Muscle-Relaxing Injections

Muscle-relaxing injections offer an effective solution for smoothing fine lines and wrinkles and enhancing natural features. This treatment can also prevent future wrinkles and slow down the signs of ageing. Muscle-relaxing injections are based on botulinum toxin, which blocks nerve signals travelling to the injected muscle, reducing its motility. The skin above the muscle smooths out, causing a dramatic reduction in lines and wrinkles.

The treatment:

Our muscle-relaxing injections temporarily relax targeted muscles, resulting in a smoother, more refreshed appearance. This treatment is particularly effective for dynamic wrinkles, which are visible during facial expressions like frowning, smiling, or laughing. While maintaining your natural expressiveness, our goal is to soften those persistent lines that remain after the expression.

The procedure is generally painless due to the use of ultrafine needles. However, a local anaesthetic cream can be arranged during the initial consultation for those uncomfortable with needles or seeking additional comfort.

Every client has unique aesthetic goals, ranging from subtle softening to more pronounced line relaxation, which will be discussed in depth during the initial consultation. Treatable areas include frown lines, forehead lines, crow’s feet, and the creation of a brow lift. Additionally, our injections can enhance a gummy smile, streamline the face or help with teeth clenching by injecting the masseter muscles (our chewing muscles) and address excessive underarm sweating with remarkable efficacy.

Expected Results:

The benefits of muscle-relaxing injections become noticeable within a few days post-treatment, with optimal muscle relaxation observed around 3 weeks after. We will schedule a follow-up consultation or video review after your procedure to make any necessary adjustments.

When properly administered, the effects of muscle relaxing injections can last between 3 to 5 months.
