Anti-wrinkle Injections
An effective way of treating a range of skin concerns.
What to expect
Anti-wrinkle injections work by using botulinum toxin to temporarily relax facial muscles, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, with results lasting several months.
We evaluate the areas to be treated and discuss your desired goals.
Using a fine needle, the botulinum toxin is injected into the targeted muscles. The process is quick and typically takes about 10-15 minutes.
Most people experience only minor discomfort during the injection, similar to a pinprick.
The benefits

Everything you need to know…
-
When we make facial expressions like smiling, laughing, frowning, or raising our eyebrows, our facial muscles tighten. Over time, this can lead to lines and wrinkles on the skin.
-
Dynamic Wrinkles are lines that appear on facial movement e.g. when frowning and raising eyebrows – they are not visible when your face is at rest. By injecting specific facial muscles with Botulinum Toxin (muscle relaxant) movement is temporarily reduced. This in turn prevents the formation of lines/wrinkles and subsequently static lines.
Static Wrinkles are lines that are visible when your face is at rest. These lines are deeply engrained. It is important to recognise that these lines will not disappear – they will soften and treatment will help to prevent them from becoming more prominent. Botulinum Toxin is a muscle relaxant and therefore does not fill out static lines/wrinkles.
* Please note that some static lines may require alternative treatment options such as Dermal Fillers/
-
The best treatment for fine lines and wrinkles is Muscle Relaxing Injections, also known as an Anti-wrinkle Injections – the UK’s most popular cosmetic procedure. At Ivy Elizabeth Aesthetics we primarily use Botox® and Azzalure.
Low doses of the neurotoxin Botulinum Toxin Type A are administered via a series of small injections directly into specific facial muscles. This temporarily relaxes the muscle and reduces its movement which prevents dynamic lines appearing. This creates a softer facial expression, reversing signs of ageing. The overlying skin is left smooth and unable to create lines as muscular activity is reduced.
-
Chemical messages are sent between the nerves and muscles causing facial muscles to contract. Repeat contractions cause lines and wrinkles to become engrained. Treatment will block the signals between the nerves and muscles, causing the muscle to temporarily relax and stay at its resting state. On average recovery of these ‘messengers’ takes approximately 12 weeks.
-
We take all necessary precautions to ensure the treatment is as pain free as possible – the needle used is extremely fine and we offer FREE local anaesthetic cream (available on request) although most clients report injections cause very little discomfort and can be well tolerated with no anaesthetic.
-
The effects are gradual. Improvements are often noticeable within 2-3 days and by 2 weeks the full effects of the treatment are visible.
-
The procedure will take up to 30 minutes. A complimentary follow up appointment is offered 14-21 days after the initial treatment to review and tweak the final result if needed.
On average results last up to 12 weeks and are dependent upon individual characteristics. We recommend that you visit us 3-4 times per year to ensure we maintain your desired results.
