Anti-Wrinkle Treatments

Lines and wrinkles develop over time because of muscle movement over time, collagen loss and facial fat volume loss in the face. Some lines in the face can also be related to the sleeping position, over time causing deepening creases on the face. A combination of facial movement, sleeping position, facial fat volume loss and the fat pads dropping in the face over time is responsible for concerns such as: forehead lines, crow’s feet, frown lines, nasolabial folds (nose to mouth lines) and marionette creases (mouth to chin lines); conditions which Takroni Clinic will often recommend for our anti-wrinkle treatment or other interventions such as dermal filler or skin quality treatments to enhance the results.

At Takroni Clinic we always carry out a thorough consultation in order to fully understand your goals and concerns and create a bespoke treatment plan unique to you. We will assess your face and skin in detail and will recommend treatments that will further enhance your results from anti-wrinkle treatments such as medical grade skincare, medical microneedling, Morpheus 8 and polynucleotides. During the consultation, we will explain the procedure in full, including any benefits, risks and expected outcomes so you feel fully informed about your treatments.

Our anti-wrinkle treatment is one of the most effective solutions for wrinkles that are caused by facial movement. It works best on lines that are present when we move but are not there when static. If lines are present when static, then we recommend a combination of treatments for best results. During your anti-wrinkle treatment, we administer an injection directly to the muscle in the affected area, where the product works to temporarily relax this muscle allowing the skin to appear smooth on the surface and enhancing the appearance of the face overall.

Although commonly used to address lines and wrinkles on the face, this treatment can address many other concerns, including teeth grinding, to slim a jaw line, migraines, neck bands, excessive sweating and upturning the corners of the mouth.

Taking care of the treated area following treatment will help to achieve a safe and optimal outcome with reduced downtime. Takroni Clinic advises that you avoid touching the area for a few hours and avoid using a sauna, steam rooms or facials for at least 1 week. You must avoid alcohol or exercise for 48 hours. No makeup to be used over the area treated until the next day to minimise the risk of infection but you can gently wash your face the same evening using a gentle cleanser. We recommend avoiding strong topical actives for 5 days, and we recommend you wear SPF30+ from the next morning. You should also avoid lying flat for around 4 hours and we recommend that you can move your face as normal following your treatment. Your detailed aftercare advice will be provided at your appointment.

By relaxing the muscle, it reduces its movement, and prevents the overlying skin from wrinkling. The surface of the skin will develop a smoother texture, and the absence of wrinkles will give the face a more youthful look. This treatment can be performed on more than one area or may be combined with other treatments (such as dermal fillers or skin tightening) for full facial rejuvenation. Repeating the procedure at 3-5 month intervals will mean you can enjoy long-lasting results.  We always recommend combining this treatment with medical-grade skincare and collagen-stimulating treatments such as medical microneedling, Morpheus 8 and polynucleotides for best results. Anti-wrinkle treatments work best for those who have lines on movement but that are not there on rest as it does not improve the actual quality of the skin. This is the reason we always recommend a combination of approaches to address lines and wrinkles to ensure you are maintaining your skin quality as well.

This treatment is suitable for those who are looking to improve the look of lines and wrinkles caused by repetitive muscle movement. It works well as part of a prevention programme to prevent the worsening of lines and wrinkles alongside medical-grade skincare, microneedling and Morpheus 8. Takroni Clinic often recommends anti-wrinkle treatments to those who are unhappy with the look of certain facial wrinkles, such as: crow’s feet, frown lines, forehead lines and smokers’ lines. It is also recommended to those with neck bands or those looking to slim the appearance of the jawline. It is not ideal for those with deep static lines and very significant signs of ageing. Your clinician will assess your suitability for treatment at your consultation and create your unique treatment plan explaining your expected outcomes.

We only use the highest quality products and the safest techniques with highly experienced clinicians, so you can rest assured you are in safe hands. All benefits and risks of treatments are thoroughly discussed at your consultation prior to treatment.

At Takroni clinic we use the finest possible needles for your treatment and a gentle approach. Our patients find anti-wrinkle injections very tolerable, and the procedure is very quick.

It is very normal to experience some bumps in the areas treated for around 15-30 minutes. You may also experience some redness, minor bruising, as well as risk of headache for 24 hours when treating the forehead. Other very rare risks include eyelid or eyebrow ptosis or resistance to treatment, although, these are very rare and our clinicians are all highly trained and experienced to help to minimise any risks.

Stephanie

Went in for treatment for my skin and hair and honestly couldn’t be more pleased. I can see I have less hair shedding and even more hair growth which I presumed was not possible. The clinic is also very clean and stylish with great customer service.

Benjamin

Dr Sarah is a wonderful, devoted, clinically excellent lady who always has the interests of her patients at heart. Her portfolio is self-evident. I have a critical eye, her work is among the best I have seen; some of the outcomes I would not have believed attainable without surgery.

Dr Jay

I have been a patient to the doctors here for years and trust them implicitly. Discreet, professional, 5 star service!
