Anti-Wrinkle injections

Anti-wrinkle injections by Dr. Michelle temporarily relax muscles by blocking the release of chemicals involved in normal muscle contraction. This relaxation can improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles associated with muscle movement (e.g. frown or forehead lines). Anti-wrinkle injections can also soften and prevent the formation of resting lines. Other uses for anti-wrinkle injections involve softening the upwards or downwards ‘pull’ of a facial muscle if it is resulting in a distracting facial feature (e.g. gummy smile or downturned mouth corners).

Common anti-wrinkle treatment areas include frown lines, forehead lines, crows feet lines, Nefertiti Neck Lift (platysmal bands) (neck), gummy smile, lip flip, brow lift, chin dimpling, downturned mouth corners and bunny (nose) lines.

Anti-wrinkle injections can also help with Hyperhidrosis/Excessive Sweating and Bruxism (teeth clenching/grinding) or square jawline.
