The ideal solution for unwanted wrinkles
Anti-wrinkle treatments are a cosmetic treatment that uses a minute quantity of highly diluted botulinum toxin to temporarily paralyze facial muscles. It’s an ideal solution for addressing unwanted wrinkles and fine lines on the face, effectively reducing their appearance and granting the skin a smoother, more youthful look. By targeting the root cause of unwanted wrinkles and fine lines, the treatment relaxes the contracted muscles responsible for their appearance, giving smooth and natural results.
Anti-wrinkle treatments treat:
- Forehead creases
- Vertical frown lines between the eyebrows
- Crow’s feet around the eyes
- Bunny lines around the bridge of the nose
- Creases and wrinkles on the chin
- Smoker’s lines around the lips
- Other facial creases and wrinkles
What to expect?
During your anti-wrinkle treatments session, which typically lasts around 20-30 minutes, you’ll experience minimal discomfort. Ahead of the procedure, your medical provider will engage in a discussion regarding your concerns and desired outcomes, meticulously marking the specific areas of your face. Throughout the procedure, tiny amounts of the botulinum toxin will be delicately injected into the marked areas using a fine needle. While you may feel a slight pinch or sting, discomfort is generally minimal.
How do anti-wrinkle treatments work?
Anti-wrinkle treatments contain the active ingredient botulinum toxin type A, which has the capability to temporarily inhibit communication between nerve endings and specific muscles. By precisely injecting Anti-wrinkle treatments into targeted facial muscles, it can effectively relax over-contracted muscles responsible for the development of expression lines and dynamic wrinkles. As facial muscles gradually relax over time, associated wrinkles smooth out and diminish from the skin’s surface. The results emerge gradually and typically last for 3 to 4 months.
Prevent new wrinkles
Embracing early intervention with anti-wrinkle treatments can serve as a proactive measure to stave off or postpone the emergence of new wrinkles. Dynamic wrinkles evolve into permanence due to prolonged use of facial muscles associated with expressions. By commencing anti-wrinkle treatment treatments in your 20s, you have the opportunity to thwart the deepening or permanence of expression lines, thereby delaying or even preventing the onset of wrinkles.
