What are muscle relaxing injections?
Anti Wrinkle Injections are a simple, safe and effective injectable treatment for between the eyebrows (glabellar lines), forehead lines, crows feet (around the eyes), bunny lines (around the nose) and smoker’s lines (vertical lines around the mouth), resulting in a softer, more relaxed and pleasant appearance. OnabotulinumtoxinA is a clear liquid which is injected with a very fine needle into the area to be treated, the muscles relax and the skin smooths out over about 5 days. It is manufactured under several trade names including Botox, Dysport, Bocature and Azelure.
How long does Anti Wrinkle Injections last?
The effect lasts between four to six months and can be repeated when needed. As the muscles are retrained and weaken from disuse, most people require less frequent treatments.

How does it work?
The main cause of lines and wrinkles in the skin are the muscle’s activity beneath the skin. Cosmetic injections work by blocking impulses of nerves to the muscles, which reduces the muscle’s activity preventing the onset of lines and wrinkles. Anti Wrinkle Injections is typically aimed at partial muscle blockage, in order to relax facial muscles without stiffening them, allowing for natural facial expression. When the facial muscles are blocked, it allows the skin over them to renew its elasticity, removing wrinkles.
Positive results can typically be seen between four and fourteen days. For most individuals, Botox injections only cause mild discomfort.
