How it works
How Botulinum Toxin Works
Whenever you smile, squint, or frown, underlying facial muscles contract, pulling the skin into dynamic folds. Over time, constant folding degrades collagen, causing temporary lines to become static wrinkles.
The Action Mechanism:
-
Targeted Signal Blockade: Micro-injections intercept chemical signals between nerve endings and targeted muscles.
-
Controlled Relaxation: The hyperactive muscle relaxes, reducing the force of skin folding while allowing surrounding un-treated muscles to move normally.
-
Skin Smoothing & Wrinkle Prevention: Existing lines soften significantly, and the skin gets a period of rest, preventing new creases from forming.
Areas Treated
Specific Treatment Areas & Area Packages
Muscle Tension
Settles overactive muscles behind persistent tightness, with the neck treated alongside the face.
Excessive Sweating
Reduces hyperhidrosis by quieting the signals that drive the sweat glands in the treated area.
Aesthetic Indications:
Forehead Lines
Softens the horizontal lines that deepen every time the brow lifts, while the brow still moves.
Frown Furrows
Smooths the vertical creases between the brows that squinting and concentration set into the skin.
Crow's Feet
Eases the fine lines fanning from the outer corners of the eyes, and holds new ones off.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions About Botox®
The injections themselves take 10 to 30 minutes, and the appointment 20 to 30 including the consultation and cleanse.
Ultra-fine needles deliver micro-doses directly into the muscle, so most clients describe a brief sting rather than pain.
Lines begin to soften over the first days as the treated muscle relaxes. Your complimentary review is booked 14 days later, once the result has settled, with a touch-up if it is needed.
Three to six months. The effect wears off gradually as the muscle regains its normal movement, which is why the treatment is repeated rather than reversed.
Yes. It is routinely paired with dermal filler, which restores volume rather than relaxing muscle — the two do different jobs. Your practitioner will sequence them at consultation.
Mild redness, small raised bumps or slight swelling at the injection points that settle within hours, and occasionally pinpoint bruising or a short-lived headache.
No — and it does not need to be. Unlike hyaluronic acid filler there is no dissolving agent; the effect simply wears off over three to six months as the muscle recovers.
Leave the treated areas alone for 24 hours. Do not rub, massage or press makeup into the injection sites, and skip tight headwear for the same period.
Stay upright for four hours — no lying down, bending over or resting on your face — and skip heavy exercise, saunas, hot tubs and steam rooms for 24 hours.
No. It is not given in pregnancy or while breastfeeding, to anyone with a neuromuscular disorder such as Myasthenia Gravis, or over an active skin infection or open wound at the injection site.
