Wrinkle relaxing is a highly popular and widely available non-surgical treatment used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and improve facial contours. This simple treatment can dramatically smooth and soften expression lines to give a youthful, rested and rejuvenated look.
Wrinkle relaxing involves the use of Botulinum toxin A, a neurotoxin that works by blocking the release of a chemical from your nerve endings, preventing muscles from contracting. The result is more relaxed facial muscles in the targeted areas which over time can soften lines and make skin appear fuller and more radiant.
Botulinum treatments are safe if administered properly by a trained healthcare professional.

Treatments last around 3-4 months before the effects wear off, however, each individual’s response to treatment varies slightly
1) Free initial consultation to discuss your concerns
2) A second appointment to administer the treatment
3) A review 2-3 weeks later to review how you’ve responded to treatment, especially for those of you who are new to wrinkle relaxing
Be patient - the treatment will take effect over 7-10 days and reach its full effect after 2-3 weeks.
Keep upright for a few hours afterwards.
Gently pat the skin dry with a soft towel after washing.
