Anti-Wrinkle Injections help to relax facial muscles and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, reversing the signs of ageing!
Anti-Wrinkle injections with Botulinum Toxin (including brands such as Botox, BoCouture and several others licensed for use in cosmetic medicine) have been used in medicine for several decades. They are proven to be very safe and especially effective if you are over 30 to make your skin smooth again for a fresher appearance.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Botox is a purified protein produced by the Clostridium Botulinum bacterium. It is a non surgical, physician- administered treatment that can temporarily reduce moderate to severe lines and wrinkles.
Small doses of Botox are administered via a few tiny injections directly into the muscles that cause lines. The treatment time is 10-20 minutes depending on how many areas are treated. No recovery time is required.
Botox keeps the muscles that cause frown lines from contracting, this will then cause the skin to become smoother.
Within a few days, you will see an improvement and this can continue for up to one month.
Research shows that 90% of men and women rated the improvement of their appearance as moderate to better one month after the treatment.
The treatment will improve the skin around the treated area making the skin appear smooth and less wrinkled.
The untreated areas of your face will move as normal and you will be able to laugh, smile and frown but with less wrinkles.
The longevity of the treatment will depend on the person but normally you can expect results to last between 3-6 months. You will notice a gradual fading of the effects, at this point you will want to return for your next treatment.
Usually, treatment is required 2-3 times a year.
A tiny needle is used for the treatment therefore the discomfort is very minimal. The area can be numbed with a cold pack or local anaesthetic cream but is rarely required.
The entire treatment normally takes around 10 minutes and once the injection is complete there is often no discomfort.
There is no downtime however you may be asked to avoid exercise for 24 hours.
Sagging, drooping skin cannot be corrected using Botox. Damage caused by the sun, such as leathery, wrinkled skin is also not appropriate for the treatment.
