Anti-wrinkle injections are a viable option for those looking to reduce wrinkles without going under the knife. Through this minimally invasive procedure, fine lines and wrinkles can be noticeably reduced as quickly as your first treatment.
By temporarily blocking nerve signals that cause muscles to contract, anti-wrinkle injections can minimise crow’s feet, nasolabial folds, furrowed brows, smile lines and other facial wrinkles.
As anti-wrinkle injections need regular maintenance, speak to a member of our team about our discounted Skin MOT package.

Possible Side Effects and Risks
Anti-wrinkle injection treatments come with a set of potential side effects and risks, so it’s important to be aware of them before making a decision about undergoing the procedure.
Although usually mild and temporary, the most common side effects are redness, bruising, swelling, bleeding, infection and tenderness at the injection site.
In rare cases, drooping of an eyelid or area of facial muscle weakness could become permanent if not treated accurately and promptly.
Fortunately, these symptoms can quickly be managed with proper medical attention so that your treatment continues in complete safety.
We will discuss any potential risks, side effects and how best to manage them during your consultation prior to starting your anti-wrinkle injections treatment.

Aftercare Tips to Make Your Treatment Last Longer
After your anti-wrinkle injection treatment in London, the effects will start to fade over time, so why not make the most out of your experience and use a few simple aftercare tips to help preserve the results?
To start with, make sure you get plenty of rest in the first 24-48 hours following the treatment and avoid strenuous activity that could cause undue stress on your face. It’s also important to hydrate yourself well while avoiding excessive alcohol consumption or tobacco products; both can reduce the effectiveness of the injections.
It may also be beneficial to apply a cold compress to soothe any redness or swelling and be sure not to rub your face harshly.
