Your Guide to Anti-Wrinkle Injections

What to Expect During an Anti-Wrinkle Appointment

At Biba Cosmetics, our anti-wrinkle treatment process begins with an initial consultation with our in-clinic doctor. They will be part of your personalised consultation with your cosmetic nurse, during which your individual recommended dosage will be discussed.

Once we have created your personalised treatment plan and identified your areas of concern, your appointment will be relatively quick. During this appointment, one of our talented cosmetic nurses will use a small needle to inject the agreed amount of product into your areas of concern.

Anti-Wrinkle Treatments and Facial Slimming

Anti-wrinkle injections can also help slim your face by targeting the masseter muscle. This muscle, found on the side of your jaw, can become more noticeable if you are prone to clenching your teeth.

When you grind or clench your teeth often, the masseter muscle can grow bigger. Injecting anti-wrinkle treatment into this muscle can reduce its size without affecting how it works. This helps make your lower face look slimmer and can also reduce your teeth grinding and clenching.

Benefits of Anti-Wrinkle Treatments

Anti-wrinkle injections offer a non-surgical method for reducing the signs of ageing with various advantages:

• Smooth Wrinkles: By targeting areas like the forehead and around the eyes, these injections reduce the appearance of fine lines, enhancing the overall texture and look of your skin.
• Prevents New Wrinkles: The injections work by relaxing facial muscles, which helps prevent the formation of new wrinkles, preserving a youthful appearance.
• Tailored to Your Needs: Treatments are customised based on your facial features to achieve natural-looking results that complement your appearance.
• Quick and Easy: The procedure is fast and doesn’t require recovery time, fitting conveniently into your routine.
• Boosts Confidence: Achieving a refreshed and youthful look can enhance your self-esteem and overall satisfaction with your appearance.
• Medical Benefits: In addition to cosmetic effects, these injections can also address conditions like excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) and teeth grinding (bruxism), improving daily comfort.
• Adjustable Treatment: Results typically last several months, allowing you to modify future treatments according to your changing needs and preferences.

Considering Anti-Wrinkle Treatments?

Some key considerations before getting anti-wrinkle treatments include:

• Are you pregnant? Anti-wrinkle injections are not suitable if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Disclose any current medical conditions during your consultation to ensure you are not contraindicated for treatment.
• You must be over the age of 18 to get this procedure.
• Side Effects: As with many treatments, there are potential side effects. You may experience temporary swelling, bruising, redness, mild pain, mild headache, or mild discomfort.
  Whether you’re looking to enhance your youthful look or seek relief from issues like excessive sweating or teeth grinding, anti-wrinkle injections provide a convenient, non-surgical option. It’s essential to consider your overall health and any potential contraindications before undergoing treatment.
