Anti-Wrinkle Injections
Anti-Wrinkle Injections
Anti-Wrinkle injections are composed of a natural purified protein, which, when injected into specific facial muscles, relaxes the muscles that cause expression lines/wrinkles, creating a more youthful, relaxed and refreshed appearance.
They work by temporarily blocking the nerve impulse to the muscles, resulting in their relaxation.
They are suitable for both adult women and men between ages of 20 to 65 who wish to reduce wrinkles and smooth expression lines to give a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance.
Anti-Wrinkle injections are the most commonly performed cosmetic procedure in the world as they are safe, effective, affordable, non-invasive, non-surgical, quick, with minimal discomfort, side effects and virtually no down time.
