What is Botox or anti-wrinkle injections?

Botox treatment or anti-wrinkle injections are one of the most popular skin treatments in the UK. They do what skin creams and serums alone cannot do. They target fine lines and wrinkles on your face to reduce them and give you smooth and young-looking skin.

This injectable treatment uses small doses of toxin to stop your facial muscles from working for a small amount of time. By doing this, the lines that appear when you laugh or frown fade during this period.

Botox treatments do not just tackle facial lines and wrinkles, however. Botox can also help treat excessive sweating or hyperhidrosis, neck spasms, a lazy eye and can even help prevent migraines.

How do anti-wrinkle injections work?

You might have heard that Botox injections freeze your face and stop any movement. This is a myth that the media often spread about this treatment.

Anti-wrinkle injections work by using a small dose of Botulinum toxin, which is a naturally occurring protein. We inject this below the surface of the skin into specific facial muscles. The toxin blocks the chemical signals from the nerves (nerve signals) that cause the muscle to move and contract.

As a result, the injected facial muscles will relax and the lines and wrinkles that show when you smile or frown will also relax and stop showing. The facial muscles do not stop working forever. The toxin will wear off 2-3 months after your procedure. At this point, your muscles will go back to working normally and the lines and wrinkles will begin to show on your face.

You will have your Botox appointment with one of our trained doctors or aesthetic practitioners at our skin clinic near Ickenham.

Your first step is to have an initial consultation where we can get to know more about you and assess your skin concerns. It is also your opportunity to find out more about Botox and how it can help you achieve a more youthful appearance.

Are anti-wrinkle injections the same as dermal fillers?

The short answer to this is no, they are not the same. While they can both target lines and wrinkles, they each serve different purposes and help our patients achieve different results to match their needs.

Anti-wrinkle injections target the facial muscles to relax and stop them from working for a short period. This reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This treatment works well on forehead lines, crow’s feet and bunny lines.

Dermal fillers, on the other hand, are an injectable treatment that uses a gel-like substance to add volume and plump the skin. They can add contour and shape to the cheeks, chin, nose and jawline. Another popular dermal filler treatment is lip fillers.

We use dermal fillers to tackle multiple signs of ageing including sagging skin, a loss of facial volume and deep-set lines and wrinkles.

It is possible to combine anti-wrinkle treatments with dermal fillers. However, you may not be able to have both in one appointment. Our experts may suggest having anti-wrinkle treatment first and then coming back a few weeks later to have dermal fillers. This will enable both treatments to provide great results.

How long does it take for anti-wrinkle injections to work?

With anti-wrinkle treatment, you will need to wait 1-2 weeks for the toxin to settle into the muscle and relax it. From the second week, you will see that your skin looks more smooth and that your facial wrinkles have faded.

The results of your treatment should last for 2-3 months. This is when the effects of the Botox will start to wear off and your lines will start to appear again when you use your facial muscles.

For some people, the results can last longer. This depends on how your body reacts to the Botox and how quickly it breaks it down.

We suggest booking your next treatment at around the 3-4 month mark. This will ensure that you continue to see wrinkle-free skin for longer.
