Introduction
Anti-Wrinkle Injections in Essex
The aim of the treatment is not to change the way you look. It is to soften the lines that bother you while preserving your natural expressions and the features that make you look like yourself.
Treatment Overview
What Are Anti-Wrinkle Injections?
Anti-wrinkle injections use a prescription medicine called botulinum toxin (Botox) to temporarily reduce movement in selected facial muscles. Repeated expressions, such as smiling, frowning and squinting, can make fine lines and wrinkles more noticeable.
Treating the muscles responsible can soften these lines and help the face look fresher and more rested.
How it works
The three most common treatment areas
The forehead, frown lines and crow’s feet are most often treated. One, two or all three areas may be recommended, depending on your concerns and how your face moves.
Forehead Lines
Horizontal forehead lines develop through repeated eyebrow movement. Carefully placed injections can soften them while retaining suitable movement across the forehead and brow.
Frown Lines & 11 Lines
Frown lines form between the eyebrows and are also known as glabellar lines or “11 lines”. Treatment of the frown lines with anti-wrinkle injections can soften their appearance and reduce a tired, tense or concerned look.
Crow’s Feet
Crow’s feet appear at the outer corners of the eyes when you smile or squint. Anti-wrinkle treatment can soften these lines while keeping the warmth and character of your natural smile.
Other Areas
Other areas that may
be treated
Anti-wrinkle injections may also be considered for around the eyes, nose, mouth, lower face, jawline and neck. Not every treatment is suitable for everyone, which is why a personal consultation is important.

Consultation
Your Anti-Wrinkle Consultation
New patients must attend a consultation before booking their first treatment at Smooth Dimensions. Your medical history, medication, previous treatments and desired outcome will be discussed.
Your practitioner will look at how your face moves and consider your individual facial features before explaining the options that may suit you.
The Treatment Process
What happens during treatment?
A treatment appointment usually lasts around 30 minutes. Your medical information and agreed plan will be confirmed, and photographs will be taken before a series of small injections are administered.
You may notice a change within the first few days, but the full result should be visible after around two weeks. Results commonly last three to four months, although this varies according to the area treated and how your body responds.
You will be offered a review once the Botox treatment has developed fully. If additional treatment is clinically appropriate, a top-up costs £30.
