Here are some of the most commonly asked questions about Anti Wrinkle Injections:

What are Anti Wrinkle Injections?

Anti wrinkle injections most commonly use Botulinum (Botox), which everyone has heard of before, to relax the muscles in the area where it is being injected. By relaxing the muscles this prevents movement which causes wrinkles and lines.

Filler such as Juvederm can also be used as an anti wrinkle injection, these plump up the area where it has been injected to smooth out any lines or wrinkles.

Where Can Anti Wrinkle Injections be Used?

what can anti wrinkle injections be used for?Anti Wrinkle injections are primarily used in the face for treatments such as:

Botox can also be used in a number of ways not solely for anti wrinkle injections. Botox can be used to treat; bruxism, Hyperhidrosis (Excessive Sweating), migraine treatment and a more recent one the ‘Blotox Blowdry’.

More and more uses are being found for botox every day as it continues to be in more common use.

How long do Anti Wrinkle Injections last?

Anti Wrinkle Injections using botox typically last 4-6 months depending on the person and take about 2 weeks to take full effect.

Anti wrinkle injections using dermal fillers typically lasts 12- 18 months. How long exactly they last varies from person to person and depends on factors like how much do you move your face or if you talk a lot?

Are Anti Wrinkle Injections Noticeable?

how long does it take for anti wrinkle injections to work?

As botox anti wrinkle injections do not take full effect for up to two weeks many people like to pop in on their lunch break for an anti wrinkle treatment and go back to work without anyone noticing anything.

With dermal filler you will have a noticeably fresh faced appearance that will be obvious to you right away however it is not immediately noticeable that this was due to filler.

In fact, one client of ours was upset that her husband didn’t notice a difference when she came home that day, it was only weeks later when he saw a photo of them together that he noticed how old he looked next to her!
