Anti-wrinkle injections, commonly using botulinum toxin type A, are a non-surgical treatment designed to temporarily relax specific facial muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles. By preventing muscle contraction, these injections smooth out expression lines and help prevent the formation of deeper wrinkles over time.
Reduce the appearance of forehead lines, frown lines (glabellar lines), and crow’s feet
Soften expression lines for a refreshed, relaxed look
Prevent the deepening of dynamic wrinkles
Treat gummy smile, chin dimpling, or neck bands (in some cases)
Have a known allergy to botulinum toxin or any ingredients in the product
Have neuromuscular disorders (e.g., myasthenia gravis, Lambert-Eaton syndrome)
Have active infection or inflammation at the injection site
There is no significant downtime. You may experience slight redness, swelling, or small bumps at the injection sites, which usually resolve within a few hours.
The procedure involves minimal discomfort. The injections are quick and done with a fine needle.
Initial effects become noticeable within 2 to 5 days, with full results visible at around 10 to 14 days post-treatment.
Typically, 1 session achieves the desired result. To maintain a smooth, youthful appearance, repeat treatments are recommended every 3 to 6 months, depending on individual response and aesthetic goals.
