BOTULINUM TOXIN
Botulinum toxin is a prescription-only injectable treatment that relaxes targeted muscles to soften dynamic wrinkles such as forehead lines, frown lines and crow's feet. It's also used to treat masseter muscle overactivity (teeth grinding/bruxism), platysmal bands in the neck, and excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis). It creates a smoother, fresher appearance while preserving natural expression. All treatments begin with a medical consultation to assess suitability.
Botulinum toxin temporarily relaxes selected facial muscles, reducing movement that causes expression lines. This smooths wrinkles while maintaining a natural look.
Treatment is quick, usually taking 15–30 minutes depending on the areas treated. Small injections are placed precisely into targeted muscles.
There is little to no downtime, and most patients return to normal daily activities immediately after treatment.
Results are not instant. Changes begin to appear after a few days, with full effect visible within 10–14 days.
Ideal for adults concerned by wrinkles caused by repeated facial movement, especially on the forehead and around the eyes.
Temporary side effects may include redness, swelling, bruising, mild headache or slight asymmetry. These are usually short-lived.
Common treatment areas include:
- Forehead lines
- Frown lines
- Crow's feet
- Masseter/teeth grinding (bruxism)
- Platysmal bands (neck)
- Excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis)
Avoid rubbing treated areas, strenuous exercise and lying flat for several hours after treatment. Follow practitioner advice carefully.
As botulinum toxin is prescription-only in the UK, treatment is provided only after consultation with a qualified prescriber.
