Treatment for anti-wrinkle injections takes about 5 to 10 minutes to administer and fillers take up to 30 minutes. However, the full consultation you will have before these treatments takes 30 to 60 minutes as it is very thorough.
Are there any side effects?
Occasionally with anti-wrinkle injections, some people may have a slight headache for a few hours after. There can be minor bruises at the injection site. Rarely a drooping of the eyelid can be seen. This will wear off. With fillers, there can be slight bruising and swelling at the treatment site. Any possible side effects will be discussed fully with you at your consultation.
Are Anti-Wrinkle treatments safe?
Anti-wrinkle injections are a very safe treatment. There are hundreds of clinical studies that show it is perfectly safe if it is used in the recommended amounts by a qualified cosmetic doctor/nurse because it is a prescription drug. In 2006 the UK government approved it for cosmetic use.
Why get Dermal Filllers?
When you look in the mirror and see your first facial wrinkles you are recognizing the first visible signs of the ageing process. Facial Wrinkles and creases begin to appear as the underlying collagen and elastin figures begin to break down and wear out after the age of 25. While this breakdown is part of the natural ageing process, it can also result from excessive squinting, frowning, smoking or sun damage.
How long do the treatments last?
The first couple of times you have anti-wrinkle treatments it usually lasts for 3 to 4 months. After that they usually only require re-treatment a couple of times a year. The fillers last from 6 to 12 months, often longer. This depends on the product used, the area treated and the individual patient.
How do injections work?
The prescription agent used, was discovered by accident over 20 years ago. It was used medically to treat facial tics around the eye area and a noticeable side effect was that wrinkles improved and is now used to treat expression lines predominantly in the forehead and around the eyes. The treatment temporarily weakens the muscles that cause the skin to wrinkle creating a smooth, more youthful appearance. It lasts up to four months and the muscles regain enough strength to start working again.
What are Anti-Wrinkle Injections?
Anti wrinkle injections are one of the best known and popular non-surgical treatments for treating lines and wrinkles caused by smiling, laughing and frowning. It is used to prevent the muscle contractions that cause furrows and fine lines when the face is making expressions. The treatment is safe and virtually painless and results are visible within three to seven days, lasting for three to four months.

It was fabulous to be able to see Lucy again. Fantastic, professional service as usual. The treatment really gave me a boost. I'm feeling fresh and ready for socialising again.
I wanted to try a treatment on my face that was needle free so Lucy suggested the dual injector pro which just rejuvenates your skin through RF technology. Lucy was really professional and explained how it worked and even after one session I could see the difference. I won't hesitate to book more with Lucy. Thanks so much!

I would highly recommend this business. I felt confident and relaxed during my treatment, which was both personal and professional. Very pleased with the results, will be visiting again soon.
I was very nervous to begin with but Lucy reassured me and listened to my concerns. She is a lovely lady and I'm so pleased I chose her company! She contacted me after my first treatment to ask if all was ok and came back to top me up in a couple of places and the result has been fantastic!! Really pleased. I totally recommend her 😊 and will continue to do so.
