What Causes lines and wrinkles?

Every time we smile or frown, we use underlying muscles in our face. As these muscles expand and contract, and over time they crease the skin and gradually wear away the collagen, leading to lines and wrinkles appearing on our faces. Natural ageing, sun damage, hormonal changes, diet, smoking, and unavoidable environmental factors also add to the breakdown of our collagen leading to lines and wrinkles.

How do Anti-Wrinkle Injections Work?

Anti-Wrinkle injections relax the facial muscles, helping the skin to relax, preventing the formation of new lines & wrinkles and smoothing out existing ones. Line and wrinkle treatments work only on specific muscles injected, leaving surrounding muscles to function as usual, enabling normal facial expressions, just with less wrinkles.

Will my face look frozen?

Anti-Wrinkle Injections only affect the tiny muscles being directly treated and not the surrounding muscles. This way, when you laugh or frown, the untreated muscles work normally so your expressions still look like you. 

What can I expect during the treatment? 

There is no downtime with Anti-Wrinkle Injections and most clients return to work straight away It is important to not touch or massage the treated area for 24-48 hours. Also avoid hot extremes i.e sauna, hot showers, excessive exercise and sun exposure.

How long does it last? 

The effects should last up to 3 months. Gradually over 3 months the effects will fade and the muscle action will return to normal. Repeat treatment is required to achieve the desired results again.

Are there any risks or side effects? 

Side effects include possible headaches, bruising and/or pain at the site of the injection. There is a risk of drooping eyelids and eyebrows but this happens in less than 1% of cases and corrects itself within a few months. 

Starting Anti-Wrinkle Injections early is the best preventative, why is this? 

Designed to relax various muscles that cause wrinkles to appear on the upper face, this simple treatment offers a two-part solution for prevention and treatment at the same time. They will smooth wrinkles by halting the physical movement (like squinting), therefore preventing them from forming in the first place. This is the reason why many women and men are opting to start injectables in their 30s as starting early is the best preventative. 

Can Anti-Wrinkle Injections be used for any other conditions?
