As we naturally age, our skin goes through many changes which can lead to the formation of wrinkles and loss of volume from the skin. There are many non-surgical treatment options to improve the appearance of ageing in the skin.

Anti-wrinkle injections can be used to reduce the appearance of lines on the face without having to resort to surgical methods.

Our practice uses the botulinum toxin type A for this treatment, this is an injectable aesthetic solution.

Botulinum toxin temporarily weakens the muscles responsible for developing facial expression lines caused by muscle activity. Static facial lines e.g. those due to sun damage will not usually respond to treatment with botulinum toxin as they were not caused by muscle activity. Botulinum Toxin is injected into muscles with a very small and thin needle, it is almost painless. You will begin to see results after 3-10 days of having the treatment and the results can last 3-6 months.
