Botulinum toxin can be used effectively to treat wrinkles which are caused by natural facial movement. Once injected into the facial muscles it blocks nerve impulses, temporarily paralysing movement of the muscle. Resulting in a more youthful look with a reduction in dynamic & fine wrinkles whilst softening static wrinkles. As the toxin wears off, impulses to the muscle regenerate and stimulate the muscle to contract again recreating fine lines and wrinkles again over time. Results from anti-wrinkle injections generally last up to 3 to 4 months in initial stages of treatment. Some clients it may last up to 6 months. Regular treatment will be required to maintain the desired anti- wrinkle effect.
The best time to consider having Anti-Wrinkle treatment is when you begin to notice that your dynamic lines appear regardless of expression and form even when static. Anti-wrinkle treatment remains one of the most affordable, fastest working safe and effective non-surgical, anti-ageing treatments available.
