Wrinkle Smoothing Injections

Botox is injected into a muscle that is causing wrinkling of the skin, the overlying skin will temporarily become quite smooth resulting in a more youthful appearance.

BOTOX - wrinkle smoothing injections

• Trained in the use of vistabel and dysport. Softens and smoothes lines - younger and refreshed appearance of the skin. Treatment to the upper face includes, crows feet, frown (between the eyebrows) and forehead

How it works

• Botox relaxes the tiny facial muscles which create active (expression) lines.
• Leaves the skin looking and feeling smoother. Full benefit of treatment can be seen within 5-7 days. lasts 3 - 6 months before repeat treatments are required.

Crows feet

• Botox relaxes the smiling/squinting muscles around the outer corners of the eyes. It helps to prevent new lines and smoothes existing lines. It stops them being reinforced - so they gradually fade away.

Eyebrows

• Botox between and above the eyebrows helps to lift the eyebrows by relaxing the muscles that pull the brow down, therefore the "pulling up" muscles work only and you get the desired brow lift.

Frown Lines

• The vertical lines between the eyes, they can often make you appear angry or stern looking. Botox makes it harder to raise the eyebrows high enough to push the skin of the forehead into pleats.
• Deep furrows will be softened and smoothed out.
• Some deeper furrows may also need a little dermal filler to lift out the established crease

Forehead cannot be treated without treating the frown as it works as a support, as you would not wish in a result of drooping of the eyelids

Will I be left expressionless!

• No as Botox works on the muscles where it is injected, it cannot float around freezing other muscles in your face.

It is important if you are investing in a treatment such as botox or dermal fillers not to let the skin dry out. A good skin care regime is essential- Julieann can advise and also to drink plenty water to keep the skin hydrated.
