           WRINKLE CORRECTION                TREATMENT (BOTOX®)





 What is it used to treat?


Wrinkle Correction treatment is a revolutionary approach to eliminating unwanted wrinkles and lines. It is effective on crow's feet (on the side of the eyes), frown lines (between the eyes) and worry lines (on the forehead).

Wrinkle Correction Treatment is also effective on dynamic wrinkles. These are wrinkles and lines which are caused by the movement of facial muscles. Dynamic wrinkles and lines may be treated with Botox® to prevent the formation of static wrinkles and lines. Static wrinkles and lines cannot be treated effectively with Botox® as they are evident without muscle movement. These are the lines and wrinkles that are evident on a relaxed face. However, following multiple treatments with Botox® these lines can fade over time.​


​

What product do we use?
​

The botulinum toxin we use contains a specially prepared naturally occurring protein that originates from bacteria. The purified protein has been used in clinical practice for more than 20 years. This extensive experience confirms the established safety profile of this product. We use Botox® for our Line Relaxing Treatment, which is manufactured by the Allergan Corporation and has been subject to stringent trials to ensure its safety. It was licensed in 2002 by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) for the temporary treatment of moderate to severe frown lines in people aged 18 to 65.  In 2014 Allergan also obtained the licence to treat ‘Crows Feet’.



Results


The smoothing effect usually lasts up to four months and will take maximum effect approx 10-14 days after the treatment at which time you will be asked to attend a review appointment where any refinement treatment can be carried out. Improvements from Botox® Treatment last for approximately four months, but if you discontinue treatment, lines and wrinkles will re-appear and look as they did prior to treatment. Research has shown that prolonged use of Botox® Treatment can lead to the effects lasting longer.

This treatment should always be performed by an experienced, fully trained injector who can make sure that the correct amount is injected in precisely the right areas. Our Nurse practitioner is a fully qualified independent experienced Nurse prescriber who will always ensure that you have the look you desire.

Aftercare

How to care for your skin will be discussed by your practitioner at the initial consultation and immediately after your treatment. Clients will also receive written literature on aftercare and all clients will be offered the opportunity to attend a two week review following treatment to discuss expectations, top ups and any concerns.

​After treatment

Botulinum Toxin is also used to treat HYPERHYDROSIS (excessive sweating) – please see separate link for full details of this treatment.

Wrinkle types


Rhytides (wrinkle) are generally of three different types:

•  Those due to loss of volume in the face, particularly the upper face, causing the face to respond to gravity and drop, forming lines e.g. nose to mouth lines.

•  Those due to the repetitive sleep positions that mark the skin. These lines will deepen over time.

•  Those due to repetitive movement of muscles e.g. crows feet around the eyes and frown lines. These are dynamic wrinkles and are the type of wrinkles that will respond well to treatment with botulinum toxin.

How does it work?

A minute quantity is injected into the muscles that cause dynamic lines, for example frown lines. The injection temporarily prevents nerve signals from reaching the muscle and, as a result, the muscle relaxes. As the muscle relaxes the skin smoothes out.

Prior to the treatment a full medical consultation will take place to ensure that there are no medical contraindications.

The actual procedure takes approximately 10 – 15 minutes and most people return to normal activity immediately afterwards.
