anti wrinkle injections fAQs

Anti-wrinkle injections are made from a natural protein called Botulinum toxin, a trusted treatment in aesthetic medicine for many years. It works by blocking nerve signals to specific facial muscles, preventing them from contracting. This relaxation smooths out the overlying skin, reducing the appearance of unwanted lines and wrinkles.

Results typically become visible within 4–10 days of treatment. On average, they last for 3–4 months, although lifestyle and individual factors can sometimes extend or shorten this timeframe.

The treatment involves using a very fine needle to inject small amounts of product into targeted areas. Most clients experience minimal discomfort, and while a topical anaesthetic can be applied, it’s rarely needed. The procedure itself usually takes around 15 minutes, depending on the area being treated.

Mild redness, swelling, or tenderness at the injection site may occur but typically settles within a few hours and can be easily concealed with makeup. Complications are rare, and muscle-relaxing injections are generally considered safe when administered by qualified practitioners.
