Our wrinkle reduction treatments, which when injected into a muscle, causes it to become weakened or inactivated. it stops muscles from functioning by blocking neuromuscular transmission i.e it stops the chemical message from the nerve to the muscle.

Dermal Fillers are injectable products either synthetic or natural which are used to help restore volume or fill various lines around the face. they are injectable under the skin to give a more youthful or enhanced look.

Anti-wrinkle treatment is one of many brands in the UK used medically to treat certain muscular conditions and cosmetically to remove wrinkles by causing temporary paralysis of the underlying muscles. It is produced from the neurotoxin that is derived from, an organism found in the natural environment where it is largely inactive and non-toxic. Anti-wrinkle treatment works by inhibiting the release of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine thereby reducing the contraction of the muscles that cause undesired effects like frown lines.

What are they and how do they work? During our natural ageing process our skin loses its underlying supportive structure as well as its soft and firm appearance. This is due to breakdown of collagen and loss of hydration under the skin. The loss of hydration is a direct result of hyaluronic acid which is a natural substance found in the body. Each molecule of hyaluronic acid has the capability of holding 1000 times its weight in water which makes it a suitable product for hydrating our skin. As we age the natural production of hyaluronic acid diminishes reducing the ability to hold moisture which is required to hydrate the skin. Dermal fillers containing hyaluronic acid are injected under the skin to try to compensate for the ones which have been lost through the ageing process. This gel-like substance mimics natural hyaluronic acid, drawing in water to restore lost volume. This cosmetically enhances the features of the face creating a more youthful look. Dermal fillers are also ideal for softening deep lines.
