Anti-Wrinkle Injections
Say goodbye to fine lines and wrinkles with our expert anti-wrinkle treatments. At Wellington Cosmetic Clinic, we offer safe, effective, and natural-looking results using medical-grade Botulinum Toxin. Whether you’re looking to soften forehead lines, crow’s feet, or frown lines, our tailored treatments help restore a refreshed, youthful appearance.
What Are Anti-Wrinkle Injections?
Anti-wrinkle injections work by temporarily relaxing specific facial muscles to smooth dynamic lines caused by facial expressions like frowning, squinting, or smiling. The active ingredient, Botulinum Toxin Type A, blocks the nerve signals to the muscles, reducing their movement and preventing the formation or deepening of wrinkles.
Areas Commonly Treated:
- Forehead lines
- Frown lines (between the eyebrows)
- Crow’s feet (around the eyes)
- Bunny lines (on the nose)
- Lip lines (“smoker’s lines”)
- Gummy Smile
- Chin dimpling
- Neck bands
What to Expect
The treatment is quick, usually around 15–30 minutes and involves minimal discomfort. You can return to your daily activities immediately, making it an ideal “lunchtime” procedure. Results typically begin to appear within 3–5 days and reach full effect around 14-21 days. The effects last approximately 3–4 months, depending on your individual response.
After Treatment
Any touch ups needed are not done until after 14-21 days. Following a person’s first botulinum treatment, we will arrange, if necessary, a two-week follow up appointment to check that the result is optimal. In some cases, when someone is having their first treatment, we may intentionally slightly under treat and then top up at the follow up appointment. This is done to avoid over treating (mostly forehead and crow’s feet) as everyone responds slightly differently, and it is easy to add but cannot be “taken away”. Once the correct dose is established, it is recorded and used for subsequent treatments. Follow-up is at the client’s discretion for clients having repeat treatments.
