Wrinkle Relaxers
More and more people are turning to cosmetic professionals for facial rejuvenation techniques to help their face reflect the way they feel inside.
These are simple, non-surgical treatments that take around 10 minutes. After you have discussed with your doctor the effects you desire, small amounts of the product are injected using a very fine needle into the specific muscles. This is a purified protein that relaxes wrinkle causing muscles, creating a rejuvenated appearance. The active ingredient is derived from bacteria in much the same way penicillin is derived from mould.
It is manufactured in sterile laboratory conditions. This is a prescription- only medicine and treatment is only available from a qualified medical practitioner.
Discomfort is typically minimal and brief, and no anaesthetic is required. The injection may sting for a few seconds but normal activities can be resumed soon after.
The initial effects are seen in 2 to 3 days but their maximum effect may take up to 2 weeks to become established. The effects can last from 3 to 4 months and may last longer with repeat treatments over time.
The dose recommendation for the treatment will vary depending on the individual situation and the severity of your lines.
Areas that can be treated are:
- Crow’s Feet
- Vertical lines between the eyes (Glabella)
- Horizontal forehead lines
- Bunny lines on the side of the nose
- Non-Surgical browlift
- Down-turned corners of the mouth
- Top lip lines
- Platysma muscle bands on the neck (turkey neck)
- Relaxing the centre of the chin
As well as being a highly effective wrinkle treatment, wrinkle relaxers have also been found to be successful in treating excessive sweating (hyperhydrosis) by decreasing the sweat production of the glands in the problem areas.
