What are anti-wrinkle injections?

Many of us have concerns about the ever growing signs of ageing. At your individual consultation, we will provide you with a personalised anti-wrinkle plan, which will help revive and refresh your skin.

Anti-wrinkle treatments aren't just for women, in fact, injectables for men are growing in popularity year on year. Our medical aesthetic practitioners use an injectable medical product to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles on the face temporarily.

Wrinkles are a natural part of the ageing process. However certain outside factors like smoking, environmental pollution, exposure to the sun and looking at screens and monitors can all take their toll on the skin, especially around your eyes and on your forehead.

Aging causes the collagen and elastin fibres in your face to break down, leading to the skin losing its firm, smooth texture and for wrinkles to develop.

What are the benefits of anti-wrinkle injections?

Following the anti-wrinkle injections, the muscles in your face relax, which helps your skin to appear fresher and younger. The treatment is a temporary measure which can reduce the effects of ageing by smoothing out fine lines and wrinkles. Crow’s feet and frown lines can be diminished to reveal a more youthful, plumper look.

After your anti-wrinkle treatment, it will take between 5 to 14 days for you to see the results, and these will last up to 16 weeks. This is a fast and effective procedure – only around 30 minutes - which is carried out by expert medical aesthetic practitioners. And there is minimal downtime afterwards, so you should be able to get back to your usual schedule following treatment.

Are there any risks?

It is important to weigh up the risks involved against the benefits that the treatment can bring – just as with all types of medical aesthetic treatment.

Your medical aesthetic practitioner will talk you through any risks and complications, although possible side effects are usually minimal. They can include mild bruising around the site of the injection, you may have a headache which will usually subside within 24 of treatment, and an allergic reaction, although rare, is possible.

Is it right for me?

Anti-wrinkle injections could be right for you if you have concerns regarding natural signs of ageing. If you would like to reduce the appearance of frown lines on your forehead, or if you have wrinkles around your eyes that that are bothering you, anti-wrinkle injections could be the solution. They can help achieve a younger look, leading to a boost in your self-confidence.

Once we have gathered information on your medical history, and discussed it with you at your free treatment consultation, your medical aesthetic practitioner will be able to understand whether you are a suitable candidate for anti-wrinkle injections.

FAQ

Anti-wrinkle Treatment FAQs

More FAQs

How much do anti-wrinkle treatments cost?

The cost of your anti-wrinkle injections will depend on the number of areas being treated. This can be discussed with your medical aesthetic practitioner at your free consultation.

How do anti-wrinkle treatments work?

Anti-wrinkle injections work by temporarily paralyzing the muscle to reduce movement. This stops the skin from creasing in the areas treated such as frown lines and crow’s feet.

Are there any after effects or side effects?

You may feel a slight bruising around the injection site, or a mild headache after the treatment, but this should subside within 24 hours.

When will I be able to see the results of the treatment?

The results will be visible in around 5-14 days.

How long will the results last for?

The results usually last up to 4 months.

What causes wrinkles?

Over exposure to the sun, smoking, city living, squinting at monitors and, of course, the ageing process all take their toll on your skin. As you get older, your face starts to develop fine lines and wrinkles as collagen and elastin fibres break down, causing skin to lose its strength and smoothness.

Your journey step by step

Your consultation

Your journey with The Hospital Group begins with a consultation with our friendly medical aesthetic practitioners, this may be an Aesthetician, Nurse Practitioner or Doctor. During this conversation you can talk through why you’re interested in this treatment, how much it costs, whether you’re suitable for treatment, if you’ll need a one off treatment, or a full course, as well as potential treatment dates.

You can ask our medical aesthetic practitioners any questions as they are extremely knowledgeable and have undertaken extensive training. If you feel ready to proceed, we can carry out a laser patch test (where applicable) and book your first treatment for a date and time that suits you.

The treatment

You can ask your medical aesthetic practitioner any final questions on the day of the treatment. All pre- and post-treatment advice will be discussed prior to the day itself, so you will know exactly what to expect during your treatment, including how long it will take, and how it will feel.

Recovery

For most medical aesthetic treatments, you will be able to leave the clinic as soon as your treatment has been completed, and you should be able to go about your normal day-to-day activities. If you experience any mild discomfort, redness or swelling, this will subside within the following days. Any specific aftercare requirements will be discussed at your consultation.

Aftercare

We are here to support you throughout your medical aesthetics journey, we believe that the highest quality aftercare is just as important as the treatment itself. If you have any questions or concerns at all, you can contact us at any time.
