Wrinkles are the most common and obvious sign of skin ageing. As our skin ages, it loses volume and elasticity, losing the ability to bounce back. As a result, creases that naturally occur as our skin moves become permanent due to repetitive movements such as facial expressions. An anti-ageing injectable treatment can help to slow down these signs of aging.
Anti-wrinkle injections have been used for more than two decades in aesthetic cosmetics to rejuvenate the appearance of skin ageing, smooth existing wrinkles, and prevent others from developing. Our highly-trained Brizel Med Spa Doctors will be happy to advise what treatments would be best suited to beauty goals at a free consultation. After this, they will inject the relaxants into the muscles. These will work to prevent the facial muscles from contracting, restricting muscle movements. Reducing the muscle’s movement smoothens the appearance of fine lines, leaving you wrinkle-free.
The most common areas of application for wrinkle treatment with muscle relaxants are crow’s feet (lines around the eyes), frown lines (lines between the eyebrows), and forehead lines. However, this cosmetic procedure can also be used to reduce bunny lines (lines on the side of the nose), to avoid a gummy smile (to lower the upper lip and reduce the appearance of the upper gum), to lift the brow area, or to slim the jawline (facial slimming). Also, excessive sweating can be treated with muscle relaxant injections.
The benefits of anti-aging injections can be seen up to 4 months after the treatment and typically take between 15 and 30 minutes to complete. A common worry of many patients is that they will look artificial after treatment with anti-wrinkle injections, but at Brizel Med Spa we are committed to delivering natural results. Our Brizel Med Spa doctors will be happy to advise a complimentary consultation.
