Anti-wrinkle injectables are made from a drug made called Botulinum Toxin (Botox®) which has been FDA approved and used for both medical and cosmetic purposes for over 20 years with no known adverse effects.BOTOX® has been used for many years in both cosmetic and medical treatments. It is the most popular non-surgical treatment in the UK and in the world by far.
Botulinum toxin injections can last for several months (3 - 4 months on average). Top ups will be required after this time to maintain desired effects. The effects of treatment depend on each client's response, with repeat treatments have been shown to have a longer effect.Most clients continue to have treatment regularly and book appointments every 12 weeks to ensure results are maintained.

Most side effects are short-lived and mild, the most common being mild bruising to the site of the injection. Some patients also report mild headaches shortly after the treatment, but these usually subside within 24 hours.

At RHIAESTHETICS, we work alongside a prescriber to ensure you receive expert care. A consultation is necessary for you to meet and discuss the areas you would like treated, facial mapping and for myself and the prescriber to decide whether you are a suitable client with no contraindications likely to cause concern for the procedure. Prescriptions last for 6 months. Most clients have anti-wrinkle injections every 3-4 months so your prescription will be active for this period, however a consultation and new prescription will be required each time you have anti-wrinkle injections after the 6 month period.
Occasionally the relaxation of the muscles can have counter-effects, for example those who have masseter injections for facial slimming may gradually form a 'double chin' due to the muscle not being used to tighten the area.At RHIAESTHETICS we strongly advise researching your chosen procedure(s) and ask your practitioner any questions you may have to make an informed decision.Rhiannon is always happy to answer your questions!

Botulinum Toxin (Botox®) is a non-surgical procedure that is well known for its effects of smoothing facial lines and wrinkles. It works by relaxing the muscles that cause lines and wrinkles to form in the skin.
Quick procedureMinimally invasiveRelatively quick results; within a matter of daysTreatment can be tailored to suit individual needsIf you have injections regularly results will gradually last longerCan be used with other aesthetic procedures to improve and prolong the resultsNot permanent; if you decide it's not for you simply wait for the effects of the injections to wear off
Botulinum Toxin (Botox®) may be used to soften facial lines in the following facial areasFrown lines between the eyebrowsHorizontal lines across the foreheadLines around the eyes (Crows feet)Lines across the bridge of the nose (Bunny lines)Lines around the mouthChinNeckIt is also very successful at treating excessive perspiration under the arms (hyperhidrosis).
When you concentrate, squint or frown, the muscles in your face contract. After years of frequent contraction combined with other environmental and lifestyle factors, lines and wrinkles will form. Anti-wrinkle injectables work by interrupting the process of messages being sent from the brain via nerves to the muscles.
A very small amount of Botulinum Toxin is injected into the treatment area on the face using a small needle to keep discomfort to a minimum.Helen is a very gentle Practitioner and therefore you can be assured that you will be well looked after and that your treatment will be as relaxed as possible and never rushed.
Absolutely. The infamous 'frozen look many people associate with anti-wrinkle injectables is only caused when too much toxin is administered into one area.A properly qualified practitioner will only target small specific muscles that are responsible for unwanted lines and wrinkles only. This means normal facial expressions such as smiling, frowning or looking surprised will be unaffected.During your consultation I will talk you through how the treatment can be used for subtle effects, so no one need know your secret.
Botulinum toxin prevents facial muscle movement which means regular injections can help to stop the signs of ageing by suppressing muscle movements that cause lines and wrinkles.
Depending on how many areas are being treated allow up to 30 minutes.
The effect starts to work in about 2-5 days, with the greatest effect being seen after about 2 weeks.
The cost of your treatment will depend on the number of areas treated. We will examine your facial muscles along with their strength in order to ensure that the correct combination of muscles are injected with the right dose.All pricing can be found on the online booking & price list tab.
