What Are Anti Wrinkle Neurotoxin Injections?

Anti wrinkle injections work by temporarily relaxing specific facial muscles.

By reducing repetitive contraction, dynamic lines like frown lines, forehead creases, and crow’s feet soften and become less visible. These injections act not by filling, but by modulating muscle movement. Over time, the surrounding skin benefits from reduced stress and improved appearance.

Results begin to show in 3-7 days, with full effects around 10-14 days.

What can be treated?

Relaxing specific facial muscles softens dynamic lines; the same prescription approach also treats jaw clenching, facial slimming, neck bands and excessive sweating.

A Considered, Natural Approach

Our philosophy is simple: enhancement, not transformation.

We take time to listen, assess your facial anatomy and skin behaviour, and to create a treatment plan that respects your expression and personality. Because wrinkle relaxing treatments can look beautiful when used thoughtfully, not frozen or artificial.

What to Expect from Your Visit

In your initial consultation, we’ll discuss your concerns, expectations, and medical history.

We’ll explain how our treatments work to relax specific muscle groups gently, reducing dynamic wrinkles while preserving your ability to express. Many patients begin to see subtle improvement within days, with full effect around two weeks. Results typically last several months, but each person is unique, and follow up sessions are adjusted accordingly.

At our London clinic, we welcome patients from Marylebone, Harley Street, Mayfair, and beyond. Whether you’re taking your first step into aesthetics or have experience, our goal is to ensure you feel informed, respected, safe and confident throughout your journey.

Longevity, Maintenance & When to Start

Results typically last 3 to 6 months, depending on factors like muscle strength, metabolism, and lifestyle.

Many patients start in their late 20s or early 30s for preventive treatment, especially those with expressive faces. Over time, regular use may reduce muscle strength and extend intervals between treatments.

Maintenance sessions are recommended before lines fully return, for smoother continuity.

Common Treatment Areas

At Dr. Paul Elgey Aesthetic Clinic, we prioritise not only achieving your desired lip enhancement but also ensuring the long-term health and appearance of your lips. Proper aftercare is critical to ensuring optimal results and a smooth recovery process. Here’s everything you need to know about looking after your lips post-treatment.

Anti Wrinkle Injections FAQs

If you’re curious about the procedure, aftercare, or potential side effects, this section is designed to give you a clear understanding of what to expect.

Botulinum toxin injections are used to soften lines caused by repeated facial movement. Over time, expressions such as frowning, smiling, and squinting create dynamic creases that can become etched into the skin. By carefully modulating specific muscle activity, we reduce the appearance of these lines while preserving natural expression. All treatments are performed by Dr Paul Elgey, with a focus on subtlety, facial balance, and long-term skin quality. Results typically begin to appear within several days and last approximately three to four months, depending on the treatment area and individual response.

How quickly will I see results?

Initial softening often appears in 3–7 days, with full effect by around day 10–14.

How long do the effects last?

Generally 3 to 6 months, depending on lifestyle, frequency of injections and dose.

Does it hurt?

Most patients report mild discomfort. We use micro-fine needles and can apply numbing cream if needed.

Can I combine anti wrinkle procedures with filler or other treatments?

Absolutely. Many patients combine anti-wrinkle injections with fillers, skin boosters, lasers or threads in a holistic plan.

Is there downtime?

No significant downtime. Avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol, and lying flat for 4–6 hours post-treatment.

Who is not a candidate?

Pregnant or breastfeeding women, individuals with neuromuscular disorders, or those with hypersensitivity to ingredients. Full medical review ensures safety.

Can results be reversed?

Neurotoxin effects wear naturally with time. There’s no “antidote” in aesthetic doses, but function returns gradually.

Will I lose facial expression?

When done conservatively, movements remain natural. Our approach always aims to preserve your individual expressions.

Are anti-wrinkle injections safe?

Yes, in experienced hands. We follow strict protocols, use approved products, and have emergency protocols in place.

Are there any risks or side effects?

When performed by a qualified medical professional, anti-wrinkle injections have a strong safety profile. Common / mild side effects: Redness or tiny pinprick marks Mild bruising Temporary swelling Minor headaches (rare) Less common / avoidable risks: Drooping eyebrows or eyelids (ptosis) Asymmetry Over-relaxation: unnatural smoothness (should be avoided) In rare cases, diffusion to adjacent muscles causing mild weakness Contraindications include: Pregnancy or breastfeeding Neuromuscular conditions (e.g. myasthenia gravis) Known allergy to neurotoxin components Active infection at injection site Your consultation will include a complete medical review and informed consent process.
