When we talk about things freezing during the winter months, it usually refers to the weather and not your face. Many people think that anti-wrinkle injections can lead to that frozen face look that means you can neither scowl nor smile. However, that should not actually be the case, and these injections now give a younger and fresher appearance without the fear of freezing. Julia’s Suffolk Aesthetics Clinic now offers expert Anti-Wrinkle Injections that are applied safely and correctly.
What are Anti-Wrinkle Injections?
Anti-Wrinkle Injections can sometimes be confused with dermal fillers, but they are actually quite different. These injections tend to be used on the upper areas of the face to treat things such as frown lines and crow’s feet. While fillers create volume in the face, anti-wrinkle injections block the nerves that contract the muscles, reducing the appearance of lines and wrinkles. It creates smoother skin above the muscles, but the results are not instant, and the product can need anything up to 14 days to settle and attach itself to the nerve endings to work effectively.
Anti-Wrinkle Injection Results:
The effects of Anti-Wrinkle Injections are not permanent and usually last around 3-4 months. They target what are known as dynamic wrinkles – the lines and creases that appear around the eyes, the middle of the brow, and the lips, where the skin moves the most as we express ourselves. Usually, these creases are only apparent when we smile or frown. Still, a gradual build-up of muscle tension combined with the ageing process cracks the collagen beneath the skin, making the lines more and more visible over time.

Facial Movements and Expression:
There was a time when we became used to seeing celebrities with unnaturally smooth foreheads, seemingly unable to move their faces. Fortunately, we’ve moved beyond this, and the reality now is quite different. Preserving your ability to express emotions is a priority. Only small amounts of solution are used to ensure that you can still maintain the normal movement of your face. After a few months, you will notice the effects wearing off, and your normal nerve and muscle functioning will return. You can then have the treatment repeated or topped up if desired.
Preventing Wrinkles:
Anti-wrinkle injections are not just for treating existing wrinkles but also for preventing new ones. By immobilising the muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles, you can prevent or delay the associated lines from forming in the first place. This proactive approach can help maintain smoother skin and a youthful appearance.
