How anti-wrinkle injections work
Many lines on the upper face come from repeated muscle movement: raising your eyebrows, frowning, smiling. Anti-wrinkle injections relax the specific muscles behind those lines, so the skin above them smooths out.
Anti-wrinkle injections are a prescription-only medicine, so your suitability is assessed before any treatment.

What to expect
Treatment takes 20 to 45 minutes depending on the number of areas. The injections are very fine and quick, and most people find them easy to tolerate. Results start to show after 3 to 5 days and reach full effect at around two weeks.
Aftercare
Stay upright for 4 hours after treatment and avoid rubbing or massaging the area. Skip strenuous exercise, saunas and alcohol for 24 hours.
