  • Anti-wrinkle injections reduce the signs of ageing by smoothing out the appearance of wrinkles, helping our skin to appear clearer and more rested.

  • Botulinum toxin is a refined neurotoxin which, when injected locally into muscles of facial expression, causes muscular relaxation. When injected in small quantities into the muscles of facial expression, this can help reverse some of the changes in muscle dynamics associated with the development of fine lines and wrinkles, and brow heaviness. Following the injections, there is a lag period before the clinical effects appear - usually about 3-5 days, reaching the full effects by about day 10-14 post-treatment. Anti-wrinkle injections should never be done to completely eliminate facial expression but should be used to gently lift and open the eyes, reduce frown and forehead lines, and give a well-rested appearance. Botulinum toxin can also be used to relieve symptoms of conditions such as Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating), teeth grinding (bruxism) and migraines.

  • Expertly administered anti-wrinkle injections help to reverse the changes in facial muscle dynamics associated with fine lines and wrinkles, whilst still allowing movement and expression and maintaing a natural look. It is particularly effective for lines on the forehead, around the eyes, frown lines, the neck and to lift the brow.

  • Botulinum toxin Injections are used mainly for smoothing the fine lines on the face, particularly the foreheard, between the brows, and around the eyes but can also be used for the neck.

  • Anti-Wrinkle Injections can be safely used alongside all of our other treatments in clinic.

  • There is virtually no downtime, Injection points may be slightly red or raised immediately after the treatment but these usually subside within a few minutes. With any injectables there is a small risk of bruising around the injection sites.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

  • We prefer to perform conservative dosing particularly with new clients to ensure a natural result from our treatments. This sometimes means that an additional dose may be required following the first treatment.

  • We pride ourselves as being clinic for natural-looking results so you should never look 'done' following a treatment at our clinics. Instead, you should look like a more rested, fresher version of yourself. We never try to obliterate facial expressions through use of Botulinum toxin, and our practitioners have been trained in HIGHER POWER’S approach to facial injectables to ensure that our patients look the very best version of themselves.

  • Anti-wrinkle injections are generally not painful. We often will use a topical local anaesthetic treatment prior to injecting to ensure that the injections are as comfortable as possible.

  • Anti-wrinkle injections are a particularly low risk treatment. Indeed, it has been used for over 30 years for cosmetic purposes. Risks of injection include immediate risks of swelling and redness, which usually resolve within a few minutes. Sometimes bruising may occur at the site of injection. If you are someone who bruises generally then please inform your practitioner of this. Occasionally some patients may experience a headache after the treatment, and more rarely flu-like symptoms. For this we would generally advise taking a simple analgesic such as Paracetamol, and symptoms should resolve quickly.

  • The incidence of wrinkle-smoothing toxin resistance is low but it can happen in some cases. In some people, antibodies are generated by your immune system, which destroys the wrinkle-smoothing toxin protein after it is injected, giving no clinical effects. Unfortunately in these cases it is unlikely that any form of wrinkle-smoothing toxins will work so we would recommend alternative treatments.
