Frequently Asked Questions About Anti-Wrinkle Injections

What are anti-wrinkle injections?

Anti-wrinkle injections are a cosmetic treatment that use a special compound to temporarily relax the muscles responsible for wrinkles and fine lines, resulting in smoother skin.

How do anti-wrinkle injections work?

These injections work by blocking signals from nerves to muscles, preventing muscle contractions. This reduces the appearance of wrinkles caused by muscle movement.

How long do the results last?

The effects typically last around three to four months. Regular maintenance treatments are required to sustain the results.

Are there any side effects?

Common side effects include temporary bruising, swelling, or mild discomfort at the injection site. Serious complications are rare but can include drooping eyelids or eyebrows when injected improperly (rare).

What areas can be treated with anti-wrinkle injections?

Common treatment areas include forehead lines, frown lines (between the eyebrows), and crow's feet (around the eyes). They can also be used for other facial areas and medical conditions, such as migraines, muscle slimming and hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating).

Is the procedure painful?

Most patients describe the injections as relatively painless, similar to plucking eyebrow hair. The procedure is quick, and if requested we can use a topical numbing cream to minimise discomfort.

Can I combine anti-wrinkle injections with other cosmetic treatments?

Yes, many people combine anti-wrinkle injections with dermal fillers or other cosmetic procedures for a more comprehensive facial rejuvenation. We offer packages for a more affordable treatment.

Who is a suitable candidate for anti-wrinkle injections?

Individuals who have moderate-severe wrinkles or lines caused by muscle contractions and are in good overall health are typically good candidates. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should avoid these treatments.

How soon will I see results after getting anti-wrinkle injections

You may start to notice improvements within a few days, but it can take up to two weeks for the full effects to become apparent.

More About Anti-Wrinkle Injections

Anti-wrinkle injections are a non-surgical way to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by relaxing the muscles that contract the overlying skin. 

Anti-wrinkle injections can be used as a preventative treatment to prevent the formation of permanent lines as we age. Anti-wrinkle injections work by interfering with the signals that cause muscle contraction, therefore reducing the formation of lines. 

As our skin ages, it becomes drier, thinner and less elastic. This is due to a number of factors, such as the loss of collagen and elastin in the skin, repeated movement of facial muscles, and loss of fat volume of the face. Eventually these combined factors lead to static, or permanent lines, where wrinkles are visible even when the facial muscles are relaxed. Dynamic lines are those that occur with movement of facial muscles, and when the face is relaxed they are no longer visible. Dynamic lines can be treated with anti-wrinkle injections to effectively diminish the formation of permanent lines. 

Anti-wrinkle injections can also be used to treat excessive sweating of the hands and under-arms, and to slim the masseter and trapezius muscles. 

The longevity of anti-wrinkle injections varies from person to person, however generally speaking they last anywhere between 3 and 5 months. A person who has a faster metabolism, exercises a lot, or regularly smokes will find that the effect of the injections will wear off closer to 3 months. Anti-wrinkle injections start from $99.

Aftercare 

  1. Avoid Touching the Treated Area: Refrain from rubbing or massaging the treated area for at least 24 hours after the injections. This can help prevent the spread to nearby muscles.
  2. Avoid Strenuous Exercise: It’s advisable to avoid vigorous physical activity for the remainder of the day after the treatment. Exercise can increase blood flow and potentially disperse the medication.
  3. Avoid Heat and Sun Exposure: Steer clear of hot baths, saunas, and prolonged sun exposure for the first day after treatment, as heat can increase the risk of swelling and bruising.
  4. Stay upright for at least 4 hours after treatment.
  5. No makeup on treated area for 24 hours.

Anti-wrinkle injections are a non-surgical way to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by relaxing the muscles that contract the above skin. Anti-wrinkle injections can be used as a preventative treatment to prevent the formation of permanent lines as we age. Anti-wrinkle injections work by interfering with the signals that cause muscle contraction, therefore reducing the formation of lines. In people who have anti-wrinkle injections prior to the formation of permanent lines, there is a noticeable decrease in the amount and depth of permanent wrinkles that form as they age. Anti-wrinkle injections are commonly used in conjunction with dermal fillers to achieve a younger and fresher look. As our skin ages, it becomes drier, thinner and less elastic. This is due to a number of factors, such as the loss of collagen and elastin in the skin, repeated movement of facial muscles, and loss of fat volume of the face. Eventually these combined factors lead to static, or permanent lines, where wrinkles are visible even when the facial muscles are relaxed.

Dynamic lines can be treated with anti-wrinkle injections to effectively diminish the formation of permanent lines. Anti-wrinkle injections are a non-surgical procedure that temporarily reduces movement of the target muscles, therefore, inhibits the creation of lines in the area when the face moves. Anti-wrinkle injections can also be used to treat excessive sweating of the hands and under-arms, and to slim the calf and trapezius muscles. The anti-wrinkle products that are used at Dermaq Aesthetics are made from a purified protein that inhibits messages from the nervous system that tell our muscles to contract. Starting anti-wrinkle injections early, before permanent lines begin to appear, is proven to decrease the severity of lines and wrinkles as we age.
