Doctor-Led Aesthetics: Anti Wrinkle Treatment to Reduce And Prevent Fine Lines
Anti-wrinkle injections are a popular choice for those looking to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. These treatments work by relaxing the muscles that cause wrinkles, resulting in smoother, more youthful-looking skin. They are quick, minimally invasive, and require little to no downtime, making them a convenient option for those with busy lifestyles.
Botulinum toxin (Botox) treatments are perfect for softening fine lines and wrinkles, particularly around the forehead, eyes, and mouth. We can also use anti-wrinkle injections to slim the jawline, soften necklines and reduce excessive sweating.
I aim to enhance your natural beauty while preserving your unique facial expressions, offering a refreshed appearance, not ‘frozen’. Best results are usually seen after two weeks and last up to 3 months, after which you can book further treatments.

Anti Wrinkle Treatment FAQs
How do botulinum toxin treatments work?
Botox treatments are a popular way to reduce the appearance of certain types of lines and wrinkles. They use a natural protein, botulinum toxin, carefully injected into specific facial muscles. This protein helps to relax the muscles, smoothing out the wrinkles.
Imagine your muscles constantly receiving messages from your nerves to contract or tighten. Botox blocks these messages, so the muscle relaxes and the wrinkles soften
How long do the results of the botulinum toxin treatments last?
The results of botulinum toxin treatments typically last between three to six months. However, this can vary depending on several factors, including your skin type, treated area, and the specific product used. We will discuss this with you at the initial consultation.
The effects of this treatment are not permanent. As the botulinum toxin wears off, the muscles will gradually return to their normal function, and wrinkles may begin to reappear. Regular follow-up treatments help maintain the desired results.
Am I a suitable patient for botulinum anti wrinkle injections?
Suitability for Botox injections can vary depending on individual circumstances. However, individuals in their 30s to 50s are typically good candidates, as they may have moderate facial wrinkles that Botox can effectively treat.
Patients should not have any neuromuscular disorders, be pregnant or breastfeeding, or have a known allergy to any Botulinum toxin ingredients. Please let me know if you have any specific concerns or conditions, and I can provide more tailored information.
Will there be any downtime?
Typically, there is minimal to no downtime after Botox injections, allowing most patients to return to their normal activities immediately. Some common side effects include slight bruising or redness at the injection site, which are generally mild and temporary. It’s advisable to avoid strenuous activities for a short period after the treatment to allow the Botox to settle and minimise the risk of spreading to other areas.
Results from Botox injections typically become noticeable within a few days after the treatment. The full effect of Botox is usually seen within 1 to 2 weeks. Results can vary from person to person based on factors such as the area treated and the individual’s muscle strength.
