ANTI – WRINKLE INJECTIONS with Botulinum Toxin is an amazing product that helps to restore and refresh your natural beauty. It works by targeting your muscles of expression, relaxing them, and diminishing the appearance of unwanted lines and furrows, produced by age, stress, and worry. They quickly fade or disappear resulting in a more rested and refreshed appearance.

Facial expressions are how we communicate with the world, how we reflect our feelings and emotions. As we age, visible lines and wrinkles naturally form. Anti-wrinkle injections temporarily block signals to the facial muscles to correct wrinkles, smooth appearance and even prevent the formation of new wrinkles. Injections are not intended to eliminate facial expression; rather they prevent facial grimaces and frowns that have become unintended habits. The Aesthetic Practitioner understands the dynamics of facial expression can administer injections to create a perfectly natural look.

The Procedure

Prior to treatment you will need to go through a health questionnaire with our medical practitioner, who will check your medical history and inform you of both the benefits and risks of the treatment.

The procedure is quick and causes only minor, temporary discomfort. A small, thin needle is used to inject Botulinum Toxin into the small facial muscles. The most common side effects are swelling and bruising at the injection site, which will usually resolve within 48 hours. You can resume normal activities immediately and will be advised to avoid lying down for four hours after the procedure. And you must not rub the area for 24 hours to avoid unwanted side effects. You will receive instructions for post-injection care. It may take 5-14 days for results to appear and up to two weeks for the full results to be visible. You’ll be strutting with a renewed confidence in no time.

Botulinum Toxin has long-lasting positive effects for 3-4 months and wears off slowly. Keeping up with injections on a regular basis, before lines and wrinkles reappear, trains the treated muscles to contract less often so that lines appear smoother.
