Frown lines are wrinkles which form between the eyebrows and crow’s feet form around the eyes. Overactive facial muscles around the eyes and lower forehead may give a person an angry, tired, or displeased appearance - even when they are not experiencing that emotion. Professional use of anti-wrinkle injections can result in a more relaxed, yet expressive face. Crows Feet injection work by relaxing the contracted muscles which cause these wrinkles.

Procedure: It is a simple 30min treatment. The area to be treated is cleansed thoroughly. A topical anaesthetic cream is applied to reduce discomfort and the anti-wrinkle product is injected with a fine needle directly into the muscle beneath the wrinkle. The muscle function becomes weakened, eliminating part or all of its function. Long-standing skin creases will soften and may eventually disappear. The result is a softer, more relaxed and pleasant appearance.

The procedure takes about 30 minutes. You may return to work immediately. It is a painless procedure, though a slight stinging sensation may be felt.
