Botox® (Cosmetic)
Smoother lines and a rested, refreshed appearance.
Softening the lines that age the face
Over time, the repeated movements of the face such as raising the brows and squinting can leave lines that linger even when the face is at rest. Anti-wrinkle injections relax the small muscles that create these lines, so the skin becomes smooth and the face looks rested.
It is one of the most popular treatments in the world for good reason. Quick, requires no downtime, and when done with a light, precise hand, the result is natural.
Anti-wrinkle injections use botulinum toxin, a purified protein that relaxes targeted muscles. They are most commonly used to soften:
• Frown lines between the brows
• Horizontal forehead lines
• Crow's feet around the eyes
A gentle lift of the brows
• The jawline, slimming it and easing pain from jaw clenching (masseter)
• Prominent vertical neck bands (platysmal bands)
What suits you is decided together at your consultation.
Where it works best
Is this right for you
You may be a good candidate if you:
• Have lines that show with expression, or that linger at rest
• Would like a refreshed look without surgery or downtime
• Prefer a natural result that keeps your expression
• Are in good general health and not pregnant or breastfeeding
The best results come from precise, conservative treatment, so the aim is always to soften rather than freeze. At your consultation, your face is assessed at rest and in movement, and the plan is tailored to your features.
Quick, precise, and comfortable
The treatment takes only a few minutes. After assessing your face, a series of tiny injections is placed into the targeted muscles using a very fine needle. Most people describe it as a quick pinch, and no anaesthetic is needed. You can return to your day straight away.
Simple aftercare for the best result
For the first four hours, avoid rubbing or massaging the treated areas and remain upright. The rest of the day is best kept free of strenuous exercise. Small bumps at the injection sites settle quickly, and any minor bruising fades over the following days.
A natural result that appears gradually
The first changes usually appear within a few days, with the full result developing over around two weeks. The face looks refreshed rather than altered, and movement remains natural. Results typically last around three to four months, although this varies between individuals and treatment areas.
-
No. The aim is a natural, refreshed look, not a frozen one. Treatment is precise and conservative, softening the lines while leaving your expressions intact. Done well, people see that you look rested, without knowing why.
-
Very little. The needle is very fine, and most people describe each injection as a quick pinch. No anaesthetic is needed, and the whole treatment takes only a few minutes.
-
Around three to four months for most people, depending on the area treated and your own muscle strength. With regular treatment, the effect often lasts longer over time.
