Anti-wrinkle injections can improve the appearance of expression (or hyperdynamic) lines resulting from high muscle activity due to animation. Injections of a purified form of botulinum toxin temporarily reduce and soften glabellar frown lines, periorbital crow’s feet and horizontal forehead lines. Anti-wrinkle injections may also help to prevent future lines from developing.
Over time the ageing process causes skin thinning and laxity along with a loss of facial volume. Dermal fillers containing hyaluronic acid (a naturally -occurring substance) can help to replenish the skins support structures damaged by ageing. Dermal fillers are injected into the skin to improve fine lines and deep folds. They are also used to help restore volume and symmetry to the face resulting in a refreshed and natural appearance.
Finding the most appropriate treatment can be difficult if you are unsure about what the options are. Sarah can offer advice, help you identify the cause of your concerns and recommend a treatment plan suitable for your needs.
