What is Anti-Wrinkle Treatment
Anti-wrinkle treatments aim to reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles for a rejuvenated appearance. These treatments target areas like forehead lines, crow’s feet, and frown lines to improve skin texture and facial aesthetics.

Conditions that can be treated with anti-wrinkle injections include:
- Crow’s feet around the eyes
- Forehead lines
- Frown lines between the eyebrows
- Bunny lines on the nose
- Lip lines, also known as smoker’s lines
- Chin dimpling
- Marionette lines (mouth to chin)

FAQs
What treatment is best for deep wrinkles?
For deep wrinkles, a combination of anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers may be recommended. Dermal fillers can add volume and stimulate collagen production, while anti-wrinkle injections relax the underlying muscles to smooth out the skin.
How do anti-wrinkle injections work?
Anti-wrinkle injections work by temporarily blocking nerve signals to the facial muscles, reducing muscle activity that leads to wrinkles. This helps in softening existing lines and preventing new ones, supporting the skin’s natural collagen and elastin production, crucial for maintaining skin elasticity and youthfulness.
Can I combine anti-wrinkle injections with other treatments?
Yes, anti-wrinkle injections can be effectively combined with other skin treatments to address various ageing skin concerns. Dermal filler treatments can restore lost volume and enhance facial contours, while laser skin resurfacing can improve skin texture, for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
How long do anti-ageing injectables last?
The effects of anti-wrinkle toxin injections can last from 3 to 6 months, depending on your response to the treatment, the area treated, and the type of product used. Regular sessions are recommended to maintain results.
