Anti-Wrinkle Injections Overview
Anti-wrinkle injections use a purified form of botulinum toxin to temporarily relax targeted facial muscles, softening dynamic wrinkles caused by repeated movement. They are most commonly used on the forehead, around the eyes (crow's feet), and between the brows (frown lines), and can also address more advanced concerns such as a gummy smile, dimpled chin, or downturned corners of the mouth.
At The Ghanem Clinic, treatment is led by experienced medical practitioners who plan every injection around your facial anatomy, expression patterns, and aesthetic goals. The result is a smoother, more refreshed appearance that preserves your natural movement, never altering the face you recognise.
Choosing Anti-Wrinkle Injections
Anti-wrinkle injections suit patients in their late twenties through to their sixties and beyond, whether the goal is preventive softening of early expression lines or correction of more established dynamic wrinkles. They also pair well with complementary injectable treatments for a fully refined result. Your consultation establishes the right approach for your face, lifestyle and long-term plan.
Anti-Wrinkle Injections vs. Dermal Fillers
The two treatments are often confused but do very different things. Anti-wrinkle injections relax the muscles that cause expression lines. Dermal fillers add volume to restore contour and structure. Many patients use both in combination: anti-wrinkle injections to soften movement-related lines, fillers to address volume loss. Your practitioner will recommend the right balance during your consultation.
What it Treats and What it Delivers
What it Treats
Forehead lines, crow's feet around the eyes, and frown lines between the brows are the most common indications. Anti-wrinkle injections can also address bunny lines on the nose, a gummy smile, dimpled chin, downturned mouth corners, neck bands, and jaw tension associated with teeth grinding.
Benefits
Patients enjoy softer expression lines, a rested and refreshed appearance, and the confidence of a treatment that preserves natural movement. With no surgery, no incisions and no downtime, results develop gradually over 1–2 weeks and last 3–4 months, with regular maintenance keeping the look consistent.
Additional Treatments
Anti-wrinkle injections are frequently combined with dermal fillers for volume restoration, skin quality enhancement injectables for texture and tone, or advanced skin rejuvenation for pigmentation and clarity. Your practitioner will design the right combination during your consultation.
Your Anti-Wrinkle Injection Journey
Initial Consultation
Your journey begins with a private consultation at our Wimpole Street clinic. Your practitioner reviews your medical history, examines your facial expressions and muscle patterns, and discusses your goals to ensure anti-wrinkle injections are the right approach for you.
Personalised Plan
A bespoke treatment plan is mapped out, identifying the precise injection points, units required, and any complementary treatments that would refine the overall result.
The Treatment
The skin is cleansed and marked with reference points. A series of small, precisely placed injections is delivered using a very fine needle. The entire treatment typically takes 15–30 minutes, with most patients describing only minor discomfort.
Aftercare and Review
You receive tailored aftercare guidance to support optimal results. A two-week review is offered to assess outcomes, refine areas if needed, and plan your next maintenance session at the right interval.
What to Expect
Anti-wrinkle injections are designed to fit easily into a busy week, with no downtime and minimal disruption to your routine.
Preparation
You may be advised to avoid alcohol, blood-thinning medication and intensive exercise for 24 hours before your appointment to reduce bruising risk. No other preparation is needed.
The Treatment
The appointment takes 15–30 minutes. After cleansing and marking, your practitioner administers a series of small injections. Most patients describe a quick pinching sensation rather than pain.
Recovery and Results
You can return to work or normal activity immediately. Avoid touching the treated area for four hours and lying flat for the rest of the day. Softening of lines begins within 3–5 days, with full results visible by two weeks.
