What Causes Wrinkles?

As we age, it’s common to feel like our appearance doesn’t reflect how youthful we feel inside.

Anti-wrinkle treatment can be a great option to help bridge that gap. However, ageing isn’t the only contributing factor to wrinkle formation. Genetic predispositions and hormonal imbalances also play a role. Additionally, extrinsic factors that we can manage can significantly impact our skin’s appearance, such as:

  • Sun exposure
  • Pollution
  • Smoking
  • Poor diet
  • Lifestyle choices
  • Inadequate hydration

Anti-wrinkle treatments offer a solution to address these issues, helping you look as vibrant and youthful as you feel.

Top Tip: For best results, complement your treatment with daily SPF to protect your skin and wear a hat and sunglasses in bright sunlight. This will avoid activating the muscles that create frown lines and crow’s feets and help maintain a smooth and youthful look.

What Is Anti-Wrinkle Treatment?

Anti-wrinkle treatment is a purified protein that temporarily immobilises targeted facial muscles. This process smooths out wrinkles and fine lines, giving your face a more youthful appearance. Approved by the FDA and EU, anti-wrinkle treatments have been safely used for cosmetic purposes since the 1980s.

How Do Plymouth Anti-Wrinkle Treatments Work?

Plymouth anti-wrinkle treatment is a prescription-only medication suitable for individuals aged 18 and above. Here’s what you can expect during the the anti-wrinkle treatment process:

Free pre-consultation with Laura: you’ll discuss the areas you want to enhance, and she’ll provide honest and professional advice for natural-looking results. You will complete a health questionnaire, which will then be reviewed with Laura and have any medical questions answered. If you agree with our prices, medication will be ordered specifically for you, and your treatment will be scheduled within a convenient 2+ day timeframe.

Top Tip: If you have a special occasion or important meeting coming up, schedule your appointment at least 3-4 weeks in advance. This allows ample time for the treatment to take full effect and for any necessary follow-up adjustments.

During the process: we will take before photos, securely saved on our GDPR-compliant software. We recommend taking your ‘after’ treatment photos 10-14 days post treatment for progress tracking. Our experienced team will discuss potential side effects and answer any questions during your consultation to ensure you are fully informed and comfortable with your treatment plan.

After Anti-wrinkle injections: Anti-wrinkle treatment targets dynamic lines caused by expression, with muscle relaxation beginning three to five days post-treatment and full effects visible in 14 days. Results last four to six months, gradually decreasing after two to three months. Immediately after anti-wrinkle injections, you might experience localised swelling, bleeding, and bruising at the injection site.
To enhance the success of your treatment, we highly recommend following our pre-treatment and post-treatment advice.
