Wrinkle Injections &
Gummy Smile.
"Wrinkle injections" is an anti-ageing treatment commonly used to help smooth the appearance of lines and wrinkles. This treatment improves wrinkles caused by muscular activity such as laughing, smiling and frowning.
Overtime, and specially after the age of 35, your face will naturally start to develop fine lines and wrinkles as collagen production decreases and the skin starts losing elasticity. Over exposure to sun, smoking, city living and stress can accelerate the ageing process leaving your skin with tired lines and wrinkles.
This is the most popular treatment to improve expression lines, it is a form of muscular relaxation that acts on targeted muscles. The treatment involves injections to specific areas of the face and is virtually painless. The procedure takes around 15 mins. This treatment gives you a fresher, more youthful appearance. The effect can last from 3 to 4 months.
