Anti-Wrinkle Service
We are pleased to announce our brand new Botox anti-wrinkle service, which can be used to soften the appearance of forehead lines, Glabellar lines and Crow’s feet for a refreshed and more youthful complexion.
How Does It Work?
When injected into the treatment area in small doses, Botox anti-wrinkle treatments work by blocking the signals between the muscles and nerves, which allows the muscle to relax and helps to minimise the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Please note that it can take up to two weeks for the full effects of anti-wrinkle treatment to develop.
How Long Do Results Last?
Results will vary depending on your desired outcome and your skin, but generally, Botox anti-wrinkle treatments provide visible results that will last for between three and six months.
What Does Botox Anti-Wrinkle Treatment Involve?
Before Botox treatment is administered, you will sit down with one of our fully trained pharmacists for an initial consultation. During this consultation, it is important to be prepared to answer a number of health questions which will help our pharmacists to understand whether you have any health concerns that could be worsened by Botox treatments.
If you are a suitable candidate for Botox treatment, your pharmacist will work with you to develop a bespoke treatment plan and clearly explain the possible effects of Botox treatment. Please ask as many questions as you wish, as we want you to be fully informed before deciding whether Botox is the right treatment for you.
How Much Does Botox Anti-Wrinkle Treatment Cost?
As this is a new service, we are running a special introductory offer on all Botox anti-wrinkle treatments.
1 treatment area = £150
2 treatment areas = £200
3 treatment areas = £225
Who is Not Suitable for Botox Anti-Wrinkle Treatment?
You will not be considered to be a suitable candidate for Botox anti-wrinkle treatments if you:
– Have an allergy to Botulinum Toxin and/or human albumin
– Have been diagnosed with a neuromuscular disorder, Lambert-Eaton syndrome and/or Myasthenia Gravis
– Are pregnant or breastfeeding
Pre-Treatment Advice
We recommend scheduling your Botox treatment appointment at least two weeks before any special occasions you want to celebrate, such as a wedding, birthday or holiday.
In the two weeks prior to your treatment appointment, it is also important to avoid taking any anti-inflammatory medications or medicines that may thin your blood. These medications could make you more susceptible to experiencing bruising or swelling after Botox injections. However, please don’t stop any medications without first seeking advice from a medical professional.
On the day of your treatment, please don’t wear any skin products or make-up.
Aftercare Advice
You will be provided with detailed aftercare advice to follow after your treatment. Here is what you can expect your post-treatment advice to include:
