What To Look For In An Anti-Wrinkle Treatment Provider – #safetyinbeauty

What is anti-wrinkle treatment?

Anti-wrinkle treatment involves injecting tiny amounts of a well-known muscle relaxer into targeted areas of the skin. This helps to reduce (but not prevent) movement, which softens the lines and wrinkles caused by expressions like frowning and smiling.

Is the anti-wrinkle treatment safe?

Absolutely. It has been used for decades in the beauty and aesthetics industry and is one of the most popular treatments around. It also has medical backing, as the same ingredient is used for treating a host of conditions from migraines to excessive sweating and teeth grinding.

Who can perform anti-wrinkle injections?

The treatment must be prescribed by a qualified medical practitioner after a face-to-face meeting. This could include a doctor, dentist, pharmacist prescriber or nurse prescriber.

What should I look for in my anti-wrinkle treatment provider?

It’s a good idea to check if your provider is on a register, like the CQC (Care and Quality Commission), which helps to regulate practitioners in the industry. You’ll also need to check their insurance, in case something goes wrong. Finally, ask about their qualifications and experience, and make sure you know the specific name of the product they’ll be using for your anti-wrinkle injections.

Why have anti-wrinkle injections?

Side effects with this treatment are typically mild – some passing bruising, swelling and tenderness are often all our client’s experience. Serious complications are rare. We take great care to minimise any side effects through expert techniques and fine needles and favour a natural result that won’t look fake or frozen.

What other treatments can I try for fine lines and wrinkles?

We provide the best advice during your consultation, our Doncaster aesthetics clinic. This is led by our lead clinician, Lyndsey. To give you a general idea, treatments such as skin peels may be recommended, or even dermaroller. Skin peels help to ‘peel back’ the outermost layers, while a dermaroller helps to rejuvenate the skin through tiny, controlled ‘skin injuries’.
