Anti-Wrinkle Injections
Anti-wrinkle injections (Botulinum Toxin) are used to soften dynamic facial lines and restore a refreshed, rested appearance. At our nurse-led clinic in Wimbledon, treatments are tailored to the individual, focusing on subtle, natural results and facial harmony. Commonly treated areas include the frown, forehead and crow’s feet.​
Frown Lines
Frown lines are the vertical creases that appear between the eyebrows, generating a tired or angry look. Injections can subtly smooth these frown lines, resulting in a rejuvenated and more relaxed appearance.
Forehead Lines
Horizontal forehead lines are mostly due to genetic or sun damage, and can also result in the formation of deeper creases. Injections help smooth wrinkles by relaxing the muscles, which stops the contractions that make lines noticeable.
Crow's Feet
Crow’s feet are wrinkles that appear around the eyes and tend to become more pronounced when you smile or squint. Injectables help reduce the visibility of crow’s feet by relaxing the muscles that surround the corners of the eyes.
Lines Above Upper Lip
Lip wrinkles, lip lines, or smoker’s lines, are the little vertical lines that form above the upper lips of older adults. Injections will help the muscles that surrounds the lips to relax and when it relaxes, the upper lip wrinkles will soften and smooth.
Bunny Lines
Bunny lines are the fine wrinkles that appear when you scrunch up your nose, such as when you laugh or smile deeply. Small injections on the sides of the nose can relax the muscles that cause these wrinkles and smooth the areas out.
Brow Lift
Anti-wrinkle injections are effective at relaxing certain muscles around the eyes to help create an overall lift in the eyebrows The eyebrow height increases which creates a more open eyed, fresh look.
Gummy Smile
A gummy smile is when one smiles, the lip rests high on the gums. It can effectively be treated with Botox. when injected, it can relax the muscles in the upper lip and limit the rise of the upper lip when smiling, so the gums will remain covered.
