ANTI-AGEING INJECTIONS
An anti-wrinkle injection "Botulinum toxins" is a protein produced by a bacteria and it has been used successfully in non-surgical procedures for many years. It simply works by restricting the movement in your muscles which causes the lines and wrinkles to appear in the first place. Anti wrinkle Injections are the most effective rejuvenating treatment for subtly tackling the appearance of deep lines and wrinkles. Also preventing new lines forming by relaxing the facial muscles and reducing excessive facial movements.
FOREHEAD LINES
Forehead wrinkles appear as horizontal lines on the forehead which are more prominent when you raise your eyebrows. This movement sometimes creates a tired and stressed appearance.
To treat these, small injections are given on the forehead to prevent lines developing and deepening as well as softening existing lines specially when combined with frown area.
JAWLINE SLIMMING
(Masseter hypertrophy)
Large cheek muscles can give rise to a square or bulky looking jaw. Small Botulinum doses are injected into the enlarged Masseter muscle to reduce its size and to achieve facial slimming.
Treating the Masseter muscle with anti wrinkle treatment selectively weakens this muscle over time leading to an overall reduction in the size of this muscle. This can also be helpful for people who grind their teeth.
FROWN LINES
Frown lines can be seen as vertical lines between and above your eye brow that are the result from frowning, excessive expressions and being over exposed to the sun. As we age these frown lines become more prominent often creating an angry, stressed or tired appearance.
To treat these, small injections are given to the involved muscles in order to restrict movement causing the lines and wrinkles as well as preventing them from getting deeper.
GUMMY SMILE
Gummy Smile is a phenomenon that when some people smile, their upper lip elevates too far above their upper teeth, exposing gums and producing an unattractive smile.
This can be simply and effectively corrected with Botulinum toxin injections to reduce the activity of the muscle that elevates the upper lip.
CROW’S FEET LINES
Crow's feet are wrinkles etched in the outer corner of the eye. Unlike wrinkles or expression lines on other areas of the face, crow's feet can appear to look deeper or more pronounced on the skin . Some of the leading causes of crow's feet include UV exposure and the loss of collagen and elasticity that come with age.
By targeting the relevant muscle, small injections at either side of the eyes can treat crow’s feet wrinkles.
BROW LIFT
A brow lift is a type of procedure that treats frown lines between your brows, and elevates the height of your eyebrows. Anti-Wrinkle injections work by relaxing underlying muscles (orbicularis oculi muscle). This results in smoothing the skin and relaxing the muscles between the brows, causing unopposed pull from the muscles lifting up the eyebrows.
HYPERHIDROSIS
Hyperhidrosis (Excessive Sweating) is a common problem affecting the armpits and a major cause of distress and anxiety. Excessive sweating can happen for no obvious reason. Botox injections use botulinum toxin to block the nerve signals responsible for sweating, stopping the sweat glands from producing too much sweat. This can last between 6-8 months.
BUNNY LINES
Bunny lines are the fine wrinkles that appear when you scrunch up your nose, such as when you laugh or smile deeply. These lines can be a natural part of growing older, and some people find them charming. Others may feel that bunny lines age their face and are self-conscious about it. Botulinum toxins (Botox) temporarily limit the movement of your facial muscles which can be an effective way to minimize the appearance of bunny lines.
PEBBLED CHIN (DIMPLES)
Pebble Chin is the appearance of a chin that is uneven and rough looking. People can also be born with chin dimples which can really affect their self-confidence. We target the chin area through the use of anti wrinkle injections that work to reduce the creases and relax the movements of the muscle. In this case the muscle that is treated is the mentalis muscle (chin muscle). This is an excellent add on to those who have jawline and chin fillers. Allows the filler to last much longer.
NOSE FLARE REDUCTION/ “NOSE SLIMMING”
Anti wrinkle injections can reduce the size of a wide nose by constricting the activity of the muscles which pull the nostrils sideways and the tip of the nose downwards. Unlike surgery, anti wrinkle injections do not change the bone structure. Instead, it reduces nasal flare and lifts the nasal tip giving the appearance of a slimmer nose.
LIP FLIP
A lip flip is a quick and straightforward treatment in which we inject a small amount of neurotoxins to ‘flip’ the upper lip and give the appearance of a fuller lip. The full results show after 10 - 14 days post treatment.
DOWNTURN SMILE
With age, we tend to lose volume around our mouth, especially in the lower corners. This creates the appearance of a downturned mouth. These drooping mouth corners can age the face, giving some patients a perpetual look of sadness or anger even if they do not feel this way.
To fix this, we strategically inject wrinkle injections to stop to the muscle from contracting and causing this problem to get worse. By relaxing the muscle there will be less contraction and pulling of the muscle and skin; this creates a smoother, elevated mouth corner and an ideally happier appearance.
NEFERTITI NECK LIFT
Named after the Egyptian queen, Nefertiti, this treatment is a non-invasive, non-surgical neck lift that targets platysmal bands of muscle. Platysma is an elongated muscle that runs from the lower part of the face till the collar bone. Over-activity of this muscle can lead to saggy jawline and neck lines.
Nefertiti neck lift uses units of anti wrinkle injections to relax this muscle, lift the neck and define the jawline.
