TREATMENT

ANTI-WRINKLE INJECTIONS


Botulinum toxin has been extensively and safely used in clinical practice since the 1970s. It decreases muscle movement and leads to less wrinkling of the overlying skin. Over time, natural skin regeneration smooths out the existing wrinkles. Other common cosmetic uses of botulinum toxin include lifting the brow, smoothing and lifting the neck area, and slimming the face. It is also an effective treatment for areas of the body that suffer with over-sweating, otherwise known as Hyperhidrosis.

Certain facial movements can cause facial wrinkles or folds to form, which may progressively deepen over time. Forehead wrinkles, fine lines, smile lines, crow’s feet and bunny lines can occur as result of facial expressions and other actions that cause the underlying tissues to form grooves in which the overlying skin will eventually settle. Wrinkle relaxing injections will temporarily paralyse the muscles beneath the treated area, to help soften the appearance of wrinkles.


Anti-wrinkle injections at REAL Clinic contain a formulation of botulinum toxin type A; an FDA-approved substance that has been clinically proven to help improve many medical and cosmetic problems. An effective anti-aging solution, this treatment is frequently requested by patients seeking to reverse the signs of ageing and is performed only by professional injectors. Please note that Botulinum Toxin is a prescription only medication and should therefore only ever be obtained by a doctor, dentist or nurse prescriber.


Treatment is by administering the correct amount of toxin through a series of small injections into the muscles of the affected area. This helps block the signals that the nerves send to the muscles to tell them to move. This relaxation results in gentler muscle movements to smooth out wrinkles in that area.


A more youthful appearance can be restored to the face and neck without sacrificing everyday facial expression.


In addition to helping to reverse the signs of ageing, botulinum toxin (also known by many as the popular brand BOTOX) can provide positive results for those affected by conditions such as: profuse sweating, chronic headaches and migraines, jaw. teeth grinding, teeth grinding, and jawline.

QUESTIONS ABOUT ANTI-WRINKLE INJECTIONS


  • Do Botox injections hurt?

    Anti-wrinkle injections are generally very comfortable and well tolerated by patients. The site of injection may be a little tender and some mild bruising may occur which can easily be concealed by make-up. We use a numbing cream that will help minimise any discomfort during treatment.

  • Will my face look frozen?

    No. Your face should not appear ‘frozen’ after treatment. We pride ourselves on natural looking results, and use only the required amount of toxin for each treatment. Although some facial movements may be more subtle following your treatment, we won’t leave you with a totally ‘frozen’ expressionless face!

  • How much do anti-wrinkle injections cost?

    Depending on the area and desired result, anti-wrinkle injections may cost between £260 and £500 per area, per session.
