What are Anti-Wrinkle Injections?

Anti-Wrinkle injections are given using Botulinum toxin. This is a natural occurring protein that has been safely and successfully used in small doses in non-surgical procedures for years. Anti-Wrinkle treatment causes the muscles of the face to relax, consequently smoothing out lines and wrinkles.  The effects are observed after 2-14 days and last from 3 to 6 months.  The procedure is painless, quick and with no downtime.

Anti Wrinkle Injection Areas

How Do They Work?

Anti-Wrinkle injections works by inhibiting the release of acetylcholine from motor nerve endings and preventing the contraction of muscle fibres. By blocking chemical signals between muscles and nerves, it allows facial muscles to relax and temporarily relieve any pressure on the subcutaneous tissue cells of skinfolds, which helps smooth out lines wrinkles and prevents them from developing in the first place.

The three most common areas tested with Anti-Wrinkle injections are typically the Forehead, Frown Lines and Crow’s Feet.

Forehead
(Frontalis)

One of the most common places where wrinkles form, with creases becoming more pronounced as age sets in. They also form through repeated contraction of the forehead when the eyebrows are raised.
We treat forehead wrinkles by injecting into the skin to relax the muscles to prevent lines developing and deepening as well as softening existing lines. The skin becomes smoother and this helps to create a more youthful appearance.

Frown Lines (Glabella)

Frown lines are the vertical lines often referred to as “11” lines that develop between the eyebrows and nose and appear when the face contracts in a frown. Age and sun damage lead to these lines becoming deeper and more visible.  These lines are caused by contraction of the glabellar muscles namely the procerus, corrugators and depressor supercilli. To treat these; small injections are given to the involved muscles in order to restrict movement causing the lines and wrinkles as well as preventing them from getting deeper.

Crow’s Feet (Orbicularis Ori)

Crow’s feet are the lines that appear at the corners of the eyes and spread out across the face. They develop through the multiple contractions that a person makes with their face over time.  Anti-Wrinkle injections are injected directly into the crow’s feet to relax the muscles and make the skin smoother.

Lip Flip

The Lip Flip is a great alternative to Lip Fillers. We use Anti-Wrinkle treatment in to the upper lip instead to relax the Orbicularis Oris muscle causing the upper lip to roll “flip” slightly upward.  This amplifies your natural shape resulting in a fuller and more defined lip. There is also very little down time.

Bunny Lines

These lines are created by contraction of the ‘upside down horseshoe muscle’ called the nasalis. The lines created can be static (seen at rest) or dynamic (seen on movements such as laughing or talking).
These lines can be relaxed by injecting Anti-Wrinkle product into each side of the nose.

Gummy Smile

This is when some people smile, their upper lip elevates too far above their upper teeth exposing extra gum tissue which is caused by the elevation of the upper lip by muscles called the levator labii superioris alaeque nasi.
Small dosages of Anti-Wrinkle product can simply be injected into the top half of the muscle to relax it allowing it to slightly drop for a more aesthetically pleasing smile.

Dimpled/Pebble Chin

The mentalis muscle can be hyperactive or too large resulting in short lines that mar the skin of the chin, creating a ‘dimpled/pebblestone’ appearance. Anti-Wrinkle product can be used on the chin muscle to correct this to give a less bulky and dimpled appearance.

Hyperhidrosis
(Excessive Sweating)

This is a common problem affecting the armpits, hands and feet and can cause distress and anxiety. It is normal to sweat if you get hot or do exercise, but you may be sweating excessively if you are sweating when your body doesn’t need to cool down. Excessive sweating can happen for no obvious reason, because of another condition you may have or as a side effect of medication you are taking. Anti-Wrinkle injections can help relieve sweating in all these areas through blocking nerve control of sweating. This can last between 6-8 months.

Jaw Slimming
& Teeth Grinding

Large cheek muscles can give rise to a square or bulky looking jaw. In some people, treating the masseter muscle with Anti-Wrinkle Treatment selectively weakens this muscle over time leading to an overall reduction in the size of this muscle. It can also be helpful for people who grind their teeth.
Unlike other Anti-Wrinkle treatments, results take longer to appear with the jawline. Maximum results are usually seen between 4-6 weeks and will typically last 4-6 months.
