Botox™
This simple cosmetic treatment can dramatically soften, and even remove, facial expression lines, frown lines on your forehead and between your eyebrows and crow’s feet.
It is also used for treating migraines and the problem of excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), especially under the arms, hands and backs.
FAQs
How often do I need the BOTOX™ Treatment?
Treatments in the first year tend to last three to four months. It is recommended that you book your next appointment 4 months after the first treatment in order to keep up the appearance you want. If you decide not to continue with BOTOX™ treatment, your face will gradually go back to its pre-treatment appearance.
How will I feel during the treatment?
Injection of Botulinum Toxin is a relatively non-invasive facial rejuvenation treatment which is less harsh than many cosmetic surgery procedures. Topical anaesthetic can be applied to the areas to be treated, which means the procedure is usually painless. You may feel a very slight scratch as the fine needle is applied to the areas you want to target
Does Botox™ work immediately?
In general, you should notice some effect of the BOTOX™ Cosmetic within 4-7 days of it being injected. However, this time may be shorter in some individuals. The complete effect is generally seen by 14 days after the date of the injection. You will be booked in for a follow up appointment after two weeks. Your practitioner will review the results and in some cases may give a small top up to complete the treatment.
Consultation
An initial consultation will be necessary at which your medical details will be discussed along with a recommendation as to the appropriateness and site of botulinum toxin injections or other related treatments. The actual treatment can then be booked at a later date. All clients have their treatment with Mr Gateley, Dr Kasim Usmani or one of our experienced Nurse Prescribers as BOTOX™ is a prescription only medicine.
