Anti-wrinkle Treatment

Muscle relaxing treatment is one of the most commonly requested aesthetic anti-ageing cosmetic procedures.

Muscle relaxing treatment is a safe and reliable solution to treat fine lines and wrinkles. There is virtually no down time and it creates a relaxed, refreshed, youthful appearance.

Which areas can be treated?

The most common areas treated by muscle relaxing treatment are vertical lines on the forehead, horizontal frown lines, as well as crow’s feet around the eyes. ​ It can also be used to create an eyebrow lift, to treat a gummy smile, to reduce neck bands, as well as to treat the downturned corners of the mouth. ​

They can be used to reduce the bulk of muscle, slim and refine the jawline, as well as treat dimpling of the chin.

Consultation and treatment

Muscle relaxing treatment is a safe and reliable treatment. Prior to treatment, all patients are required to complete a medical history form and a consent form. There is ample opportunity to ask any questions you are not sure about.

During treatment, the doctor administers small amounts of botulinum toxin to the targeted muscle using an ultra-fine needle.

The results of the treatment are usually visible within 3-14 days. After 3-4 months, the results will fade and return to their former state. Repeated treatments weaken the muscles and can lead to prolonged effects and less frequent treatments.

Maintenance treatments are required if you wish to maintain the results. ​Patients should avoid alcoholic beverages before treatment and schedule treatment for at least 2 weeks before any important events.

Aftercare

After your treatment, your doctor will go through aftercare advice with you to maximise your treatment benefits. You can resume normal activities immediately after the appointment and drive yourself home or return to work.

Exercise should be avoided for 4-6 hours after the treatment, and the area should not be massaged for at least 24 hours. It is safe to fly after the treatment; however, we recommend you wait at least 48 hours before a long-haul flight. ​

We advise a review appointment 2 weeks after your first appointment; however, they are generally not required for subsequent appointments.
