Some quick facts on Wrinkle Reduction Treatments

Wrinkle Reduction Treatments aim to relax facial muscles that contribute to wrinkle formation. Common treatment areas include the forehead, around the eyes, and between the eyebrows. Typically, patients may start to notice results within 3-5 days after treatment, and these can last for approximately 3-4 months, but individual experiences can vary. Wrinkle Reduction Treatments have been a part of cosmetic treatments for over two decades. For comprehensive facial rejuvenation, these injections may be used alongside Volume Enhancement Treatments, depending on individual treatment plans and goals.

Why can wrinkles and lines appear?

Frown lines (wrinkles between the eyebrows), crow’s feet (wrinkles around the eyes) and forehead lines (wrinkles in the forehead) appear because of persistent small muscle contractions. Wrinkles that are caused by persistent small muscle contractions can be treated with Injectable Muscle Relaxants.

In addition to treating wrinkles what other areas are Wrinkle Reduction Treatments effective in?

• • • Eyebrow lifts:  creates a more symmetrical appearance to eyebrows and helps to raise heavy brows;
    • Jawline contouring:  used in this area to slim and elongate square jaws;
    • Necklines:  used to remove unsightly neck bands;
    • Calf contouring:  used to slim and contour bulky calf muscles; and
    • Excessive sweating:  reduces sweating in areas such as the underarms, hands and feet.

When can I get back to normal activities?

You can resume normal activities straight away, however, we advise you not to massage your face for 24 hours after having the injections.

Is it safe?

Yes, Wrinkle Reduction Treatments have been used for over 20 years in both cosmetic and therapeutic treatments without any reported long issue. In fact, Wrinkle Reduction Treatments are commonly used in higher dosages to treat children with cerebral palsy to reduce muscle spasms, lazy eye(s) and excessive sweating.
