Injectables, much like skincare, can be daunting. Let's take it back to basics. We will tick off the main boxes: where, how, and why here in this blog, and you can discuss the nitty gritty with one of our Registered Nurses at your next consultation.
Over time the repeated movement of certain muscle's can create creases in the skin. Wrinkle-reducing treatments are used to reduce muscle movement, which in turn softens and smooths fine lines and wrinkles caused by movement. This is done by placing wrinkle-reducing medication into the muscle using a series of small injection points. The whole process, after a thorough consultation, can be done in a matter of minutes.

Downtime is minimal with the occasional pesky bruise or some tenderness at the injection site.

The most common areas of treatment for wrinkle-reduction would have to be frown, forehead and crows feet, however the possibilities are somewhat endless with bunny lines, gummy smiles, neckbands and jaw clenching also making the list of treatment areas. 

The results of wrinkle-reducing treatments take a full 2 weeks to take effect with a longevity of 3-4 months. This time frame will vary slightly from person to person.
