The active ingredients used in wrinkle relaxing injections is the prescription medicine known as Botox® (called Vistabel® in the UK). These medicines contain a purified protein which has the ability to relax the facial muscles responsible for the appearance of lines and wrinkles.
Wrinkle relaxing injections produce a smoother and more youthful appearance and when expertly administered do not affect the ability to make normal facial expressions.
Wrinkle relaxing injections are the most popular cosmetic treatment in the world and have a long established reputation for their effectiveness and safety.

Wrinkle relaxing injections are a great way to treat frown lines (between the eyes), forehead wrinkles, crows feet (lines at the sides of the eyes) and for neck and upper chest rejuvenation.

The doctor will clean your skin and then inject small amounts of the medicine into the required areas with a very fine needle, anaesthesia is not usually required. The treatment will temporarily relax the desired facial muscles so they no longer crease the skin and cause wrinkles

Treatment with wrinkle relaxing injections will usually take about 15 to 20 minutes depending on how many areas are being treated.

The full benefits of treatment take 7-10 days to appear in most people. The results will last about 4 to 6 months depending on how your muscles react to the effects of treatment. After this time subsequent treatment with wrinkle relaxing injections would be required to maintain the optimal aesthetic effect.
If no subsequent treatments are administered the lines and wrinkles will eventually return to how they looked before treatment.

There is no recovery period required after having wrinkle relaxing injections and you can pretty much carry on with your activities as normal after treatment. However we suggest that you avoid rubbing the treated areas and reclining for several hours after treatment.

There can be a little temporary redness and swelling at the injection sites, which usually resolves after an hour or two. Some mild bruising can also occur in some people.
