Anti-Wrinkle Injections
Smooth, Refreshed & Naturally You
If you’re starting to notice fine lines or expression wrinkles, anti-wrinkle injections can help soften their appearance and give you a fresher, more rested look. At Pledge Beauty Ltd, treatments are designed to be subtle and natural – so you still look like you, just well-rested.
Book Your ConsultationWhat Are Anti-Wrinkle Injections?
Anti-wrinkle injections use a prescription-only medicine (commonly known as botulinum toxin type A) to gently relax specific facial muscles. This softens the movement that causes lines and wrinkles to appear when we frown, squint or raise our eyebrows.
When performed carefully, the result is smoother skin and a refreshed appearance, while still allowing for natural expression. At Pledge Beauty Ltd, your treatment plan is tailored to your face, your goals and the level of movement you’d like to keep.
What Can Anti-Wrinkle Injections Help With?
Depending on suitability and your treatment plan, anti-wrinkle injections may help to:
Soften Frown Lines
Gently relaxes the muscles between the brows to reduce the appearance of deep frown lines and a “tired” or “stressed” look.
Smooth Forehead Lines
Helps soften horizontal forehead lines that appear when raising the brows, creating a smoother, more youthful-looking forehead.
Reduce Crow’s Feet
Targets fine lines around the outer corners of the eyes that appear when we smile, while keeping your natural warmth and expression.
Subtle, Natural Results
Doses and treatment areas can be adjusted so results look soft and natural – not “frozen”.
Quick Treatment, Little Downtime
Appointments are usually brief, with most people returning to normal daily activities straight away.
Helps Prevent Deeper Lines
By reducing repeated movement in treated areas, anti-wrinkle injections may help slow down the formation of deeper dynamic lines over time.
Common Treatment Areas
- Horizontal forehead lines
- Frown lines between the eyebrows (often called “11s”)
- Crow’s feet around the outer eyes
- Bunny lines (lines across the nose) – where suitable
The exact areas treated and doses used will always be based on an individual consultation and prescription, and may vary from person to person.
What to Expect From Your Appointment
1. Consultation & Assessment
We start by discussing your concerns, medical history and the results you’d like to achieve. Your facial muscles and expressions are assessed so we can plan treatment that suits your features.
2. Prescription & Treatment
Anti-wrinkle injections use a prescription medicine, which must be prescribed by an appropriate, qualified prescriber. Tiny amounts of the product are then injected into specific muscles using a very fine needle.
3. Aftercare & Results
There is usually little to no downtime. You’ll receive aftercare advice, and results typically start to become visible within a few days, with a full effect around 2 weeks. Results usually last around 3–4 months, but this can vary between individuals.
Is This Treatment Right for Me?
Anti-wrinkle injections may be suitable for adults who are bothered by expression lines and want a non-surgical way to soften them. Together, we’ll decide if this treatment is appropriate for you based on your medical history, expectations and lifestyle.
Anti-wrinkle injections are not suitable for everyone. For example, they are generally not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or for people with certain medical or neurological conditions. If there is any doubt, you may be advised to speak to your GP or another healthcare professional first.
Safety & Possible Side Effects
As with any injectable treatment, there can be side effects. These are usually mild and temporary, such as slight redness, swelling, tenderness or small bruises at the injection sites.
Less common side effects can include headaches, temporary asymmetry or a temporary drooping of the eyelid or brow if the product spreads. A thorough consultation, careful injection technique and following your aftercare instructions all help to reduce these risks.
Anti-wrinkle injections do not replace medical advice. If you have any underlying medical conditions, take regular medication or have concerns about suitability, it is important to discuss this with a healthcare professional.
