Botox: Smoother Skin & Facial Slimming
Botox offers an effective solution for reducing the appearance of wrinkles and achieving a more refined facial contour. By injecting tiny amounts, Botox works to gently reduce the muscle activity that causes lines and wrinkles in your skin.
​
The benefits are twofold: you'll notice immediate results as existing wrinkles soften, and it also plays a crucial preventative role, helping to stop new lines and wrinkles from forming.​
​Our approach focuses on achieving a natural look. This means you'll still have your full range of expressions – no "frozen" appearance here! The goal is for you to simply look refreshed and younger, without it being obvious that you've had any treatment.

What to Expect During a Botox Treatment
Your treatment journey begins with a thorough discussion with our doctors about your concerns regarding facial expression lines. We'll then recommend a personalised treatment approach. We offer numbing cream to ensure your comfort and minimise any potential discomfort.
​
The Botox is injected using a very fine needle into the specific muscles responsible for your lines and wrinkles. The amount used is always personalised to your individual muscle strength and movement, ensuring optimal, natural results.
​​
What to Expect After Your Treatment
You'll start to notice the results appearing within a few days, with the full effect typically visible within 7 days. The smoothing effects of Botox generally last between 3 to 6 months, depending on the individual.
​​
Risks and Side Effects
While Botox is a safe procedure, side effects can occur, though they are rarely mild and temporary. The most common are temporary redness and minor bruising at the injection site.
​
Very rarely, issues like asymmetry of expression or temporary eyelid drooping can occur. These rare side effects are significantly minimised by choosing an experienced and trained injector like those at our clinic.
