There are a range of different non-surgical treatments that are designed to address eye line and wrinkles. We offer a range of different treatment options, which includes the use of muscle relaxant products that are injected into the areas of concern. This treatment uses a small number of extremely fine needles to inject a tiny volume of the product. The discomfort experienced is minimal, and a cold pack can be used to reduce discomfort if necessary. The procedure takes only a few minutes and typically requires two to three days to begin relaxing the treated areas and reducing facial lines. The maximum effect of the products can be seen one to two weeks post-treatment.
Eye lines and wrinkles are primarily formed through the repetitive contraction of the muscles around the eyes and other surrounding muscles. We use products that inhibit the neurotransmitters, thereby preventing the eye muscles from contracting which will result in a visible reduction in the appearance of crow’s feet.
Typically, after the initial few sessions, results from the treatment last approximately two to three months. With consistent treatments, however, the effects can extend over a longer period as the targeted muscles become retrained.
If you decide to stop the treatments, your muscles will gradually return to their normal function, and your wrinkles will revert to their original state—they will not worsen.
You can generally resume your normal activities shortly after the treatment. However, it’s advisable to avoid strenuous exercise and refrain from massaging the treated area for the first 24 hours post-treatment to ensure optimal results.
