Anti-wrinkle injections are a popular cosmetic treatment used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. They work by temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause wrinkles and can be used to improve the look of crow’s feet, forehead lines, frown lines, and other facial wrinkles.
There are several types of anti-wrinkle injections available, each with its own unique benefits and drawbacks. In this article, we will take a look at some of the most popular types of anti-wrinkle injections and what they do.
Botox for Active Wrinkles
Botox is an anti-wrinkle injection that works to reduce wrinkles by temporarily paralysing the muscles that cause them. It works by blocking the release of a chemical called acetylcholine, which is responsible for muscle contractions. By blocking this chemical, Botox prevents the muscle from contracting and thus reduces wrinkles.
Botox injections are one of the most popular ways to reduce signs of ageing, as they are relatively safe and effective when administered correctly. With regular treatments, you can keep your skin looking younger for longer!
Dermal Filler for static lines
Dermal filler is a type of injectable treatment that is used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, hollowness, lines and folds in the skin, as well as improve facial features. It works by replacing lost volume and hydrating the skin, which can help to smooth out wrinkles and make them less noticeable. The most commonly used dermal filler is Hyaluronic Acid (HA) filler, which is a naturally occurring substance found in the body that helps to keep skin hydrated and plump. As we age, our body’s natural production of HA decreases resulting in wrinkles and other signs of ageing such as nasal lines. By injecting HA fillers into these areas, it can help restore lost volume and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
