Anti-wrinkle injections are a cosmetic treatment that involves injecting a small amount of botulinum toxin, commonly known as Botox, into the facial muscles to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. This works by blocking the nerve signals that cause facial muscles to contract. When injected into specific muscles in the face, it causes those muscles to relax, which can smooth out wrinkles and fine lines that are caused by repetitive facial movements. It is important that anti-wrinkle injections should only be administered by a qualified and licensed professional to ensure safe and effective result. 

Anti-wrinkle injections are commonly used to treat wrinkles and fine lines around the eyes (crow's feet), forehead, and between the eyebrows (frown lines). Other areas include Bunny lines, Lip flip, Jelly roll, Nasal flaring, Gummy smile, Chin dimples and Down turning mouth.

Do Anti-Wrinkle Injections hurt?

Anti-wrinkle injections may cause some minimal discomfort during the injection process, with the injection itself feeling like a small pinch. Numbing cream is usually not required with these but can be used if desired. If you have concerns about pain or discomfort, be sure to discuss them with us prior to the procedure.

Anti-wrinkle injections typically last between three to six months. However, the duration of the effects can vary depending on several factors, including the individual's metabolism, the amount and concentration of the product used, and the location of the injection site. As the effects of the injection begin to wear off, the muscles gradually regain their ability to contract, and the wrinkles and fine lines will reappear. Some people choose to have repeat injections every three to six months to maintain the effects of the treatment.

It is important to note that the results of anti-wrinkle injections are not permanent, and the treatment does not stop the aging process. However, it can be an effective way to temporarily reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, and to achieve a more youthful and refreshed appearance. As with any cosmetic treatment, it is important to discuss your expectations and goals with a qualified healthcare professional to determine if anti-wrinkle injections are right for you.
