Is Anti-wrinkle injections safe?
It has been used medically for over two decades with a proven track record. The dosage we use for facial rejuvenation is very low therefore the level of safety is extremely high. An experienced practitioner would know the facial anatomy and know specific areas to target.
How long does the results last for?
It depends on the individual and the area treated. On average, it lasts approximately for 3 to 6 months. You will experience a gradual gain in muscle movement over this period. After several painless injections, however, most people find that the effects persist for longer. Your treatment will be carefully monitored, and the interval between treatments adjusted accordingly.
