Anti-wrinkle treatments for the upper face
Anti-wrinkle treatment for the upper face using Botox® works by temporarily blocking the nerve signal that causes a muscle to contract. When injected into specific areas the muscle is relaxed and fewer lines form, therefore having a smoothing effect on the face. Lines and wrinkles are prevented or reduced and in some cases disappear completely.
Areas that can be treated:
• The frontalis ∼ the horizontal lines on the forehead when the brows are raised
• Crows feet ∼ smile lines around the eyes
• The glabella ∼ the frown lines between the brows
• The nasalis ∼ bunny lines to the nose*
Treatment guide
What to expect?
As Botox® is a prescription only medicine you will have an initial consultation with a Nurse Prescriber to establish your suitability for treatment and to discuss any concerns or questions you have. All consultations are £50 which is redeemable against your treatment cost. If you decide to go ahead with the treatment a £50 non-refundable deposit will be required to secure your appointment on a different day. Both the consultation and the deposit fees will be deducted from the total cost.
How does it work?
Commonly known as Botox®, Botulinum Toxin Type A works by temporarily blocking the nerve signal that causes a muscle to contract. When injected into specific areas the muscle is relaxed and fewer lines form, therefore having a smoothing effect to the face. Lines and wrinkles are prevented or reduced and in some cases disappear completely. Please be aware that results may vary.
Who will be doing the treatment?
At The Skin Suite® we believe in the highest standard of care, you will only ever be treated with Botox® by a fully qualified and appropriately trained Nurse.
Does it hurt?
The needle used to administer Botox® is very fine and most patients experience very little discomfort.
How long will it last?
Normally results last for up to 4 months but may last longer, repeat treatments may be required for maintenance.
Recovery time?
There is always a risk of some irritation or bruising to the site of injection but this is rare. Recovery time is minimal to none.
