Anti-wrinkle Treatment
-
Overview
Anti-wrinkle injections, often referred to as “Botox®” (one of the most widely known brand names of botulinum toxin), are a safe and effective non-surgical treatment. They work by temporarily relaxing specific facial muscles to reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles — lines formed through repeated expressions such as frowning, smiling, or squinting.
Common treatment areas include:
Forehead lines
Frown lines (between the brows)
Crow’s feet (around the eyes)
This treatment can soften existing wrinkles, help prevent new ones from forming, and restore a refreshed, youthful look while maintaining natural facial expressions — avoiding the “frozen” appearance. Every treatment is tailored to your individual features and goals to ensure results that look subtle and natural.
Please note: All clients receiving anti-wrinkle treatments must first have a consultation with our prescriber. If you’re booking your treatment on short notice (same day or the day before), you’ll need to visit our prescriber before your appointment.

Who Is Suitable for Treatment?
Anti-wrinkle injections are suitable for adults who want to reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles, such as forehead lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet. The treatment is ideal for those seeking a subtle, natural-looking rejuvenation without surgery.
However, treatment may not be recommended for individuals who are:
-Pregnant or breastfeeding
-Under the age of 25 (EXCEPTIONS MAY BE CONSIDERED FOR THOSE SEEKING SERVICES FOR MEDICAL PURPOSES).
-Living with certain medical conditions such as:
Neuromuscular disorders (e.g., myasthenia gravis, Lambert-Eaton syndrome, multiple sclerosis)
Bleeding disorders
Skin infections at or near the injection site

During your consultation, your medical history will be reviewed to ensure the treatment is safe and appropriate for you.

Downtime / Recovery
There is little to no downtime with anti-wrinkle treatments. Most clients return to their normal activities immediately after the procedure. Small injection marks, mild redness, or swelling may appear but usually settle within a few hours. We advise avoiding strenuous exercise, saunas, or alcohol for the first 24 hours.

Side Effects
Anti-wrinkle injections are generally well-tolerated, but like any medical procedure, they carry some risks. Possible side effects may include:
Mild redness or swelling at the injection site
Bruising
Temporary headache
A feeling of heaviness in the treated area
Rare side effects, such as drooping of the eyelid or uneven results, will be discussed during your consultation.
