Anti-Wrinkle Injections (Botulinum Toxin)

Botulinum toxin injections that soften the dynamic lines created by repeated facial expression — frown lines between the brows, horizontal forehead lines and crow's feet at the outer eyes. At MJAesthetic the treatment is performed by a physician after assessing how your face moves, so expression is relaxed rather than frozen. The price is set individually according to how many areas are treated and the dose required, and the doctor reviews your goals and suitability before starting.

Anti-wrinkle injections use tiny, carefully placed doses of botulinum toxin to temporarily ease the pull of specific facial muscles. When those muscles contract less strongly, the skin above them creases less, and existing dynamic lines tend to soften over the days that follow. At MJAesthetic the appointment begins with a physician assessing your facial movement and agreeing which areas to address — most often the glabella between the brows, the forehead and the crow's-feet area beside the eyes. The injections themselves take only a few minutes through a very fine needle, and most people return to their day straight afterwards while avoiding heat, lying flat and strenuous exercise for the rest of the day. Effects generally begin to appear within a few days and settle over about two weeks, with movement gradually returning over the following months. Because the practice doses each treatment individually — a full-face approach typically uses in the region of sixty-plus units — the cost reflects how many areas you choose and the product needed rather than a fixed package. The treatment may suit adults wanting a refreshed, still-expressive appearance; it is not given during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and the doctor discusses your medical history, expectations and any reasons to avoid it before proceeding.
