Anti Wrinkle Treatment
Lines are caused by lifestyle, age, sun exposure, smoking, and
to a certain degree – heredity. As we age, the levels of hyaluronic
acid falls – this is a substance found naturally in the skins which
helps with retention of water and overall hydration of the skin. As
sebaceous glands become less active, the skin becomes drier. The
skin also loses subcutaneous fat so it looks less plump and smooth
than when we were young. This combination of factors means that the
skin is depleted of all it needs to maintain the youthful glow and
elasticity – leading to facial lines (wrinkles) and furrowed brows,
which most men and women want to eliminate or improve. There are a
number of options available on the market, which help to minimise
facial lines.
Treatments
Our treatment is the most popular cosmetic treatment in the
world, and is highly effective and safe for use as an anti-ageing
treatment. Very few people are unsuitable for this treatment but
you would need to have a consultation with an experienced trained,
practitioner – either a doctor or nurse. It is strongly recommended
that it is given in a safe, clinical environment – despite the low
risks.
It works by temporarily blocking nerve impulses which then relax
the facial muscles. A series of small injections are administered
to a specific area and helps to smoothe out and prevent further
development of creases and wrinkles which are formed by common
facial expressions such as smiling, laughing, squinting in sunlight
and frowning.
