Treatment
Performed by one of our medically trained aesthetic doctors or nurses, anti-wrinkle injections are one of the safest cosmetic procedures available. The formula is simply injected into a muscle underneath the wrinkle, which then relaxes the muscle and rejuvenates the skin.
Let us know a date and time that works for you and we’ll get started on your anti-wrinkle treatment.
How Long Do Anti-Wrinkle Injections Last?
Results vary from patient to patient, but you can expect your anti-wrinkle injections to last for 3 to 4 months. However, if you take good care of your skin, especially in the sun, the injections could last longer.
How does Botox treatment work?
Botulinum Toxin (Botox ®) when injected into a muscle temporarily relaxes the muscle by blocking nerve impulses. As the nerve impulses are blocked the muscle is temporarily unable to contract, so that dynamic wrinkles are not formed. This gives the overlying facial skin a softer, smoother and more youthful appearance.
Who can have Botox?
Botox Treatment can be used for treating wrinkles in men and women.
Who will carry out my Anti Wrinkle treatment?
Your treatment will be carried out by one of our trained medical professionals, either a Nurse or a Dr.
Does it hurt?
Botox injections are relatively painless as the injections are performed using a very fine needle. Patients therefore and do not require any anaesthesia. The full treatment takes about 15-20 minutes to perform.
How long does the affects last?
It can take about 2-14 days to see the full effects after the initial treatment. The cosmetic effects can last up to six months but typically range from three to four months. Eventually most people require re-treatment as the wrinkles reappear.
However, in some treated areas (such as frown wrinkles), the wrinkles may return less severe after repeated treatments as the unconscious muscle contraction habit is broken.
Is there any side effects?
Most people find that the injections cause only mild local pain and tenderness. Immediately after the injection there may be mild swelling at the injection site which usually subsides within 48 hours. Slight bruising is also possible. More serious complications are very rare.
