ANTI WRINKLE INJECTION
Smooth away the years with Botox
- Many facial wrinkles form when we use our muscles to make facial expressions. The wrinkles formed during these expressions are called dynamic wrinkles. For example, when we smile our eye wrinkles become prominent and when we frown the vertical lines between our eyebrows become noticeable.
- When we are young our skin springs back to its natural position after a facial expression, but as we get older dynamic wrinkles remain on the skin to form static wrinkles: they are wrinkles and folds that are present at rest.
- The process occurs because natural substances such as collagen (the major structural protein in skin), elastin (the protein that causes the tissue to stretch) and hyaluronic acid (which gives skin volume) decrease with exposure to sunlight, smoking and stress all contribute to the creation of wrinkles and folds.
- The anti-wrinkle injection is a natural, purified protein that relaxes wrinkle causing muscles, creating a rejuvenated appearance.
- Anti-Wrinkle injection treatment is a non-surgical procedure whereby a small amount of Anti-Wrinkle injection is administered into selected facial muscles by a trained doctor using a very fine needle.
- Generally, an Anti-Wrinkle injection treatment takes around 10 minutes. Discomfort is typically minimal and brief, and an anesthetist is usually not required. The injection may sting for a few seconds. Normal activities can be resumed soon after.
- The result will give you a natural look and make you at least 10 years younger.
- The dose recommended for the treatment will vary depending on your individual situation and the severity of lines.
- The anti-wrinkle injection is a prescription-only medicine and treatment is only available from a qualified medical professional
- Within 3 days you may notice a softening in the appearance of your frown lines between your brows and it takes up to 7 days to see the full results. The area will continue to improve for up to a month.

After getting anti-wrinkle injections, it’s essential to take proper care of your skin to ensure the best results and reduce the risk of complications. Here are some post-care tips to follow:

Keep in mind
- Anti-wrinkle injections, also known as Botox injections, are generally considered safe when administered by a qualified and experienced practitioner. However, as with any medical procedure, there are potential side effects that you should be aware of. Here are some common side effects that may occur after anti-wrinkle injections:
- Bruising or swelling at the injection site
- Headache
- Nausea
- Temporary weakness or drooping of facial muscles
- Flu-like symptoms
- Itching or rash at the injection site
- Eyelid drooping or double vision (rare)
- Most side effects are mild and will resolve on their own within a few days to a few weeks. Serious complications are rare but can occur if the injections are administered incorrectly or in excessive amounts.
- If you experience any persistent or concerning side effects, contact your doctor immediately.
