How does this treatment work?
Once injected into a specific muscle, the treatment works by preventing the muscle from contracting. This in turn stops the formation of the dynamic wrinkle. Once treated, the patient will still be able to frown and smile, but the skin will look fresher and less wrinkled.
From 2 to 3 days after treatment you will start to notice the treatment working, but it will take up to two weeks to reach it’s full effect. You will then come back for a two week review at no additional cost.
Prior to treatment, your needs and expectations will be discussed so that you will feel comfortable and will attain exactly what you are looking for. Whether that’s just to banish some wrinkles around the eyes, treat frown lines, achieve a brow lift, or just to look more refreshed as not as tired looking, we will meet those required needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who can have Botox
Botox Treatment can be used for treating wrinkles in men and women, however men often need slightly higher doses than women.
Who should not have Botox?
- Women who are pregnant or breast feeding.
- People with muscle problems or chronic diseases affecting the muscles, such as Myasthenia Gravis, Eaton Lambert syndrome.
- People with infection at the proposed injection site.
- People who have previously had an allergic reaction to Botulinum toxin type A injections.
- Children under the age of 18 year.
Is iHow many Botox treatment sessions will I need?
Botox treatment takes a few days to start working but can take as long as 10-14 days for the full paralysing effects to show through. The treatment is not permanent, so we recommend repeat treatments at 3-6 monthly intervals to maintain the effects once the treatment is starting to wear off. As sun-damage is one of the main culprits in encouraging wrinkle formation we always suggest that our clients should use a daily SPF of 30+.
Over time, people who have regular Botox treatments can notice the muscles getting thinner and weaker, which means they are less able to create the wrinkles in the first place. You may notice that the Botox works more effectively and lasts longer with each subsequent treatment.
Are there side effects of Botox?
The needles used for Botox injections are very fine and approximately the same diameter as coarse human hair. The discomfort associated with this treatment is mild and no local anaesthetic is required.
You will be able to carry out all of your usual daily activities immediately after your injections, including driving. Patients with more delicate skin often have some redness at the injection sites immediately after treatment but this will subside over the next hour or so. You may also develop slight bruising at the injection sites, however, this is normally very mild and easily covered by light make-up. Otherwise there will be no visible signs of your skincare treatment.
In rare cases, the botox can migrate to nearby muscles, causing some weakness, such as drooping of the upper eyelid. This is a temporary side effect, lasting for a few weeks at most. If you suffer any side-effects we request you contact the clinic immediately so we can offer you advice.
