Anti-Wrinkle Treatments in Melbourne

If you’re looking for a non-surgical, non-invasive skin rejuvenation treatment that requires little to no recovery time, anti-wrinkle injections can deliver the results you’re looking for.

Anti-wrinkle injections are a safe, effective and extremely popular wrinkle reduction treatment that can help take years off your face in just minutes.

Lines and wrinkles appear from using our facial muscles for expression, for examples to laugh, smile or frown. These are known as dynamic lines. Overtime with repeated movement the creases become permanent causing static lines.

Anti-wrinkle injections work by relaxing specific facial muscles to stop the constant creasing and folding of the skin which causes fine lines and wrinkles. Therefore, this cosmetic injection treatment primarily targets dynamic lines from forming. They contain muscle relaxants made from a natural, purified protein which is injected into the face using very fine needles. As the facial muscles are restricted the static lines also start to reduce and soften.

We use 2 main products which are both Botulinum toxin Typa-A but they are different size molecules therefore work slightly different. One is a Eureapen Product produced by Galderma and once is an American Product produced by Allergan. 

Once the Anti Wrinkles treatment is completed, you can start seeing effects after 2-3 days. The peak effect of Dysport and Botox is 14 days and therefore individuals should wait until this point to see the full results, we also book reviews at this point. • Both products last up to 3-4 months based on standard doses, but may last less if people are requesting smaller doses due to budget reasons.

Research shows that if you get retreated when you start getting some muscle movement back, you get more longevity out of the treatment as although the product only lasts 3-4 months, the muscles get used to not working therefore take longer to get the movement returning.

Pre-Treatment Care

Before your session, you will need a consultation to discuss your medical history and background so we can design a plan that meets your needs. 

We do not treat pregnant or breastfeeding clients. There are some medications that can interfere with the treatment so that will also be discussed in your initial consultation. 

Other cosmetic treatments such as laser and peels should be avoided 2 weeks prior to the procedure.
