Anti-Wrinkle Relaxant Treatments

Prescribing clinician-led wrinkle relaxing injections — subtle, natural-looking results delivered following comprehensive clinical assessment and individual suitability review.

What are anti-wrinkle relaxant treatments?

Anti-wrinkle relaxant treatments use a purified protein to temporarily relax the muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles — the lines that form when you frown, squint or raise your eyebrows. By softening muscle activity, the skin appears smoother and more refreshed.

These are among the most well-established aesthetic treatments available. When delivered by a prescribing clinician with a thorough understanding of facial anatomy, the results are natural — you still look like you, just refreshed.

Treatment areas

Forehead lines

Horizontal lines across the forehead caused by raising the eyebrows.

Frown lines

Vertical lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines) caused by frowning or concentrating.

Crow’s feet

Fine lines radiating from the outer corners of the eyes, often visible when smiling.

Lower face lines

Lines around the mouth and lower face contributing to an aged or tired appearance.

Chin dimpling

A pebbled or dimpled texture on the chin caused by overactive mentalis muscle.

Jawline tension

Visible tension or bulkiness along the jawline from clenching or grinding.

Neck bands

Prominent vertical bands on the neck (platysmal bands) that become more visible with age.

Calf slimming

Targeted relaxation of the gastrocnemius muscle to reduce calf bulk and create a slimmer, more contoured lower leg profile.

Hyperhidrosis

Treatment for excessive sweating, most commonly in the underarms, by blocking the nerve signals that trigger sweat glands.

What to expect — facial treatments

1

Consultation

A thorough facial assessment to understand your concerns, discuss treatment areas and confirm suitability. This is a two-way conversation — your goals guide the plan.

2

Treatment

Small, precise injections are administered to the targeted muscles. The procedure typically takes 15–20 minutes and is well tolerated.

3

Results

You may begin to notice the effects within 3–5 days, with full results typically visible at 10–14 days. Results generally last 3–4 months.

4

Review

A follow-up review is offered at two weeks to assess the outcome and make any adjustments if needed.

Calf slimming with muscle relaxant

Some people have naturally prominent or bulky calves due to overdeveloped gastrocnemius muscles — the large muscles at the back of the lower leg. This can be genetic, or the result of exercise habits, and may cause self-consciousness about the shape and proportion of the legs.

Calf slimming uses the same muscle relaxant protein used in facial anti-wrinkle treatments, injected into the gastrocnemius muscle to reduce its bulk over time. As the muscle relaxes and gradually decreases in size, the calf appears slimmer and more contoured.

This is a non-surgical approach to calf reshaping — no incisions, no compression garments, and no significant downtime.

Who may benefit

Those with genetically prominent or muscular calves
People who feel their calves are disproportionate to their frame
Individuals who have difficulty fitting into boots or certain clothing
Anyone seeking a slimmer lower leg profile without surgery

What to expect

1

Assessment

A clinical assessment of your calf shape, muscle bulk and proportions to confirm suitability and discuss realistic expectations.

2

Treatment

Multiple small injections are administered into the gastrocnemius muscle in both calves. The procedure typically takes 20–30 minutes.

3

Results

Gradual slimming becomes visible over 4–8 weeks as the muscle reduces in size. Results typically last 4–6 months, with maintenance treatments recommended.

Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating)

Hyperhidrosis is a condition characterised by excessive sweating beyond what is needed to regulate body temperature. It most commonly affects the underarms (axillary hyperhidrosis), but can also involve the palms, soles of the feet and forehead. For many people, it causes significant embarrassment, anxiety and disruption to daily life.

The same muscle relaxant protein used in anti-wrinkle treatments can be injected into the affected area to block the nerve signals that trigger sweat glands. This temporarily reduces sweating in the treated area, offering relief that typically lasts 4–9 months.

This is a well-established, evidence-based treatment that has been used for hyperhidrosis for over two decades. It is delivered as a straightforward clinical procedure with minimal downtime.

Who may benefit

Those who sweat excessively through clothing regardless of temperature
People who avoid certain fabrics, colours or social situations due to sweating
Individuals who have not responded well to prescription antiperspirants
Anyone whose quality of life is affected by uncontrollable sweating

What to expect

1

Assessment

A clinical consultation to discuss the severity and impact of your sweating, review your medical history and confirm suitability for treatment.

2

Treatment

Multiple small injections are administered just below the skin surface in the affected area (most commonly the underarms). The procedure typically takes 20–30 minutes and is well tolerated.

3

Results

A noticeable reduction in sweating is usually experienced within 2–7 days, with full effect at around two weeks. Results typically last 4–9 months, after which the treatment can be repeated.

Important considerations

  • Treatment is most effective for focal hyperhidrosis (localised excessive sweating) rather than generalised sweating.
  • A thorough medical history is taken to rule out any underlying causes before treatment is offered.
  • Some bruising or tenderness at the injection sites is normal and resolves within a few days.
  • You should avoid vigorous exercise, saunas and hot baths for 24–48 hours after treatment.
  • Maintenance treatments are recommended to sustain the results over time.
