Anti-wrinkle injections in Holborn
Most people nowadays are aware of the benefits of anti-wrinkle injections. It is one of the most popular cosmetic treatments worldwide. It’s a quick and effective treatment that smooths out lines and wrinkles and is primarily used on the forehead, crows feet and frown lines.
Anti-wrinkle injections are great for rejuvenating the look of your face, and for those of us that wear makeup, it gives us smoother skin and an even foundation for makeup to adhere to.
When’s the best time to start anti-wrinkle injections?
If you haven’t had anti-wrinkle injections yet but are considering it, you will need to be over 18. If you are over 18 there are things that you may want to consider before getting anti-wrinkle injections. For example, they are best for people who are starting to see fine lines and wrinkles developing.
If you are not seeing the signs of ageing yet, anti-wrinkle injections can be used as a preventative treatment, however we would always recommend that you have a consultation with a medically trained aesthetics professional so they can assess whether this treatment is right for you.
At London Real Skin we are a dermatology-led clinic and we are trained to be able to offer the best advice to patients who may be starting out on their anti-wrinkle injection journey.
Am I too old to have anti-wrinkle injections?
You’re never too old to have your first anti-wrinkle injections, however if you have deep set lines and wrinkles this treatment might not be able to completely eradicate these lines for you.
Starting your anti-wrinkle injections just as lines begin to show is the ideal, as the treatment will relax the muscles and this will in turn stop deeper lines and wrinkles forming.
If you have deeper lines and wrinkles we would recommend that you have a free consultation at our clinic in Holborn. We will be able to assess if anti-wrinkle injections will give you the results you expect, and we can also suggest other treatments that can help you to soften deep set lines.
