Anti-wrinkle treatments
The Nefertiti lift
The Nefertiti lifts a technique which involves placing a number of anti-wrinkle injections along the lower jaw line and the sides of the neck in order to relax the muscles that pull down the jawline and accentuate the jowls. This results in a more defined and uplifted jawline.
Jawline slimming
Anti-wrinkle injections are placed into the chewing muscle of the jaw (also known as the masseter) in order to reduce its size and soften a square masculine look. This technique is also used for treating bruxism (teeth grinding).
Chemical brow lift
This treatment is ideal for women with hooded eyelids and heavy eyebrows. A tiny injection of anti-wrinkle is given just below the tail of the eyebrow in order to lift it up and give it a feminine arch while opening up the eye.
Bunny lines
This treatment aims to soften the wrinkles on either side of the nose which appear when laughing, sneezing or squinting. A small amount of anti-wrinkle is injected into either side of the nose.
Gummy smile
Gummy smile is when the upper lip raises too much and exposes the gums when smiling. This can be corrected by injecting a small amount of anti-wrinkle on either side at the base of the nose in order to relax the muscle which is responsible for the excessive uplift of the upper lip.
Smoker's lines
Smoker’s lines are fine line and wrinkles that appear around the lips from repetitive movement. They can be softened by placing a small number of injections into the muscle which surrounds the lips like a ring and is in action when we pucker up our lips.
Downturned corners of the mouth
A small injection into the muscle that pulls the corners of the mouth downwards , can help lift them up and eliminate the look of sadness and tiredness.
Pebbled/dimpled chin
Pebbled chin is corrected with two small injections to relax the muscle that dimples the chin.
Forehead wrinkles
Forehead lines can be eliminated by placing tiny injections into the frontal muscle which is the muscle that pulls the eyebrows up and wrinkles the forehead.
Frown lines
The area between the eyebrows is commonly known as the glabella. Vertical lines in the glabella are caused by the action of a group of muscles which bring the eyebrows down and in when frowning. Treating those muscles with anti-wrinkle injections, can help smoothen the vertical lines in the glabella and prevent them from becoming deeper if already established. This treatment can also help to lift the eyebrows up slightly by allowing the elevator muscle (frontalis) to take effect.
Crow's feet
The wrinkles around the side of the eyes are known as crow’s feet due to their distinctive appearance. They can be treated by placing small superficial injections into the muscle which screws the eyes shuts and causes the wrinkling to appear on the sides.
Excessive sweating
Anti-wrinkle injections can be used to treat excessive sweating of the underarms. Small doses are injected into the skin which then block the nerve signal to the sweat glands and prevent them from producing sweat.
