What is This Treatment

Non-Surgical Cosmetic Treatment

Wrinkle treatments have been used to treat millions of patients worldwide and is the world’s most popular non-surgical cosmetic treatment. These products work best as a preventative measure . After a thorough Consultation, treatment is then used to help prevent static lines appearing, as well as helping to soften existing lines.

What We Do

Why use these products?

The facial expressions that you make daily can contribute to the development of fine lines and wrinkles. When we laugh, frown or make expressive facial movements, the muscles contract and cause “dynamic wrinkles” (those that only show with facial movement) these wrinkles resolve when we treat them. As we age these wrinkles become increasingly noticeable and will eventually form static wrinkles (visible even when not moving facial muscles) giving an older, more tired, stressed, anxious or angry look.

These  treatments  directly tackle the cause of dynamic lines, which in turn can prevent the formation of new lines.

With repeated and regular treatments, your muscles become re-educated limiting the damage incurred by the skin’s natural collagen and reducing the development of new lines.
