Crease lines, wrinkles, loss of volume on the face are all natural parts of ageing. Some of us embrace age without any issues. On the other hand, many folks go through painstaking lengths to fight of signs of ageing. These lines commonly start appearing in the thirties and become more prominent in the fifties. There are many reasons including lifestyle, genetics, smoking, over exposure to sun and repeated facial expressions that result in these unwanted changes.

A guide to the latest treatment that is in high demand:

​

• Anti-Wrinkle Injections for the temporary improvement in the appearance of moderate to severe glabellar lines (vertical lines between the eyebrows) seen at frown and lateral canthal lines (crow’s feet lines) in adult patients under 65 years, when the severity of these lines has an important psychological impact on the patient.

• Anti-Wrinkle Injection contains a substance, botulinum toxin A, which causes muscles to relax. It acts at the junction between the nerves and muscle to prevent the release of a chemical messenger called acetylcholine from the nerve endings. This prevents muscles from contracting. The muscle relaxation is temporary and gradually wears off.

• The effect of the treatment should be noticeable within a few days after injection.

• As inject-able treatments for wrinkles and frown lines, all Anti-Wrinkle Injection products work similarly: they both contain very small doses of botulinum toxin, which inhibits the stimulation of nerves, with the effect of relaxing the muscles that cause facial wrinkles. This is an advantage, as fewer injections are required in large areas (such as the forehead), with less potential discomfort for the patient.
