Wrinkle relaxation treatment in Oxford
Lines and wrinkles are a natural part of the ageing process, caused by the regular contraction of facial muscles below the surface of the skin.
At Fisher Clinics I take pride in providing safe and effective options for reducing or eliminating these fine lines and wrinkles.
After a comprehensive medical consultation, you may be able to undergo wrinkle-relaxation treatment in order to achieve a younger, rejuvenated and natural appearance.
You can be confident that you are being treated by an experienced medical doctor.
You may also wish to combine the treatment alongside dermal filler, in to create a balanced, hydrated, rejuvenation of other facial areas, such as the lips, cheeks, and nose-to-mouth lines.
What is the treatment?
The drug used for wrinkle relaxation treatments is a prescription only medication that has been used medically since 1978. Within UK law the name of prescribed drugs are not allowed to be advertised, although it is a household name.
As a prescription only drug, it can only be issued to a medically trained professional such as a doctor, and administration is generally considered extremely safe when done by a trained specialist.
When injected, the product works to temporarily relax the facial muscles responsible for causing lines and wrinkles. As the muscles relax, the overlying skin which has been creased tight into fine folds, also relaxes and lines and wrinkles smooth away.
What is the treatment experience?
The prescribed wrinkle-relaxing drug will be administed via a very fine needle just under the surface of the skin. For context the needle is 0.3mm wide, this is about three times smaller than a green needle used to take blood from the arm.
The volume of product needed per treatment is very small, about 0.1mls per injection site. This will usually leave a tiny bleb under the skin that disappears over several minutes.
Depending on how many areas you are having treated, the procedure will take around 10-20 minutes of actual injecting, spread between 5-25 treatment points.
Treatment areas
The most common areas that are requested for treatment are frown lines, forehead lines and crow’s feet (lines around the eyes). Its most common that all 3 areas are treated together.
Crow’s feet lines appear when we smile or laugh.
Frown lines (glabella) appear when the muscles pull our eyebrows together and down during concentration or frustration.
Forehead lines appear when we raise our eyebrows when talking or in suprise.
The forehead is the only area that can’t be treated in isolation - to maintain symmetry the frown lines are usually treated at the same time.
