ANTIWRINKLE
INJECTION
Botulinum toxin type A is an injectable neurotoxin, better known under different brand names such as Dysport®, Xeomin® and Azzalure®. Neurotoxin treatments are the most popular single cosmetic procedure in the UK and are mainly used to smooth dynamic wrinkles, or those wrinkles that form as a result of facial movements like frowning, squinting, smiling, and other expressions we tend to make day after day. Treatment works by blocking nerve impulses to the muscles, causing them to relax. As a result, your expressions soften and the dynamic wrinkles are greatly reduced.
Anti Wrinkle injectables can help an adult patient of any age improve his or her appearance, not only imparting a more youthful look, but also alleviating an overly concerned look, helping you look better refreshed or even more pleasant.
The most commonly treated areas are those where muscle activity influences facial features, such as the following:
Glabellar lines (a.k.a. “elevens” or frown lines)
Wrinkles around the eyes, such as crow’s feet
Forehead creases
Corners of the mouth
A “cobblestoned” appearance to the chin
During your consultation, your cosmetic practitioner will evaluate your area of concern and go over your medical history.
Even though there is little risk of major complications for most patients, it is still imperative that you share your medical history fully and openly with us before treatment, as certain allergies, skin and neurological conditions, or medications can make treatment unsuitable for a patient.
Following treatment, you will not see results immediately. This is expected, so do not worry that treatment hasn’t worked.
Depending on the patient, product used, and area treated, results started to be seen between 3 to 7 days. Final results are typically reached 10 to 14 days after initial treatments.
If this is your first botulinum toxin treatment, we may initially inject a more conservative amount and touch up the results during a follow up treatment. This helps to ensure natural, optimal results without the risk of over-treating an area.
The wrinkle-reducing effects from botulinum treatments will vary depending on the patient, lifestyle, concurrent medications taken and the area treated. Results should typically last anywhere from 3 to 6 months. Botulinum toxin A is a neurotoxic protein produced by the bacterium clostridium botulinum and others, having a potent and specific effect on the transmission of nerve signals to muscles and glands. This macromolecular protein is similar to the tetanus toxin.
