Think of what happens when you fold a piece of paper over and over in the same way? The fold lines seem to become a permanent fixture on the paper, right?
The same applies to expression lines. It’s highly likely that throughout your life you’ve been giving your facial muscles a pretty good workout – furrowing your brow, squinting your eyes or pursing your lips – and the result if often the development of such lines via a similar principle.
An expression line occurs from repeated movements made by muscles in your skin and looks like a small crease on the skin’s outer surface. The crease represents a loss of collagen and elastic tissue. But all is not lost.
It is now possible to minimise expression lines by reducing or inhibiting the neuromuscular movements that cause them.
The problem
Frown lines across the forehead, lines between the eyebrows, crows feet around the eyes.
The solution
Muscle relaxing products, such as Botox.
The treatment
After a thorough assessment of your face and the way you use expressions we inject a minute amount of muscle relaxant into the muscles that cause the deep expression lines.
The results
The face looks more relaxed and younger and lines and wrinkles are smoother. Depending on the person, the results last between 3-6 months.
