Anti-Wrinkle Injections
Anti-Wrinkle injections are procedures where an active ingredient is injected into the treatment area to relax muscles that cause wrinkles. Our nurse Monica, only uses a superior and proven solution of muscle relaxing injections.
The procedure only takes about 10 minutes and the discomfort is minimal and brief. After the injection, it takes about 5-7 days to notice the effect and 10 days for the full effect.
The solution has been used for cosmetic purposes for over 15 years and for medical purposes for over 25 years. In addition to its cosmetic use, the solution has been used to treat cerebral palsy in children and movement disorders in adults. Although the anti-wrinkle injections have been used for many years they should not be used in pregnancy, lactating mothers and other medical conditions. It is very important to tell Monica if you have health problems or on any medications prior to treatment.
Although side effects do occasionally occur, Monica will take particular care to minimise them. Minor side effects include bruising, which may last 5-7 days, occasional redness or swelling, which usually goes in a few hours. More significant side effects relate to dosage and positioning and that is why Monica continues to undergo regular training and upgrading to fine tune her skills.
These more significant side effects include uneven results, poor or failed results, puffiness around the eyes and even mouth or eye droop if the anti-wrinkle injections placement is inappropriate. These more significant side effects usually improve in 2-4 weeks and can improve quicker with appropriate care.
It lasts for approximately 3 months, depending on the individual. The result will usually wear off progressively after 2 months as expression lines gradually return to their original appearance. The lines will never be worse after treatment. For some clients, the more often you have the treatment the less frequently it is required as the effects may last longer with each application.
