Anti-Wrinkle Injections

Absolutely. Botox injections in the face are FDA and MHRA (US Food and Drug Administration, UK Medicines and Products Healthcare Regulatory Agency) approved. Botox injections have been used for many years with no known adverse effects. Like most cosmetic treatments, side effects rarely occur. Mild bruising and swelling is sometimes reported and a small percentage of users (1-3%) will experience drooping brows or eyelids. Both can be corrected and are temporary. To reduce the risk of complication, it is vital that you have anti-ageing injectables in a safe and medical environment. At Laser Chic, your treatment will be carried out only by a registered healthcare professional.

Anti-ageing injectables are virtually pain free and require no downtime. Unlike traditional anti-ageing procedures, such as surgical face lifts, injectables requires no cuts, incisions or stitches. Many clients describe the sensation as a small scratch from a tiny needle. For those feeling anxious, we can also use a local anaesthetic to numb the area completely.

It’s important to us that you achieve the results you want, and we believe this starts with a great consultation. You will never be rushed and our highly trained practitioners will take the time to discuss aspects of your skin you may be unhappy with, your desired results, costs and timings. Our aim is for you to leave your consultation feeling confident, fully informed and looking forward to your treatment.

Popular areas to have anti-ageing injectables include around the eyes, forehead and between the eyebrows to target lines and wrinkles. However, increasingly botox injections are being used to lift eyebrows and corners of the mouth and to target the orange peel appearance of the chin.

Your facial lines and wrinkles will appear smoothed out, giving you a subtly revived appearance. Your medical practitioner will discuss your specific concerns and the results you can expect to see in your consultation.

Results can take two weeks to reach their full effect and can last up to four months. However, this varies depending on a number of factors, which will be discussed with you in your consultation.

When used regularly, it has been reported that anti-wrinkle injectables can delay the signs of ageing. As we know, facial muscle movement causes lines and wrinkles. Anti-ageing injectables can restrict this movement, preventing lines, fold and wrinkles from forming.
