What Are Anti Wrinkle Injections?
Anti wrinkle injections are used to reduce the appearance of stubborn upper facial lines and folds. They temporarily relax the facial muscles to prevent them from contracting and causing wrinkles.
By limiting muscle movement, anti wrinkle injections smooth out existing wrinkles and prevent the formation of new ones. This process improves the signs of static ageing, providing a subtle yet youthful result.
At Secret Skin Aesthetics, we use Alluzience anti wrinkle injections. This product eliminates the need for dosage calculations, ensuring a safe and effective outcome always.
What Do Anti Wrinkle Injections Do?
Anti wrinkle injections contain a purified neurotoxin that targets the nerve signals responsible for muscle contraction.
When injected into the forehead, between the eyebrows or around the eyes, the toxin reduces muscle activity to diminish any existing signs of ageing. It also prevents repetitive facial movements to curb any new wrinkles and fine lines.
At our clinic in Hampshire, you must be prescribed Alluzience by our in-house practitioner Emily at a pre-treatment consultation. Nurse Louise or Emily can then administer your treatment soon after.
