Anti-Wrinkle Treatments
Anti-wrinkle treatments use botulinum toxin injections (Botox® / Azzalure® / Dysport® / Bocouture®) to temporarily relax targeted facial muscles that cause wrinkles and expression lines.
With repeated, timely treatments, it is well-established in smoothening existing lines and preventing new ones from forming, helping you maintain a refreshed and youthful appearance.
In addition to its cosmetic uses, botulinum toxin can also be used for a variety of applications, including jawline slimming, lower-face lifting, and the management of medical conditions such as excessive sweating, teeth grinding (bruxism) and muscular pain.

Protects Skin Structure
Skin folding, caused by repetitive muscle action, breaks down collagen and elastin. By reducing movement, Botox® helps preserve collagen, keeping skin smoother for longer.

Anti-Wrinkle - FAQs
Are Anti-Wrinkle treatments safe?
Botolinum toxin has a strong safety profile and has been widely used in the cosmetic industry for over 20 years. Treatment should only be administered by a qualified medical professional in a sterile environment.
How long does it take for results to take effect?
Botox® works gradually over a 2-week period:
Initial effects [2-3 days]: you may notice subtle relaxation of the treated muscles.
Optimum effects [10-14 days]: maximum smoothing effect becomes visible.
- Follow-up appointment: A complimentary review may be necessary to tweak any areas that require adjusting. This will usually take place 2-4 weeks from the initial appointment.
How long do the effects last?
3-6 months. The effects of Botox® wears off gradually and the longevity varies based on metabolism, muscle strength, and dosage. For optimum results, 3-4 treatments a year are recommended, with results improving over time with consistent treatments.
Will my results look natural?
Yes, when administered by experienced practitioners. Natural-looking results focus on subtle smoothing rather than a “frozen” appearance.
Downtime and aftercare
For the initial 24hrs, the following aftercare is advised to prevent any side-effects and unwanted spread into neighbouring muscles:
- Stay upright for at least 4 hours.
- No rubbing or massaging the injected areas.
- Avoid strenuous exercise and alcohol.
