Cosmetic Aesthetic

It’s common knowledge that as we grow older we gain more lines or wrinkles
on our faces. These lines and wrinkles may then cause further skin
deterioration and various other aesthetic issues which give you an unwanted
aged appearance. This in turn can affect your self-esteem and in the way you
interact with people on a day to day basis.
​
For that reason, Anti Wrinkle treatments are one of the most popular cosmetic
treatments, with millions of treatments administered each year globally.
​
We recommend wrinkle prevention treatment as per the requirement of each
patient for the treatment of:

FAQs
​
What is anti-wrinkle / wrinkle prevention and what will it do?
Anti-wrinkle/wrinkle prevention works by blocking neurotransmitters in the
target muscles which reduces the strength of muscle contraction. Sometimes
the contraction of muscles causes the wrinkle of skin, and by injecting small
amounts of this material, the muscle contraction is relaxed and therefore
smooths out the skin.
​
How long should it take before I see results?
It takes between 24 – 72 hours for anti-wrinkle/wrinkle prevention treatments
to take effect. At times, it can take as long as 14 days for the full effect to be
observed.
​
Is the treatment safe?
We only use sterile and single use equipment throughout the procedure.
