Anti-Wrinkle Injections Adelaide

Anti-wrinkle injections, also referred to as wrinkle relaxers, soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and prevent more of these signs of ageing from forming, by relaxing the muscles beneath the skin. Wrinkle relaxers will block the nerve impulses that make muscles contract and cause the skin to crease. The targeted muscles will start to relax within three days following treatment.

Your individual treatment needs, such as the number of units of medication required, as well as your muscle movement and the depth of the wrinkles, will be determined in advance during your initial consultation.

At the beginning of your treatment, your experienced cosmetic injector will disinfect the treatment area. To be as precise as possible, you will be asked to make facial expressions such as frowning or squinting, to reveal the visibility of the unwanted wrinkles and lines. Cold packs and preserved saline will help to manage any discomfort during treatment, allowing for a tolerable procedure. In small amounts at a time, the anti wrinkle injections are injected directly into each muscle in the desired area, usually in five to ten injections but this amount varies from patient to patient.

Satisfactory results can last for three to eight months and can be persistently maintained with frequent treatments, about two to three times per year, depending on how fast results fade per individual.

Common areas that patients choose to treat are:

• Worry lines
• Frown lines
• Forehead or expression lines
• Bunny lines (lines along the side of the nose)
• Crow’s feet or laugh lines
• Eyebrow lifts

The wrinkles or lines that can still be seen when the skin is stretched might benefit from alternative treatments such as dermal fillers or collagen stimulators, in order to achieve optimal results.

Along with anti-ageing properties, anti-wrinkle injections, or wrinkle relaxers, can be used for other common concerns, including:

• Immoderate sweating on the underarms, hands, and feet
• Lines next to the mouth or depressed corners of the mouth
• Loose skin on the neck
• Wrinkles on the chin that can be seen when the lips move
• Square jaw lines
• Large calf muscles
• Headaches or migraines
• Facial muscle spasms
• Back muscle spasms
