Anti Wrinkle Treatments

Botulinum toxin type A is a neurotoxin that is naturally found in lakes, forests and soil. It can be injected into certain facial muscles to temporarily slow down and relax their movement. This results in softening of any lines & wrinkles that form when we move those muscles, such as when we smile, frown or raise our eyebrows. It works wonders on wrinkles that can only be seen when we are moving those muscles (dynamic wrinkles)! However, if we leave it too long and those lines have really etched into the skin and are present even when we are not smiling or frowning (static wrinkles), then treatment will be a lot less effective.

Anti wrinkles Treatments

Here is how it works:

  1. Once injected into the skin the botulinum toxin relaxes the tiny facial muscles, which cause expression lines, by blocking the nerve impulses in them, leaving the skin looking smoother.
  2. Areas on the face that can be treated include frown lines (vertical lines which form between the eyebrows), eyebrows, crow's feet, forehead lines and lines around the mouth and top lip, known as 'smoker's lines'.
  3. The injection is quick and painless, usually lasting around 5-10 minutes and requiring no anaesthetic. Results will usually be seen in a few days, sometimes taking between 4-7 days for the effects to be seen.

As this is not a permanent treatment, the effects will wear off over time. It is therefore possible for the procedure to be repeated every 3 months for effective results.
