The treatment works by stopping the chemical signal between the nerve and the muscle, causing temporary relaxation of the muscle. As a result, the muscle relaxes and lifts, softening the look of lines and giving a tighter, smoother more youthful appearance.

Wrinkle Reducing Treatments can also be used as a preventative measure to help soften the appearance of already present facial lines, and prevent further deepening of current expression lines.

Will I have a review appointment post my Wrinkle Reducing Treatments?

Yes. As a new client, it is imperative that you attend your review appointment booked for you at the 2 week mark. This is to determine whether or not the prescribed doses have had their desired effect, and whether or not a top-up is required. Top-up’s are very normal when being treated for the first time, as the Cosmetic Injector is cautious not to over inject and cause an undesired effect.

No. You will not be considered a candidate for anti-wrinkle treatments if you have any of the following:
• Myasthenia Gravis 
• Allergy to ingredients in injectables
• Neuromuscular disorder 
• Pregnant or breastfeeding 

Is there anything I need to do before my treatment?
