What are anti wrinkle injections?
Botulinum toxin A (Bocouture) often referred to as ant-wrinkle or muscle relaxant injections works by temporarily blocking the nerve signals to the muscles. The muscle becomes relaxed, in turn reducing the appearance of the lines and wrinkles.
What are muscle relaxant injections?
Muscle relaxants consist of a purified version of a protein and toxin produced by a bacteria found in meat. When injected into targeted muscles, these products work by temporarily blocking nerve signals to the muscle. This controlled weakening reduces muscle movement, causing the wrinkles over the muscles to become smoother.
What is the difference between Botox injections and Dermal Fillers?
Muscle relaxants are used to treat wrinkles and lines caused by repeated muscle movement, such as smile lines and forehead creases. They work by temporarily weakening the underlying muscles. Dermal fillers are used to plump up the skin by adding volume. They may be used to fill in wrinkles caused by sagging skin, to restore volume lost to the ageing process, or to enhance areas of the face such as the lips and cheeks.
Which areas can be treated?
Muscle relaxants have been used successfully to treat most areas of the face, smoothing wrinkles caused by facial muscles. Common treatment areas include forehead wrinkles, frown lines, crow’s feet and horizontal lines on the forehead.
What I the ideal time to start?
Many clients begin receiving injections of muscle relaxants as soon as they start seeing signs of wrinkles. Others wait until their wrinkles are more substantial before seeking treatment. There is no reason to delay seeking cosmetic injections and it is best to start before lines become fully ingrained. While most clients begin seeking treatment in their early 30s or 40s, it can be performed safely on clients who are both younger and older. Some patients in their 20’s have injectable treatments to prevent wrinkles and lines from forming.
Are there any age restrictions?
We do not treat anyone under the age of 18 years.
Is the treatment available for men and women?
Yes, muscle relaxant treatment works well on both men and women.
Can I have the treatment while pregnant?
No, for safety reasons you cannot have this treatment if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
How long will the injecting take?
The injection process itself is over in just a few moments. You can expect to spend half an hour or less in the clinic. The final results will be seen two weeks after botox injections as this is how long it takes botox to take effect on your muscles.
Will it hurt?
The discomfort during this treatment is minimal. We use a very thin needle and the injection process is over in a matter of minutes.For very anxious clients a topical numbing cream can be applied if desired.
Can I still make expressions?
One of the worries many clients express is that the injections will make it difficult for them to move their faces. While muscle relaxants do relax the muscle activity causing wrinkles, when used correctly they will not affect your ability to frown, look surprised, and make other facial movements. When overdone, muscle relaxants can have a tendency to cause a frozen appearance. This is why it is important to choose carefully when considering aesthetic treatments. City Aesthetics Clinic only use practitioners who are skilled at using the right amount of product. You will not look as though you’ve had “work done” and will still be able to move your facial muscles.
How long does this treatment last for?
The results of muscle relaxant injections generally last 3-4months, depending on the area treated. As its effects wear off, the skin will return to its natural, pre-treatment state. If you decide against further injections, your skin will be left in the same condition it was before treatment; it will not be any more wrinkled than it was before treatment.
Many clients return for further treatment when they see the results of the initial treatment wearing off. For some clients top ups are sometimes necessary, as everyone is different, but are always free with us as we aim to provide sufficient levels in the first place.
You need to leave at least 12 weeks between one full treatment to the next. If you are exposed to the toxin too frequently your body can create antibodies to fight against the treatment resulting in anti wrinkle injections resistance where it no longer works.
Is the treatment reversible.
Anti-wrinkle injections will naturally wear off over time, approximately 3-4 months.
