Description: Botulinum toxin (popularly known by its trade name, Botox) is a protein
that helps stop muscle spams. When it is given as small painless injections
into the facial muscles it blocks the signal from the nerve to the muscles
causing them to relax. This relaxation results in a softening of facial
lines.
For additional information please visit Botox.
Duration: Botox takes 2-3 days before you notice the effects. The full effect of
the treatment is achieved by 2 weeks. The beneficial results typically
last for 3-4 months or longer (up to about a year after several repeated
treatments of Botox).
Procedure: Botox is most effective in three main areas of the upper face; wrinkles
around the eyes (crow’s feet); horizontal forehead lines; and the vertical
frown lines above the bridge of the nose. Treatment takes 15 to 30mins.
Fees: Price is fixed at £100 per area.
This price includes an initial consultation to discuss the treatment and
answer any questions.
Prices also include a 2 week review appointment following your first treatment,
and if clinically indicated, we offer a top up at no extra cost.
