anti-wrinkle injections
Before & afters
what are anti-wrinkle injections?
Botulinum toxin A, is a safe and effective medicine used in aesthetics to smooth existing facial wrinkles, and prevent the formation of new wrinkles.
Throughout our lives, facial wrinkles develop due to repeated muscle contractions. Starting as early as age 20, natural aging processes and environmental factors cause the skin to lose elasticity,resulting in more pronounced facial wrinkles. By precisely injecting Botulinum toxin into specific facial muscles that trigger the unwanted and prominent expression, wrinkles can be reversibly inhibited and relaxed. Existing wrinkles are smoothed or completely eliminated, and new wrinkles cannot form due to the relaxed muscles. Natural facial expressions are preserved, and the face and treated areas appear visually fresh, natural, and rejuvenated.
Popular brands include BOTOX, Azzalure and BoCouture.
common misconceptions
Patients often worry that treatment with botulinum toxin can make them look ‘frozen’. This is not the case with the right practitioner. The dose can be adjusted depending on the area being treated, the strength of the muscle and type of look that is desired. This leads to natural and undetectable results.
Many people also assume the best time to have treatment done is when the lines are already present at rest. The best time to have treatment is in fact before lines appear in the skin at rest; as a preventative treatment.
