Botox (Anti-Wrinkle Treatment)
Reduce the signs of ageing with anti-ageing injections
One of the most popular cosmetic treatments across the globe, Botox works by injecting a solution into the skin to temporarily relax the muscles. This helps to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles, rejuvenating and restoring a youthful glow to the skin.
Whether you’re looking for a subtle enhancement or a more dramatic look, our specialists at Downing Dental in Solihull can help you achieve your desired look.
Botox injections are a highly effective way to rid the skin of any unwanted wrinkles and fine lines, like crow’s feet or frown lines. The treatment works by injecting a liquid known as botulinum toxin into the targeted area, such as the chin, forehead, neck, jawline etc., and temporarily blocks the signals from the nerves to the muscles.
This prevents the muscle from contracting, resulting in the relaxation and softening of wrinkles without causing any damage to the surrounding tissue. Botox is a quick and relatively painless treatment, lasting around just 10 minutes, with results lasting anywhere from 3 to 6 months on average. After this time, the muscles will gradually regain their strength, and the treatment can be repeated as needed to maintain results.
Immediately after treatment, it is important to follow the correct aftercare to ensure optimal treatment results. This includes remaining upright for at least 4 hours, maintaining a steady heart rate, and simply leaving the treated area be. Some mild side effects can occur after Botox including bruising, swelling, redness, and a headache for the first 24 hours.
