Benefits
Many of the lines appearing on the face are the result of the facial muscles contracting and relaxing. Anti-wrinkle injections are a great way to soften and smooth these dynamic wrinkles by temporarily relaxing these muscles.
Maisam Fazel can also use anti-wrinkle injections to sculpt the face, by changing the projection of the nose tip or slim the jawline.
Anti-wrinkle injections can help improve the following areas:
- Frown lines across the brow and in between the brows
- Droopy eyebrows
- Crow’s feet around the eyes
- Excess projection of the nose
- Bulky jawline
- Downturned mouth crease
- Creased chin
- Neck bands
- To reduce underarm sweating

Expectations
Anti-wrinkle injections are a fantastic anti-ageing treatment but choosing a highly experienced clinician is essential. Maisam Fazel’s gentle technique will produce a beautiful and subtle rejuvenation while maintaining natural expression and movement.
Maisam Fazel carefully plans where the anti-wrinkle injections are placed after assessment of a patient’s anatomy and aesthetic desires. The treatment itself typically takes only 15 to 20 minutes. Local anaesthetic is not usually needed as there is minimal discomfort.
Results are not immediate, but over the next 5 to 7 days, wrinkles begin to smooth and soften.
