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.
Botulinum Toxin Type A injections are muscle relaxant treatments for your face, jawline and neck. The injections temporarily relax specific muscles under the skin so that when you frown, smile or pull faces, the treated muscles stay relaxed and you preserve facial movement whilst lines and wrinkles are softened.
Botulinum Toxin Type A is also used as a preventative treatment on areas where wrinkles may not be too visible yet. It is clinically proven that Botulinum Toxin Type A treatment is safe, effective and requires no down time.
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.
Botulinum Toxin Type A (also known as BOTOX®) is a purified protein that reduces the activity of the facial muscles responsible for forming lines and wrinkles over time.
With precise injections, Botulinum Toxin Type A 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. Botox® is a prescription-only medicine 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.
