The procedure involves administering Botulinum Toxin A into targeted areas to reduce wrinkles.

This has been used for over 35 years and is a protein that blocks the nerve signals which tells muscles to work.

Botox is mainly used for the face – forehead wrinkles, crow’s feet lines around the eyes, and the ‘No.11 lines’ between the eyebrows (the glabella) are the most popular areas. Other areas that can be treated include lifting eyebrows, minimising smokers lines on the upper lip and bunny lines on the side of the nose, decreasing the ‘orange peel’ appearance of the chin and lifting the corners of a down-turned mouth.
