Facial lines and wrinkles are caused by muscle contraction every time you express yourself by smiling, frowning or pulling faces. The more expressive you are, the deeper these wrinkles are likely to be.
These injections are muscle-relaxing treatments for the face, jawline, and neck. They work by temporarily relaxing targeted muscles beneath the skin, so when you frown, smile, or make expressions, the treated muscles remain softened while you still maintain natural facial movement. This helps to smooth and reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles.
They can also be used as a preventative treatment in areas where wrinkles are not yet deeply visible. This treatment is clinically proven to be safe, effective, and requires no downtime.
FACEMED is a specialist treatment centre in the heart of Essex. Lead Aesthetic Practitioner, Monica Berrange has over 15 years experience in non-surgical medical aesthetic injectable treatments.
Muscle relaxants reduces the activity of the facial muscles responsible for forming lines and wrinkles over time.
With precise injections, muscle relaxants can relax, refresh, and sculpt your face by raising or lowering the eyebrows, softening the jawline, and reducing neck bands. This treatment helps restore a youthful look and enhance your features.
The procedure involves a few injections in the target areas using acupuncture-like needles. It is quick, involves minimal discomfort, and requires no downtime.
The effects of the treatment typically last 3-4 months. Re-treating the area before the muscles regain their movement can prolong the results. Over time, the interval between treatments may lengthen.
Some patients may experience slight bruising at the injection site. During the consultation process, those who are not suitable for the treatment will be advised accordingly to avoid disappointment.
When considering muscle relaxant treatments, it’s important to prioritise your health and safety over cost. Be cautious of providers offering treatments at unusually low prices. Muscle relaxants are prescription-only medicines and should only be administered by qualified medical professionals. Verify the credentials of practitioners through the SAVE FACE website, which lists accredited practitioners recognised by the government.

Monica is extremely skilled at what she does, every procedure I have had has made me look natural, refreshed and more youthful. She is very professional and gives me confidence in her abilities. The clinic is absolutely spotless and run efficiently. I have been seeing her for several years and would highly recommend her services.
To say I’m pleased with the service is an understatement, outstanding patient care and a first class service. Doctor George and Team are by far the best dental team I’ve experienced. The FACEMED facility is of the highest standard and I highly recommend that anyone looking for any dental treatment to look no further than here.
Monica is truly amazing. The results are phenomenal and very natural. Monica spends time assessing your particular facial structure and physiology and treats accordingly, always being careful to produce the best results – she provides a bespoke service and her years of experience are priceless – I travel an hour to go to her! Would highly recommend and will never go anywhere else!
I hadn’t been to the dentist for year as i’ve always been too scared!! I plucked up the courage after Dr Ketan Sheth treated my 9 and 11 year old children and they were fine. Can honestly say now I don’t know why I didn’t go sooner. Dr Ketan Sheth is a fantastic dentist and all the staff and the surgery as a whole there is 5 star! Thank you for all your help and see you in 6 months.
I have been using FACEMED for a number of years now for natural, painless Botox injections. A few years ago I decided to also have Blepharoplasty Eyelid Surgery. The clinic has its own operating theatre for the Consultant Plastic Surgeon to perform surgery, the results were perfect. FACEMED is immaculately clean, the staff are professional and helpful and Monica is an absolute expert in her field.
I love my experience when visiting FACEMED. Such a relaxing, professional atmosphere. Furthermore, I look forward to seeing the results of my treatments, of which I am never in doubt. I totally recommend FACEMED for truly excellent results.
All treatments are paid in full at point of delivery.
