Anti-Wrinkle Injections

Overview

Anti-wrinkle injections (botulinum toxin) are the gold standard for treating dynamic wrinkles caused by repeated muscle movements. Our practitioners use precise micro-doses to relax specific facial muscles, smoothing existing lines while preserving natural expression.

Common treatment areas include forehead lines, frown lines (glabella), and crow’s feet. We also offer advanced applications including brow lift, gummy smile correction, and jawline slimming (masseter reduction).

How It Works

1

Assessment

Your practitioner analyses your facial movements and identifies the optimal injection points for a natural result.

2

Treatment

Using ultra-fine needles, precise doses are administered to targeted muscles. The procedure takes just 15-30 minutes.

Results

Effects begin to appear within 3-5 days and reach full effect at 2 weeks. Results typically last 3-6 months.

A complimentary 2-week review is included to assess results and make any necessary adjustments.
