What Are Anti-Wrinkle Injections?
Anti-wrinkle injections use botulinum toxin (commonly known as Botox) to temporarily relax the muscles that cause expression lines and wrinkles. When these muscles relax, the overlying skin smooths out, reducing the appearance of lines and creating a more youthful, refreshed look.
This is one of the most popular cosmetic treatments worldwide—safe, effective, and proven over decades of use. Results look natural when performed by experienced practitioners who understand facial anatomy and aesthetic balance.
How It Works
Botulinum toxin temporarily blocks nerve signals to targeted facial muscles. This prevents them from contracting with full force, which:
- Softens existing wrinkles caused by repeated expressions
- Prevents new wrinkles from forming or deepening
- Creates a smoother, more youthful appearance
- Doesn't affect your ability to make natural expressions
Treatment Areas
Forehead Lines
Horizontal lines across the forehead that appear when you raise your eyebrows or look surprised. Very common in men due to expressive facial movements.
Frown Lines (Glabellar)
Vertical lines between the eyebrows that create an angry, tired, or stressed appearance. Often the most impactful area to treat for men.
Crow's Feet
Lines radiating from the outer corners of eyes when you smile or squint. Softening these creates a more youthful, rested appearance.
Bunny Lines
Diagonal lines on the nose when you scrunch your face. Less common but can be treated if bothersome.
Brow Lift
Strategic placement to subtly lift heavy or drooping brows for a more awake, youthful look without surgery.
Masseter (Jawline Slimming)
Relaxing the jaw muscle to create a slimmer, more defined jawline and reduce teeth grinding (bruxism).
Key Benefits
✓ Look Younger & More Refreshed
Reduce the visible signs of aging—look 5-10 years younger by smoothing deep expression lines and preventing new ones from forming.
✓ Appear More Approachable
Frown lines can make you look angry, tired, or stressed even when you're not. Softening these creates a friendlier, more approachable appearance—crucial for professional and social situations.
✓ Boost Confidence
Feel better about your appearance in meetings, on dates, and in everyday life. Many men report improved self-confidence after treatment.
✓ Natural-Looking Results
When done correctly, anti-wrinkle treatments look natural—not frozen or overdone. You still look like yourself, just refreshed and less tired.
✓ Preventative Benefits
Starting in your 30s or 40s can prevent deep wrinkles from forming, meaning you'll age more gracefully and need less aggressive treatment later.
✓ Quick & Convenient
Treatment takes 10-20 minutes. No downtime—return to work immediately. Results last 3-4 months typically.

Your practitioner will:

- Discuss your concerns and aesthetic goals
- Recommend which areas to treat for optimal, balanced results
- Explain realistic outcomes and show examples
- Answer all questions—no obligation to proceed
The Treatment (10-20 minutes)
- Cleansing: Face is cleaned and prepped
- Marking: Injection points are identified based on your unique facial anatomy

Most men report minimal discomfort—just tiny pinpricks. No numbing needed for most people.
Immediately After
- Tiny injection marks (fade within hours)

⏰ Patience required: Don't expect instant results. Botox takes 7-14 days to reach full effect. If you have an important event, book at least 2 weeks in advance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will I look frozen or unnatural?
No, not when performed correctly. The goal is to soften lines while maintaining natural movement and expression. You'll still be able to smile, frown, and show emotion—you'll just have fewer wrinkles when you do. Experienced practitioners use conservative dosing to ensure natural results.
Does it hurt?
Minimal discomfort. Most men describe it as tiny pinpricks—much easier than expected. No numbing needed for most people. The whole process takes 10-20 minutes.
When will I see results?
Effects begin in 3-7 days, with full results visible at 10-14 days. Don't judge your results immediately after treatment—be patient.
How long does it last?
Typically 3-4 months for most areas. Some men find it lasts longer with repeated treatments (up to 5-6 months). Regular maintenance keeps results consistent.
Can people tell I've had it done?
Not if done well. You'll look refreshed and less tired, but people won't be able to pinpoint why. Most will just think you look younger, more rested, or "better" somehow.
Is it safe?
Very safe when performed by qualified practitioners. Botulinum toxin for wrinkles has been used for decades with an excellent safety record. Serious complications are extremely rare.
What if I don't like the results?
Effects are temporary—they'll fade naturally over 3-4 months. If you're unhappy, simply don't return for maintenance. Unlike surgery or permanent fillers, you're not committed long-term.
Will my wrinkles get worse if I stop?
No. If you stop treatment, your wrinkles will gradually return to their pre-treatment state over 4-6 months. They won't be worse than before—you'll just lose the improvement.
Should I start in my 30s or wait until I'm older?
Many practitioners recommend starting in your 30s or early 40s as a preventative measure. Regular treatment can prevent deep wrinkles from forming, meaning you'll age more gracefully and need less aggressive treatment later.
How much does it cost?
From £150 per area. Most men treat 2-3 areas for balanced results. Exact pricing discussed during your free consultation based on your goals.
