Treatment Overview
At our clinic we use Botulinum toxin to help reduce the movement of the muscles causing expression lines (dynamic lines). Botulinum Toxin is a naturally occurring protein produced by the bacterium Clostridium Botulinum. In a purified form, Botulinum toxin is a very safe, effective treatment not only used in cosmetic clinics, but also for a number of medical conditions, including migraine and excessive sweating.

FAQ
Is It safe?
All treatments carry a degree of risk. All risks and complications will be discussed with you at consultation and prior to any treatment being agreed.
Botulinum Toxin will be administered by a healthcare professional with specialist training. Adverse events are uncommon, usually occur within a few days of treatment and are expected to be temporary, usually resolving spontaneously within weeks.
Your practitioner will provide aftercare advice designed to minimise risk and promote speedy recovery from any expected side effects.
Does it hurt?
A very fine needle is used and generally this treatment is not painful and can be well tolerated with no anaesthetic.
Do I have to do anything differently after treatment?
Most people are able to continue with normal activities. Some will have some redness, pin-prick marks, possibly minor swelling which should settle within an hour. Bruising may be more apparent the next day and can take up to 10 days to fade. Tenderness should settle within 48 hours. It is possible to suffer a headache or a sensation of tightness or heaviness for a few days following treatment. Pain killers may be taken as required.
Will I see results instantly?
After treatment it is expected that you will start to see an improvement within 3 or 4 days. The full result will be visible at 2-3 weeks. You will be invited to attend a review appointment at 2-3 weeks where the success of the treatment may be assessed and adjustments to your personal treatment plan made if necessary.
