Anti-Wrinkle injections

 Anti-wrinkle injections commonly referred to as Botox is a widely used injectable medication that is FDA approved for the treatment of wrinkles and fine lines. It contains a purified form of botulinum toxin type A, which works by temporarily paralysing the muscles responsible for causing wrinkles. Anti- wrinkle injections are commonly used to smooth out frown lines, crow's feet, and forehead lines. 

 Anti-wrinkle injections are generally suitable for adults who are seeking to reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles and fine lines. However, it may not be suitable for individuals with certain neuromuscular disorders or allergies to any ingredients in Botox. A medical practitioner will determine your candidacy for the treatment based on your medical history and individual circumstances. Please see further information on contraindications below. 

 Before the procedure, a thorough consultation will be carried out alongside a facial assessment by a medical practitioner, be prepared to discuss your medical history and aesthetic goals. The treatment area will be cleaned and marked ready for injections. The anti-wrinkle injections are typically administered using a fine needle, and the entire process usually takes only a few minutes. Some patients may opt to have a topical anesthetic applied to minimise discomfort during the procedure 

 Following the treatment, it is normal to experience mild redness or swelling at the injection sites, but these side effects generally subside within a few hours. Some individuals may also experience temporary muscle weakness or drooping of the eyelids, although these effects are rare and typically resolve on their own within a few weeks. Our team at the clinic will provide you with detailed post treatment care instructions to ensure a smooth recovery 

 The results of anti-wrinkle treatment usually become noticeable within a few days, with the full effects appearing after about one to two weeks. The improvements in facial wrinkles can last for approximately three to six months, after which a follow-up treatment may be recommended to maintain the results. Consistent treatments over time may lead to longer-lasting effects. .
