Wrinkle Smoothing treatment – Botox®
"Botox"® has become a commonly heard word and most people know it is associated with anti ageing treatments
It is actually the trade name for the naturally occuring protein produced by the Botulinum bug - The protein relaxes muscle it is injected into by binding to the chemical responsible for muscle contraction. The process takes 1 to 2 weeks to have maximal effect and is completely reversed in three months.
Botox® has been used for decades for a wide range of medical problems associated with muscle spasms successfully. It is also used for excessive sweating and we can offer a consultation and treatment if this is a problem that affects you.
By relaxing the forehead and nasal bridge muscles the overlying wrinkles simply vanish. Repeated treatments are needed and often act to prevent wrinkles appearing due to the muscle becoming less tense after successive treatments. We recommend 3 to 4 treatments in the first year and 2 to 3 treaments in the second year.
Botox® is now available as Vistabel specifically licensed for cosmetic treatments.
Over 95% of all Botox® treatments are in the forehead, crows lines and frown line areas where results are often spectacular.
Our doctors carefully and expertly inject the treatment directly into the relevant muscles after a full anatomical assessment of your face. Only micro fine "diabetic like" needles are used and treatments take only a few minutes. Clients tolerate the treatments very well and return to their daily activities immediately.
Results take up to 2 weeks to achieve maximal effect. Our clinic offers a free assessment and free top up at two weeks if needed.
Botox® and Vistabel are prescription only medicines and can only lawfully be administered by a registered physician or dentist. Remember our clinic only uses qualified experienced doctors who are committed to our clinics on a long term basis able to follow you up at 2 weeks and 2 years!
Botox® and Vistabel are our most popular treatments and commonly combined with dermal filler products to produce dramatically youthful results.
