Our Anti-Wrinkle Injections Help Create A Flawless Appearance

Our Anti-Wrinkle Injections Help Create A Flawless Appearance

Achieve a flawless appearance

Anti-wrinkle injections simply relax your muscles preventing the skin from creasing. This means the wrinkles are kept at bay and you achieve a flawless appearance without looking ‘done’.

The best age to start Anti-wrinkle injections is when you begin to notice that your dynamic lines (frown lines) have become static, this is often from your early 30’s.

Anti-wrinkle injections are for women and men

Although many of our customers are female, we are also treating an increasing number of men, and a fair amount are getting what we like to call “Bro-tox”. Our typical profile of the males we treat are professional workers who work long hours, are quite successful, often have little sleep and are in competitive work environments where they feel appearing fresh, energetic and youthful could enhance their career prospects.

3D Global Face Rejuvenation Using Botulinum (Botox) Toxin

Botulinum toxin (Botox) is the number one rejuvenating facial treatment chosen by patients and doctors worldwide.

3D Global Face Rejuvenation Using Botulinum (Botox) Toxin

A host of new indications and techniques have been developed using this product, which is deemed as safe after undergoing hundreds of clinical trials over the last 25 years. Today, we use Botulinum toxin at the FAB Clinic to perform ‘full face and neck’ treatments, on its own or before filler injections.

Purity and precision for 3D distribution

Botox is a fantastic clinical solution when injected by a doctor who masters injection techniques and knows how to distribute the product precisely, and its use is even more interesting with better knowledge of the muscle patterns and neuromuscular junctions (where the nerve goes into the muscle). We know where to inject deeply and where to treat superficially, according to the muscle attachments, which allows for great precision and allows us to control the product’s distribution. The results achieved on a mobile face are more natural, because they respect the facial dynamics. In-depth knowledge of these facial dynamics combined with the precision of Botox allows us to use it specifically on the middle and lower parts of the face, as well as the neck.

These developments are possible thanks to our better understanding of the three-dimensional distribution of the facial muscles. This is where the ‘3D’ treatment approach comes in.

Physiochemically-speaking, Botox does not contain any protein complexes and therefore, in theory, no elements that might provoke an autoimmune reaction or cause the body to produce antibodies. As for Botox, based on clinical and scientific studies, this toxin was the first to obtain approval from the healthcare regulatory board for three indications: forehead, glabella and crow’s feet.

Zone by zone treatment

Botox and hyaluronic acid are very useful tools that can visibly and naturally correct facial flaws or negative expressions, such as a tired, anxious, sad or angry expression. As we age, muscle changes produce expressions that project emotional messages which do not match the patient’s personality or state of mind. The treatment always starts with the upper part of the face.

Forehead lines respond perfectly to injections into the muscle that lifts the eyebrow, as do glabellar lines, which make a person look angry or strict, especially men. The advantage of Botox is that the range of its distribution is so precise that there is no “frozen look”. For crow’s feet, three injection points smooth the periorbital lines and, if necessary, can lift the tail of the eyebrow. In the middle of the face, sometimes the small muscle at the tip of the nose is overactive when in movement or when the person smiles, making it point downwards and thus accentuating any bumps on their profile. A small dose of toxin blocks the muscle and enables us to rotate the tip upwards, which softens the appearance of any bumps and the dilation of the nostrils. As for a gummy smile, the muscles that pull the lip upwards are relaxed so that they cover up the gums when the person smiles. This injection also acts upon on the nasolabial folds.

Marionette lines are one of the most negative aspects of facial expression, caused by a hyperactive muscle that pulls the corner of the mouth downwards. By relaxing this muscle, we can reposition the edges of the mouth. For “barcode” lines on the upper lip, microinjections combined with other techniques can smooth this area.

In the lower third of the face, powerful chewing muscles are responsible for a square jaw. Relaxing these muscles over several sessions can reduce their thickness and make the face look more feminine and triangular. Hyperactivity in these muscles is often associated with teeth grinding and, in this case, Botox plays both an aesthetic and a functional role.

In the chin, the two small muscles often contract to create an “orange peel” effect, which is easily treated.

Over time, the cutaneous muscle of the neck, which is thin and very spread out, becomes damaged and the platysma muscle fibers become visible through it. These tight fibers, which can be difficult to treat surgically, can be relaxed with injections all the way along the muscle, giving way to a smooth and youthful neck.

How To Have Cosmetic ‘TWEAKMENTS’ Without Anyone Knowing…

Botulinum Toxin - Botox Injections

30% of women say they would consider having Botox or fillers, but only a small proportion have gone ahead from the fear of looking ‘done’ or ‘odd’. But it’s possible to change the future of your face and look healthier, fresher and happier, without anyone noticing you’ve had a ‘tweakment’…

Fix Your Frown Lines – Without Freezing Your Face

Botox techniques have changed, so having Botox at the FAB Clinic doesn’t mean you need to swap a frown line for a ‘startled’ or ‘shiny’ forehead.

You can opt to have ‘baby’ Botox or ‘sprinkle’ Botox, which deliver low doses via lots of tiny injections. If you have your face treated as a whole you can gain the most natural look.

Fill Your Nose to Mouth Lines – Without Looking Weird

By first putting the ‘scaffolding’ – the plumpness – back into your cheeks we can lift your skin and smooth out those lines.

At the FAB Clinic we only inject direct into your lines as the final ‘tweak’, if it’s needed.

Plump Thinning Lips – Without Getting A Trout Pout

Nobody wants ‘duck’ lips, so at the FAB Clinic we make sure we get the dose right.

For a subtle, natural look we can just replace the plumpness you have lost, no more, no less.

Soften Sagging – Without Getting A Pillow Face

If done well nobody will ever know you’ve had it done…

We use the best fillers, these are temporary and have the benefit of being dissolvable if you don’t like the result. Permanent fillers have a high risk of complications.

AVOID THE COSMETIC COWBOYS!

– Don’t go to cosmetic parties.

– Check out a doctor’s training & experience.

– Have a full facial consultation prior to treatment.

– Beware of a doctor who puts a mirror in your hand and points out your imperfections…

The 8-point Lift

Our 8-point Lift subtly reshapes and redefines your face, without the need for a surgical face lift. The 8-point lift is a new approach, and makes use of the new VYCROSS collection of hydraulic acid (HA) dermal fillers for facial revitalization and shaping.

The key areas of facial volume loss caused by ageing are the malar region (cheekbone area), tear trough and infraorbital area (concavity under the eyes and hollows in the cheeks), and the nasolabial fold (smile lines). The 8-point lift addresses all of these areas with the VYCROSS collection of fillers.

Treatment for Excessive Sweating

Did you know that Anti-wrinkle injections can be used to treat things other than wrinkles?

In fact this treatment is used to help with what can be described as uncomfortable and embarrassing – excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis). It is thought that about 1 person in 200 has some form of excessive sweating.  People with hyperhidrosis produce sweat in amounts far greater than needed to control their temperature and it seems to be triggered more by social situations rather than temperature.

Hyperhidrosis can affect the armpits, hands, feet or face but armpits are the most common issue.

When severe sweating gets in the way of certain daily activities and antiperspirants are not working, then this treatment is a great alternative.

Anti-wrinkle Injections are approved by the FDA to treat the symptoms of severe underarm sweating when medicines used on the skin do not work well enough.

Anti-wrinkle injections are injected into the affected areas to help control this condition by temporarily blocking the chemical signals from the nerves that stimulate the sweat glands. When the sweat glands do not receive chemical signals, the severe sweating stops.

What’s involved in the treatment?

Prior to the treatment: Numbing cream can be applied to the area for 30 minutes before although some patients prefer not to use this and opt for an ice pack to numb the area instead. Many patients do not require either. Please be advised that for underarm treatments, we will require the area to be freshly shaved or the hairs to be trimmed to a length of 1cm long

The treatment: The actual procedure takes about 20 to 25 minutes and is relatively straightforward. A series of small Anti-wrinkle injections are injected to the relevant areas through a very fine needle

Post treatment: Simply avoid touching, rubbing or applying anything on the treated area for 4 hours to prevent infection and spreading of the medicine. Also, it is recommended not to exercise for 24 hours after the procedure. Specific instructions will be given to you on the day of treatment by our therapist.

When will I start feeling the results and how long does it last?

You will start seeing and feeling the results at about 1-2 weeks after having the treatment.

The results will last around 6-7 months. Your symptoms will return gradually, and you will know when the time is right for another treatment.
It is recommended to have the treatment every 6 months to receive the best possible results. A plan for regular follow-up treatments to maintain the initial result can be created for you.

What if I decide to stop having the treatment?

If you decide not to have further treatment, your sweating will gradually return to its pre-treated state. The effects of the treatment will gradually wear off, and your underarm sweating will resume.

Where does the sweat go?

Your sweat doesn’t go anywhere or get backed up because the sweat simply is not produced in the treated areas. Remember, the rest of your body is free to produce moisture normally.
