Anti Wrinkle Treatment
A convenient alternative to surgery, Botox® is used to reduce and relax frown lines, forehead lines and laughter lines around the eyes. The benefits of Botox injections typically last for three to four months and are visible within 7 to 10 days of treatment. Botox will give the face a smoother, more rested appearance. Some evidence suggests that with regular treatments, the effects may last longer and over time will mean you’ll need fewer visits.
The process
Wrinkle relaxing treatments involve injection of botulinum toxin into target muscles of the face to temporarily help them to relax. The Botox blocks the messages being sent from the nerves to the muscles, preventing the muscles from contracting and therefore softening facial expressions and reversing the signs of ageing by preventing new lines and wrinkles from developing.
Case Study
Anti-wrinkle injections in crows feet area. This lady couldn't believe it. She hated the crows feet for a number of years and noticed it more in photos. Simple injections in the muscle around the eye help to reduce this in 2-4 days.
Dermal Fillers
As we get older our skin loses moisture, enabling lines and wrinkles to inevitably develop. Hyaluronic Acid is naturally present in our cells and is one of substances that keeps our skin smooth and supple. Dermal fillers consist of this acid and are injected to lift and smooth out facial lines. Dermal fillers can be targeted to specific areas of the face and be tailored to the individual. For example, deep lines from the nose to mouth may need a thick particle filler, injected deeper into the layers of the skin, but for fine lines around the mouth or eyes, a very fine particle filler would be best as this is injected more superficially.
The process
Dermal fillers involve an injection of Hyaluronic Acid gel to the cheeks, the temples, around the eyes and in the jawline areas, as well as in the lips. These all-important proteins give skin a more full and youthful appearance, lifting up and smoothing out lines. The gel then naturally and safely breaks down over a period of 5 to 12 months. This procedure is non-invasive, and patients can return to work after treatment without any noticeable side effects.
