Over time, our skin naturally ages and overactive muscle movement slowly wears away the collagen which is in our skin, causing the skin to crease and lines and wrinkles to appear.
Line & wrinkle treatments work by relaxing these muscles and thus prevent the formation of wrinkles and also smoothes out lines.
Line & wrinkle treatments only work on the muscles which are injected, and leave the surrounding muscles to function normally and enable normal facial expressions, The main difference however being less wrinkles.
Botox treatment can only be administered by doctors who have been fully trained in its use.
Before having treatment all your worries and questions will be addressed in a consultation and the doctor will decide if your are suitable as a patient to be treated with Botox.
The Botox is injected directly into the wrinkles and this results in temporarily relaxing the facial muscles and preventing the formation of wrinkles and also existing lines are softened.
The doctor usees a very fine needle and because of this most patients only suffer mild and temporary discomfort. The entire procedure is normally over within about 10 minutes.
Botox treatment has been used on over 1 million patients throughout the world for about 20 years and is very safe and is supported by a wealth of long-term safety data and medical knowledge
You will probably not need to have another treatment for around 3-4 months.After repeated treatments, the effects of Botox seem to last longer.
Your physician will discuss the results with you and advise you on repeat treatments that may be suitable for you. If you have a good initial result,doctors will not normally offer any top up treatment for at least 3 months.
If your original lines are fairly shallow, you should notice a sizeable reduction in the depth and length of your original lines treated after about 12 months, as the skin has a chance to regenerate itself and without constantly being creased by the underlying muscles.
If your lines happen to be very deep, the doctor may also mentionthe additional use of what are called dermal filters or some other type of complementary treatment to get the best results possible.
