Wrinkle relaxer injectable treatment involves the injection of a muscle relaxant into the targeted area, which blocks nerve signals and reduces muscular contraction. This results in a smooth, refreshed, and youthful appearance. The most treated areas include the forehead, glabella (frown lines between the eyebrows), and crow’s feet. 

We only ever use the original wrinkle relaxer produced by Global Medical Company Allergan and our highly trained Nurse is an expert, so you are in good hands throughout your treatment. 

How Wrinkle Relaxers works 

We use very shallow needles to inject tiny doses of muscle relaxers to temporarily reduce muscle movement in target areas- leaving skin smoother and preventing new lines from appearing. It’s as simple and straightforward as that. 

Preparing for your treatment 

If possible, avoid wearing make-up to your appointment. But if that’s not possible, don’t worry – we’ll remove it for you before we get started on the treatment. 

If you’re breastfeeding or pregnant, we unfortunately won’t be able to perform this treatment – but talk to our therapists, and they’ll help you arrange a later date when you can join us, and discuss other treatments available, based on what you want to achieve. 

Is it safe, and does it hurt? 

It is safe: the product has been FDA-approved since 2002, and in regular use since the 1960s. Side effects do occur occasionally-some people have mild bruising and less than 3% of people can experience a ‘droopy eyelid’. 

The treatment isn’t completely pain-free, and you’ll likely feel a pinching or stinging sensation with each injection- but if that sounds uncomfortable to you, we can apply numbing cream before we get started. 

I’m not sure – can I talk to someone first? 

Absolutely- our Nurse is available for a complementary consult to go through any questions you might have. 

The Results 

Little bumps may be present for 20 minutes or so. 

Results take a full 10-14 days to be fully seen at which point a scheduled review appointment allows us to tweak or top up results if necessary. 

A relaxed, natural and balanced appearance creating a smoother, more youthful appearance lasts around 3- 4 months.
