Who can benefit from Wrinkle Reduction Injections?

Wrinkle Reduction Injections offer subtle results that can help enhance their features for those who choose this treatment.

This option allows individuals to maintain their appearance and gently reduce the visible effects of ageing. Whether interested in softening the look of frown lines, smile lines, or other expression lines, Wrinkle Reduction Injections provide a more discreet and affordable way to support a refreshed appearance.

Who is a good candidate
for wrinkle reduction injections?

Candidates for wrinkle reduction injections may vary depending on various factors. However, there are two types of candidates that may benefit from these treatments:

Reparative Treatment – People who already have noticeable signs of ageing around the face or neck and want to address the appearance of already present and deepening age lines and wrinkles. Wrinkle Reduction Injections may help address these concerns for you.

Preventative Treatment – Those wanting to prevent extensive lines from deepening and becoming engrained, typically used by patients in their 20s to 30s. Preventative care slows down the appearance of natural age lines and wrinkles on the face and neck.

How is the wrinkle reduction injection procedure done?

We know that having any kind of facial treatment that involves injections can sometimes be a little unnerving. That’s why we do everything we can to ensure that you have the best care and support from all of our team. Below is what you can expect when booking a treatment with us.

Consultation

During the initial consultation, we will help you determine which treatment is right for you and whether it will help you achieve the results that you’re looking for. We will discuss the potential risks, side effects and aftercare recommendations to ensure that you have all the information available to you. We will also answer questions that you may have regarding the treatment.

On the day of the treatment

On the day of the treatment, you will be greeted by one of our friendly staff who will run through the procedure with you one final time. The area to be treated will then be mapped out to highlight the injection site. You will be seated in a reclined position on a cosmetic bed to ensure you’re as comfortable as possible. The procedure is very quick and most patients find the injections fairly pain free and only feel a very mild sting. If you do feel any discomfort at all it will subside as soon as the treatment is finished.

What areas can be treated
with Wrinkle Reduction Injections?

There are a number of areas of the face and neck that can be corrected with anti-wrinkle injection treatment:

Frown lines and forehead lines

Forehead and frown lines develop as a person ages and the skin loses collagen. Frown lines tend to appear like 2 vertical lines between the eyebrows and forehead lines are horizontal rows that are caused as a result of you raising your eyebrows. Wrinkle Reduction Injections temporarily relax the underlying facial muscles so that it allows time for your skin to smooth out which gives you a more youthful appearance.

Crows feet

Crow’s feet appear next to your eyes and are caused by smiling and laughter. These expression lines are the result of the muscle movement in this area of your face. Wrinkle Reduction Injections can have a real impact on the appearance of these wrinkles, even helping them disappear completely.

Eyebrow lift

By using cosmetic injections to relax the muscles that usually drag down the eyebrows, it enables the arch to float upwards causing a physical lift of the brows.

Bunny lines

Bunny lines are the fine lines around the nose that appear when you make a particular facial expression. Anti-wrinkle injectables inhibit movement in the area which allows the skin to reset to its natural position. This treatment can also be used to prevent bunny lines from forming in the first place.

Reduce a ‘gummy smile’

Wrinkle Reduction Injections are delivered via 2 to 3 points and relax the upper lip muscles, which reduce the amount of gum that is visible when you smile.

Lift sagging at the side of the mouth

Muscles which run from the corners of the lips down to the chin are responsible for the corners of the mouth turning down when frowning. When overused, the repetitive action of frowning can cause sagging at the side of the mouth. Anti-wrinkle injection treatment is used to relax the muscle and lift the sagging effect.

Improve chin lines and dimpling

Chin lines and dimpling is often the result of an overactive chin muscle. Repeated muscle movement causes dimpling and bumps and the overlying skin becomes wrinkled. When placed in the chin muscle, the anti-wrinkle treatment causes the muscle to relax and as a result, the surface looks smooth, while at the same time maintaining natural movement.

Lift and tighten a sagging neck (Platysma muscle)

For this treatment the anti-wrinkle injectables work as a muscle relaxant, tightening and redefining the neck and jawline, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.

Slim the lower face (Masseter muscles)

Anti-wrinkle injectables can be used to slim and contour the face. This is achieved by targeting the masseter muscles at the back of the jaw. These muscles can give the face a square shape and the use of Wrinkle Reduction Injections helps to reduce the bulk of these muscles.

Excessive sweating

Excessive sweating can be treated using Wrinkle Reduction Injections. The injections block the nerves that are responsible for activating your sweat glands, preventing them from producing sweat.

What can you expect after
getting Wrinkle Reduction Injections?

Right after treatment, you may see a slight redness around the injection sites but this is completely normal and usually settles within half an hour. You will be able to carry on with your everyday activities right after treatment. However, we would advise that for around 6 hours after treatment you should avoid the following:
  • Rub the treated area
  • Apply pressure to the treated area
  • Do any form of strenuous exercise
  • Drink alcohol
  • Apply makeup to the treatment area
  • Lie flat on your back

Frequently Asked Questions

You may have some further questions regarding Wrinkle Reduction Injections. If so please don’t hesitate to contact us for more information.
Below are some of our Most Frequently Asked Questions that may help you:

What are wrinkle reduction injections?

Wrinkle reduction injections are non-surgical treatments used to relax targeted facial muscles to help reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles. This treatment is commonly used to soften frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead lines.

After the consultation process and once your needs and expectations have been determined, an ice pack is applied to the treatment area to help to reduce the risk of bruising, also numbing your skin to some extent. The area to be treated is cleaned with an alcohol wipe and the actual anti-wrinkle injection procedure involves a small amount of the product being administered into the selected facial muscles using a very fine needle.

Normally, the appointment time for Wrinkle Reduction Consultations is 20 minutes. This involves consultation and evaluation of your needs, and the actual procedure only takes 2-5 minutes, depending on the amount of Wrinkle Reduction Consultations required and the areas being treated.

The Wrinkle Reduction Consultations may sting for a few seconds, but no anesthetic is required. You will be given an ice pack before your procedure to reduce the discomfort. There may be some swelling and redness at the site of the injections, which tends to resolve within a few minutes and you can resume normal activities afterwards. It is recommended that you do not rub the injected area harshly, and avoid strenuous exercise for 48 hrs post-procedure.

After your Wrinkle Reduction Consultations have been completed, it takes 2 to 3 days for the treatment to begin taking effect, and about 14 days to see the full results.

Yes. Your needs and expectations will be discussed with Dr Ansari or your nurse injector at your first consultation. If you require both dermal fillers and Wrinkle Reduction Consultations to achieve the most effective result, we will let you know and make arrangements for both of these procedures with your consent.

Generally speaking, wrinkle reduction injections may be given to anyone who is a good candidate for it. However, we recommend avoiding wrinkle reduction injections while breastfeeding, as there is limited research on how it might affect breast milk.

Always consult our healthcare provider first before making a decision on any treatments, especially if you’re breastfeeding.

There is no significant study on how wrinkle reduction injections affect pregnant women yet. However, we advise not to get wrinkle reduction injections during pregnancy, as the effects on the mum and foetus have yet to be assessed in medical studies.

We advise breastfeeding mothers to steer clear from this in the meantime to minimise any potential risks to the developing baby.

You may also discuss cosmetic treatment plans with your healthcare provider or OB GYN to ensure safety.

One’s pain tolerance varies from person to person. Wrinkle reduction injections are typically well tolerated. Some people may feel a slight pinch or discomfort, but it usually subsides right away.

If you’re concerned about this, you can always talk to our providers about using topical numbing cream to minimise any discomfort during the procedure.

The effects of wrinkle reduction injections may vary differently for each patient. But they generally last between 3 to 4 months. There are also different factors that may affect how long the results last, like a patient’s metabolism, bodily response, and even the severity of wrinkles.

For your safety, wrinkle reduction injections should only be administered by qualified healthcare professionals, such as registered medical practitioners or registered nurses. It is also important to choose a reputable clinic with experienced practitioners to ensure your well-being.

At My Cosmetic Clinic, you can expect to be treated well by our trained and qualified cosmetic practitioners.

Yes, wrinkle reduction injections can be used to achieve a “lip flip.” A lip flip is a cosmetic procedure that creates a fuller appearance of the lips. This causes the muscles of the upper lip to relax, which makes a slight upward turn of the upper lip or the “flip.”

However, these results are only temporary. Consult with our qualified practitioners to discuss your goals.

It’s best to avoid applying makeup to the treated areas for at least 4-6 hours after the injections. This allows the medication to settle and reduces the risk of infection. After this time, you can resume your normal skincare routine, including makeup application.

One side effect of wrinkle reduction injections is headaches, especially when it’s used for migraines. These headaches are usually temporary and can be alleviated with over-the-counter pain relievers.

If symptoms persist, consult your healthcare provider about it.

The frequency of wrinkle reduction injections depends on individual needs and desired results. Most people opt for touch-up treatments every 3-4 months to maintain their appearance. However, your healthcare provider can provide personalised recommendations based on your preferences and situation.

To optimise results and minimise potential side effects, it is important to follow these guidelines after your treatment:

  • Avoid touching the treated areas.
  • Refrain from strenuous physical activity for at least 24 hours.
  • Do not lie down for at least 4 hours after the procedure.
  • Avoid excessive heat exposure (e.g., saunas, hot baths) for 24 hours.
  • Do not consume alcohol for 24 hours.
  • Inform your healthcare provider if you experience any unusual side effects.

Remember, it’s best to consult with a qualified healthcare professional first for personalised advice and to address any specific concerns or questions you may have.
