Wrinkle Injection Treatments

As the elasticity of the skin diminishes over time, we develop fine lines and wrinkles, crow’s feet and expression lines. Sun exposure, smoking, alcohol and hereditary factors also contribute to skin ageing. Although this is generally accepted as an inevitable result of getting older, there are effective treatments and product regimes available that can prevent sun damage and slow down the skin ageing process. At The Devonshire Clinic, we offer a range of cosmetic dermatology treatments to help rejuvenate the skin and achieve a healthier and more youthful skin tone and texture.

Our wrinkle injection treatments

The injections we use for treating wrinkles that medically produces a specific and controllable muscle paralysis.

When injected into the facial muscles, it relaxes the muscles that pull on the skin and so reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The wrinkle injections are targeted at facial muscles that have no significant function, so that the appearance of your skin is improved without reducing your ability to move your face with normal facial expressions.

Where are the injections used?

Our wrinkle treatments can be used to smooth several problem areas of the face and neck, including:

  • Crow’s feet at the edge of the eyes
  • Creases between the eyebrows
  • Frown lines on the forehead

Our consultants

Our Consultant Dermatologist will treat the facial muscles using a series of small injections, which are uncomfortable rather than painful. You may experience slight swelling for the first day or two and the full effect of the treatment will not be seen for five to seven days.

You can speed up the beneficial effect by exercising your facial muscles vigorously in the first couple of hours after your treatment. Following the treatment, we offer full aftercare.

How long do the wrinkle treatments last?

These treatments usually lasts three to four months, after which a repeat treatment will be required. If you have regular treatments over 12 months, you may find that you will require repeat treatments less frequently in the future, perhaps only needing fresh injections every six months.

Are the injections safe?

Yes, the injections we use are listed as a ‘prescribed technique’ in the UK and is approved as a treatment if it is administered under the supervision of a qualified health professional.

Our treatments take place in the setting of a medical dermatology clinic and are given by our highly-qualified consultant dermatologists. Correct placement of the injections is crucial to the final result, and our depth of medical knowledge means that you can approach your treatment with full confidence.

Very occasionally there may be side effects associated with the treatment, such as:

  • Bruising at the site of the injections
  • Cold sores (especially if you are generally prone to getting cold sores)
  • Temporary drooping of the eyebrows
  • Headaches, nausea and flu-like symptoms
  • Temporary numbness around the treated area
  • Allergic reaction

If you have repeated treatments, there is an increased chance that you will have an immune reaction to the proteins in the preparation. If you do experience any problems, we can advise you whether to delay or avoid treatment in the future.
