How do anti-wrinkle injections work?

The underlying cause of dynamic wrinkles is the repeated contraction of facial muscles, such as in frowning, squinting or smiling, which causes the skin to crease. Initially, these wrinkles are only visible during movement but gradually become more pronounced and visible even at rest. Factors like aging, sun exposure, genetics, and lifestyle habits can contribute to the development of dynamic wrinkles. To address these wrinkles, anti-wrinkle injections are used.

These injections contain neurotoxins that temporarily blocks the nerve signals that trigger muscle contractions. This relaxes the muscles and prevents them from contracting forcefully, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and smoothing out the skin. The effects of anti-wrinkle injections typically last for several months, after which the muscles gradually regain their normal function.

What happens during the procedure?

Numb cream maybe applied, as per the patient’s preference, to ensure minimal discomfort. Once the numb cream has taken effect, the area is thoroughly cleaned and marked. The neurotoxin is diluted in saline and injected using a fine needle directly into the neuromuscular tissue. The required number of injections is influenced by the treatment area’s size. The treatment itself is quick and hardly lasts 15-20 minutes depending on the indication being treated. Patients can resume regular activities immediately after the treatment.

What are the indications treated by anti-wrinkle injections?

Anti-wrinkle injections offer a minimally invasive, non-surgical option for:

Dynamic wrinkles – These injections are highly effective in reducing the appearance of dynamic wrinkles caused by repetitive facial muscle movements, such as:
- forehead lines
- frown lines between the eyebrows (also called eleven lines)
- crow’s feet around the eyes
Brow lift – Injections can be strategically administered to lift the eyebrows, creating a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
Lip lines: Injections can be utilized to smooth vertical lip lines resulting in a smoother appearance.
Facial contouring: Injections can be employed to contour and shape the face by relaxing specific muscles, such as the masseter muscles in the jawline or the platysma muscles in the neck.
Hyperhidrosis: Injections can be used to treat excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) in areas like the underarms, palms, and soles of the feet.

When will the results be visible?

Patients can see results in one to 3 days after the treatment. As the injections take effect, patient can notice reduction in appearance of wrinkles along with smoother skin. The full effect can continue to improve over the following weeks.

Aftercare instructions for anti-wrinkle injections:

For 24 hours, avoid massaging or rubbing the treated areas. Also avoid intense exercise in this duration. Avoid lying down for 2 to 4 hours following the treatment.

What are the possible side effects of anti-wrinkle injections?

Patients may have some temporary side effects such as bruising, headaches, eyelid drooping, mild pain and swelling around the injection site. These side effects will clear up in 24-48 hours.
