ANTI WRINKLE FAQS
Helpful Information
WHO IS SUITABLE FOR ANTI WRINKLE?
Most people will find some benefit in anti wrinkle treatments on their forehead, frown lines and crows feet. If your wrinkles are very deep when your face is resting then you may notice an improvement but it will not remove your lines. You may need a combination of treatments which will be discussed at consultation. You must by law be over 18 years old, not pregnant or breastfeeding or have an allergy to eggs.
HOW DOES IT WORK.
Botulinum Toxin A was developed for medical purposes around 50 years ago. It was then experimented with in cosmetic practice in the last 30 years and has become one of the worlds most leading aesthetic treatments. It works by preventing the muscles on your face that cause wrinkles from moving. If the muscles can’t move you don’t have such severe wrinkles. It wears off naturally after around 3-4 months though this differs for every individual it is a rough guide.
WHAT ARE THE SIDE EFFECTS & RECOVERY TIME.
The great thing about anti wrinkle treatments if that the procedure generally only takes a few minutes, is virtually pain free and has no down time required! There are some basic aftercare requirements which will be discussed at time of consultation.
Side effects are rare but occasionally you can experience droopy eyelid, raised ‘Spock’ brows and dry eyes. You will be offered a 2 week review if required free of charge but any time after 17days from initial treatment there would be a charge and possibility of treatment not being suitable until 12 weeks have passed.
