Overview

Anti-wrinkle injections, also known as neuromodulators, are a popular cosmetic treatment offered at Manningtree Dental and Implant Centre. These injections use purified botulinum toxin to temporarily relax facial muscles, reducing the appearance of dynamic wrinkles and lines. This non-surgical procedure provides a quick and effective solution for a youthful, refreshed appearance.

What Are Anti-wrinkle Injections Used To Treat?

Anti-wrinkle injections are primarily used to treat dynamic wrinkles – those caused by muscle movement. Common treatment areas include crow’s feet around the eyes, frown lines between the eyebrows, and forehead lines. The injections can also be used to prevent the development of new wrinkles and to provide a smoother, more relaxed facial expression.

This treatment can also effectively treat a gummy smile by relaxing the upper lip muscles, which reduces the excessive lift of the lip and minimises the visibility of the gums when smiling. This treatment provides a balanced and harmonious smile by addressing the muscle activity that contributes to the gummy appearance.

The Treatment Process

Anti-wrinkle injections are available at Manningtree Dental and Implant Centre because our dental professionals have advanced training in facial anatomy and precision, which ensures safe and effective treatment. Their expertise allows for the accurate placement of injections to achieve optimal aesthetic results, complementing dental treatments and enhancing overall facial appearance. The treatment process typically involves the following steps:

1.

Consultation

Your treatment begins with a comprehensive consultation where your dentist or trained practitioner evaluates your facial muscles and discusses your aesthetic goals to design a customised treatment plan.

2.

Preparation

The targeted areas are cleansed, and a topical numbing cream may be applied to minimise discomfort.

3.

Injection

Using a fine needle, the neuromodulator is precisely injected into the muscles responsible for causing wrinkles. The procedure is quick, typically taking around 30 minutes.

4.

Post-Treatment Guidance

After the injections, you will receive care instructions and any necessary follow-up appointments to assess your results.

Manningtree Aesthetic - FAQ

FAQs

How long do anti-wrinkle injections last?

Anti-wrinkle injections typically last between 3-4 months. The duration of effectiveness can vary depending on individual factors such as muscle activity, metabolism, and the area treated. Regular maintenance treatments are recommended to keep up the desired results and prevent the reappearance of wrinkles.

Are anti-wrinkle injections safe?

Yes, anti-wrinkle injections are generally safe when administered by a qualified professional. The purified botulinum toxin used has a long track record of safety and efficacy. Side effects are usually mild and temporary, such as minor swelling or bruising at the injection site. It’s important to choose a reputable practitioner to minimise risks.

Can anti-wrinkle injections be used for non-cosmetic purposes?

Yes, anti-wrinkle injections have various medical uses beyond cosmetic applications. They can treat conditions such as chronic migraines, excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), and certain muscular disorders. Consult with your healthcare provider to determine if this treatment is suitable for addressing specific medical concerns.

Will anti-wrinkle injections make my face look frozen or unnatural?

When administered correctly, anti-wrinkle injections should not make your face look frozen or unnatural. A skilled practitioner will tailor the dosage and injection sites to achieve a natural-looking result, allowing for normal facial expressions while smoothing out wrinkles. Discuss your concerns with your provider to ensure a personalised approach.

How soon can I resume normal activities after treatment?

You can generally resume normal activities immediately after receiving anti-wrinkle injections. However, it’s advisable to avoid strenuous exercise, heavy lifting, and applying pressure to the treated areas for the first 24 hours. This helps prevent complications and ensures that the neuromodulator remains in the targeted muscles for best results.
