Soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles with Anti-wrinkle Injections

Lines and wrinkles are caused by overactive muscle movements in your face and body, leading to creases over time. At MediZen, all anti-wrinkle injection treatments begin with a consultation at our Birmingham clinic, where one of our doctors or nurses will assess your needs. Depending on your concerns and desired results, your medical professional will determine if anti-wrinkle injections in Birmingham are suitable for you. These injections work by temporarily blocking muscle activity, relaxing your skin, and softening the appearance of lines and wrinkles.

Wrinkle relaxing treatments use tiny amounts of anti-wrinkle injectables which are injected into the muscles which cause the skin to crease. The protein in these injectables blocks impulses from the nerve to the facial muscles preventing wrinkles from forming. This puts the muscle into “hibernation” for around 3 – 4 months leaving the overlying skin looking smooth and less wrinkled.

Book your consultation for anti-wrinkle treatments in Birmingham

Our highly experienced medics understand how to achieve natural-looking results that will leave you feeling and looking refreshed. During your consultation, your practitioner will discuss your desired outcomes and recommend the best treatment course. We offer all patients a fully bespoke treatment plan.

Anti-wrinkle treatments in Birmingham work only on the muscle being injected, allowing surrounding muscles to function normally, so you don’t have to worry about your face looking ‘frozen’ or expressionless. There is a range of wrinkle-relaxing drugs from various brands available in the UK aesthetics market. Most medics have a preferred choice of products based on medical evidence, results they’ve observed, and what works best for their patients’ individual needs.

MediZen offers the most popular brands of anti-wrinkle injections, including a brand-new product that was previously only available in the USA and Canada. Dr. Eccleston was the first doctor in Europe to offer this product to his patients, and its popularity has been remarkable.

The choice of anti-wrinkle injection suitable for you is always based on a medical consultation with one of our doctors or nurses to ensure the right product for your needs is used. We cannot offer anti-wrinkle injections without a thorough consultation. To book a consultation for anti-wrinkle treatments in Birmingham, please contact us or book online.

FAQ

We’re here to help

Side effects of anti-wrinkle injections are rare, but can include some tenderness or bruising at the site of injection.

At a medically-led aesthetic clinic like MediZen, we ensure that all patients get natural-looking results. We have been administering anti-wrinkle injections for over 20 years. Our multi-award winning clinical director, Dr. David Eccleston was named Tatlersr’s ‘Man in the Midlands’ for Anti-Wrinkle Injections as well as one of the UK’s top 10 Anti-Wrinkle Doctors by The Times. As a national complications expert and global trainer in the administration of Anti-Wrinkle Injections, we can assure you that you’re in the safest hands.

Because of the fine needle used, most clients find that discomfort is only mild and temporary. The entire procedure usually takes no longer than a few minutes.

Wrinkle relaxing treatments work by using a small amount of an anti-wrinkle injectable which is injected into the muscle that is causing the skin to crease. When injected, they temporarily block muscle activity, helping to prevent wrinkles from forming or deepening. The treated muscle is essentially put into hibernation for around 3-4 months, leaving the overlying skin looking smooth and less wrinkled. Don’t worry though, the treatment only works on the muscle that’s being injected, leaving the surrounding muscles functioning as normal so your face won’t look frozen or expressionless. The muscle will activity will slowly start to return around 3-4 months following treatment.

Treatment areas:

  • Crows feet (around the eyes)
  • Forehead
  • Frown lines (between eyebrows)
  • Nose (bunny lines)
  • Jaw
  • Chin
  • Gummy smile
  • Eyebrows (brow lift)
  • Around lips (smokers lines)
  • Neck

We can also use wrinkle-relaxing injections for other concerns:

  • Excessive sweating (palms, feet, underarms, upper lip etc)
  • Migraines
  • Raynaud’s Disease
  • Teeth grinding and jaw clenching

All patients will require a consultation with one of our doctors or nurses before commencing any anti-wrinkle treatment. This treatment requires a prescription only drug which must be prescribed by a doctor or nurse, and injected by a fully trained medical professional. A consultation is necessary in order to discuss your concerns, medical history and desired results. This will ensure your practitioner recommends the most effective product for you, and can inject in the specific areas you are concerned about.

Absolutely! As a medical aesthetic clinic, we recommend all of our patients combine treatments to get the best possible results. As anti-wrinkle injections only target muscle activity, there are a range of treatments options available to address other ageing concerns. For injectable treatments this includes polynucleotides, Profhilo, dermal filler and thread lifts. We recommend that all anti-wrinkle patients also consider commencing skin treatments to ensure their overall skin quality improves over time, this helps with reducing the signs of ageing and can improve anti-wrinkle injection results. Our skin treatments include lasers, micro-needling, chemical peels, hydrafacials and medical grade skincare.
