Anti Wrinkle Injections (Botox) are made of purified proteins that are injected into the face, and work by blocking nerve signals in the muscles. The muscles freeze, inhibiting their actions reducing the formation of future lines and wrinkles and ensuring current ones are removed. The skin is left looking smooth, youthful and renewed.
At New Birkdale Clinic, we use Botulinum Toxin Type A (Botox), a superb form of wrinkle relaxing injections that work by temporarily relaxing facial muscles and preventing repetitive movements that cause wrinkles.
Common areas of treatment are, forehead lines, frown lines (between the eyebrows), lines around lips, bunny lines (lines on nose while smiling), jawline and neckline.
Like our other treatments, the patient will have an initial consultation with the doctor to assess the facial structure and skin age. The doctor will also take into account the medical history to address any concerns or specific skin condition.
Our doctor will also advise the face areas where the anti wrinkle injection will be most beneficial and how much of the injectable is needed.
The treatment area will be fully cleaned to get rid of any dirt, oil or makeup. The doctor may also use a numbing cream for minimal pain and discomfort.
Botulinum Toxin Type A will be then precisely injected in small doses into the muscles below the wrinkles and/or lines, which will momentarily relax the muscles.
The number of injections depend on the number of targeted areas but usually range from 3-10 injections.
The process usually takes as less as 10-15 minutes and most of the people cope up with the minimal pain.
Anti wrinkle injections are not the same as dermal fillers. Dermal fillers are used for restoring volume and enhancing facial contour. On the other hand, anti wrinkle injections are used to smooth wrinkles by relaxing the facial muscles.
Dermal fillers usually use Hyaluronic acid while wrinkles are treated with Botulinum Toxin Type A.
The main treatment areas for dermal fillers are, cheeks, lips, chin, jawline and under eye hollows. Anti wrinkle injection, on the other hand, treat deep wrinkles around forehead, frown lines, crows feet.
Wrinkles develop naturally through ageing and sun exposure, but can also form due to laughing, smiling and frowning repeatedly over time.
Therefore, Anti Wrinkle Injections are suitable for those who would like to correct the following:
These issues can result in further concerns, such as:
Anti wrinkle injections that use Botulinum Toxin Type A typically last 3-6months. It also depends on area of treatment like:
Excessive sweating treatment – 6-12 months
Other than area of treatment, the longevity depends on facial movement (stress level could elevate facial muscles movement), metabolism ( fast metabolism breaks down the toxin faster), lifestyle (smoking, exercising, sun exposure).
For best results, keep getting your face treated from time to time as this will train the muscles and lead to longer lasting results.
Patients may notice slight redness and swelling in the injected areas but this will fade away within hours after the procedure.
It is possible to see some milk bruising, especially around sensitive areas like eyes.
Thea head can feel a bit sick or heavy head for some hours after the surgery but should better within a day.
Patients may experience slight discomfort in the injected areas just for a few hours after the anti wrinkle treatment.
If the injection is around the eye area, it could lead to slight irritation making the eyes watery or dry.
To take the best aftercare, set a follow up consultation with our doctors and minimize any potential side effects.
