Botox is a brand name for a purified form of botulinum toxin. It works by blocking nerve signals in the muscles where it's injected. This causes the muscles to relax, reducing the appearance of wrinkles.
When administered by a qualified professional, botulinum toxin injections are generally safe. However, like any medical procedure, it does carry some possible risks and side effects. It's essential to have it done by a licensed and experienced practitioner. Our doctor has completed a medical degree and additional aesthetic qualifications with the London School of Facial Aesthetics and Cosmetic Courses UK.
The effects of Botox typically last around 3-6 months. Over time, the muscle action gradually returns, and wrinkles may reappear. Regular treatments are often necessary to maintain the results.
There's typically no downtime after a Botox treatment. Most people can return to their normal activities immediately. However, it's recommended to avoid vigorous exercise and lying down for a few hours after the procedure.
Dermal fillers are injectable substances made of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body, that degrades as we age. Dermal fillers work by adding volume to specific areas of the face, such as the lips, cheeks, and around the mouth. They help smooth wrinkles and creases, plump up thin lips, and improve facial contours.

The longevity of dermal fillers can vary based on the type used and the area treated. Typically, hyaluronic acid fillers last 6-18 months.
After the procedure, you may experience some swelling, redness, and possibly bruising at the injection sites. These effects usually peak within the first 24-48 hours after the treatment, and then gradually improve. It is advised to avoid vigorous exercise and any alcohol or anti-inflammatory pain killers for 24 hours after the treatment.
