Say goodbye to wrinkles
Anti-wrinkle injections, also known as Botox are made from a purified protein. When injected into specific muscles, this protein temporarily causes them to relax, instantly softening lines and wrinkles.
What is Botox?
Anti-wrinkle injections are quick, affordable and effective. They can be used to erase frown lines, smile lines around the eyes, lines around the jaw and forehead as well as to lift the chin, soften the jawline and lift or drop eyebrows. More and more, people are also using Botox to tackle excessive sweating.
The injections work by stopping the signal between the nerve and the targeted muscle, preventing that muscle from contracting and forming a wrinkle. Our skilled cosmetic physicians use tiny needles to perform the treatment. Just a little bigger than an acupuncture needle, the sensation is similar to a pinprick and causes only momentary discomfort. Patients may notice faint red marks like mosquito bites which will settle in about half an hour.
Effects are noticeable within a couple of days and last for an average of two to three months. Top up treatments are recommended at three- to four-month intervals.
