles will reappear, and repeat treatment will be required to maintain your desired results.

Aftercare

It's important to follow all aftercare instructions given to you to maximise the results and minimise the side effects/reactions to your treatment. You will be advised of the aftercare during your consultation and will be given aftercare instructions to take with you as we know sometimes it can be a lot of information to remember.

Following your antiwrinkle treatment, you will feel slight tenderness and swelling at the injection sites. You may also notice some slight bruising to some sites. If you have had treatment to your upper face, you may experience a headache afterwards. This is all normal and should subside over the coming days.

Below is a list of post treatment instructions to promote healing.

  • Do not touch the treatment sites as this can increase the chances of infection and the product spreading to another muscle.
  • No strenuous exercise for the next 24 hours
  • No other facial or aesthetic treatments to the area for a minimum of 2 weeks
  • No face down massages for the next 48 hours.
  • No active skin care (retinoids / vitamin A / AHA’s) products for 24 hours after treatment.
  • The product takes 14 days for full effect and it is recommended to attend a review at this time to assess the treatment outcome.
