Wrinkle-relaxing injections

What it is

Wrinkle-relaxing injections gently reduce the movement of the small muscles that crease the skin of the upper face. Treating one, two or three areas softens frown lines, forehead lines and crow's feet while keeping natural expression. Because these are prescription-only medicines, treatment always follows a face-to-face consultation and assessment with our nurse prescriber, and the medicine itself cannot be named or advertised online.

• A prescription-only injectable treatment that temporarily softens the movement of specific upper-face muscles.
• Commonly used across the forehead, between the brows and around the eyes to smooth expression lines while keeping a natural look.
• Treatment is always preceded by a face-to-face medical consultation with our nurse prescriber.

What it treats / who it's for

• Adults over 18 with dynamic lines on the upper face
• First-time patients who want a subtle, conservative result
• Patients maintaining an existing result every 3–4 months

How it works

• A tiny amount of product is placed into the muscles that create dynamic wrinkles.
• The muscle activity is reduced just enough to stop the skin from creasing, without freezing expression.
• Results develop gradually over 3–14 days and are reviewed at a two-week follow-up appointment.
