Botox®
Botox® is a procedure used at the discretion of our clinician
to improve the appearance of "worry lines", "frown
lines", "crow's feet", forehead wrinkles and other
so-called dynamic wrinkles.
To inactivate these wrinkles, botulinium toxin is injected into
local muscles in selected areas of the face, usually around the
forehead or eyes, using a very fine needle in a very precise manner.
After treatment, the overlying skin becomes smoother and unwrinkled
whilst untreated facial muscles contract normally, allowing normal
facial expression to be unaffected.
This treatment has been used on over 1 million patients worldwide
for more than 11 years.

Botox® injections can
also be used to compliment the filling of frown lines with Restylane.
The Treatment
Upon arrival for your appointment you will have a thorough consultation
with the medical practitioner who would perform your treatment.
This evaluation of your medical history will determine your suitability
for this treatment. If you are suitable for Botox use you can receive
the injections at the same appointment. You are under no obligation
to proceed that day.
The injections are precisely introduced to specific areas of the
face with a very fine needle. A local anaesthetic cream may be
applied to numb the area – in general the procedure causes
minimal discomfort.
After care – You will be advised to avoid excessive exercise
for 48 hours following injections. One may prefer not to take a
flight within 24 hours of injections. It is advisable to refrain
from lying down within the first 4 hours post injection.
How long will it last?
The treatment generally takes 5-8 days to work and lasts between
3-4 months. To maintain the effects follow up treatment will be
required
