How does Botox work?

As a result, the specific muscles treated will not move as much and certain wrinkles may be softened, reduced or even removed. .

By using Botox in your skin you can prevent the deeper crease developing or reduce an existing crease.”

What does Botox treat?

Botox works really well on wrinkles or fine lines caused by muscle movement in the face, commonly the upper face or arising the mouth. Botox will reduce or prevent movement lines (those that appear when you make an expression, such as frown). If you already have resting lines (this is a line that remains on your face when you are not making any expression) Botox will also soften these lines but it may take a few treatments if the lines are deep.

Hyperhidrosis

We also use Botox in-clinic to treat Hyperhidrosis; a common condition in which a person sweats excessively. This process involves the same product but used in a different way. The Botox is injected under the surface of the skin and works on the acetylcholine receptors. The Botox affects them in such a way that sweat will no longer be produced. This has had life-changing results on our clients who have had this treatment, as their symptoms were affecting their daily life and they now have freedom and relief. The best thing is that this treatment lasts 7-10 months if not longer!

Teeth grinding

The same relief can be provided using Botox for Teeth Grinding to relax the muscles and reduce pain. It also shapes the jawline if it has become square due to teeth grinding.

Migraines and headaches

Botox can also be used to relieve migraines and tension headaches. It can reduce the severity and frequency of migraines, sometimes getting rid of migraines altogether.”

What are Botox side effects?

The best thing about Botox is that it is very safe and is also temporary, making it a great first option for people considering non-surgical treatments. Even if you have a minor side effect it will always wear off. This is because nerve endings always repair and recover over time.

Some minor side effects could be bruising or swelling around the area, but this will subside after a few days. After the treatment, some people may feel a mild headache the evening of the treatment, especially if they have had a lot of injections, but again this will subside.

What to expect after a Botox treatment ?

One main difference between Botox and dermal filler is that Botox effects come on gradually and can take up to two weeks to full effect, whereas dermal fillers show instant results. However with Botox you may notice a difference within 3-4 days. After two weeks we will book you in for a treatment review, where you will have a chat with our experts so that they can find out if you are happy with the results and review the effects; some people need a top-up.
