At the Skin & Laser Clinic we use botox by allergan, azzalure and relfydess by galderma for our wrinkle-smoothing treatments. This is because they have been proven over the years to be safe, effective.
Wrinkles and lines on the face are typically caused by muscle movement when we frown, raise our eyebrows, smile and laugh. A great solution to help improve these lines is the use of products such as botulinum toxin or Botox as it is commonly known.
In wrinkle-smoothing treatments, a diluted solution of botulinum toxin is injected into small muscles in and around the face designed to temporarily relax them. This improves the appearance of moderate to severe facial lines and wrinkles by smoothing and softening them. Accurate targeting of the muscles can be achieved to minimise the vertical lines in between the eyebrows , lateral lines on the forehead and lines around the crows feet. Other areas on the face and neck can also be treated.
You may want a frozen look or something more natural which we discuss as part of your initial free consultation.
Allergan botox and azzalure treatment is very effective and lasts for 3 to 4 months. These injections are a popular and safe method of achieving smoother, wrinkle-free, younger-looking skin.
RELFYDESS
Relfydess is Developed by Galderma with innovative PEARL™ Technology, this next-generation neuromodulator offers patients faster results and longer-lasting results compared to traditional neurotoxin treatments.
What Makes Relfydess Different?
READY-TO-USE LIQUID FORMULATION
Unlike traditional botulinum toxins that require reconstitution before use, Relfydess comes pre-prepared as a liquid. This eliminates preparation time, minimises variability in dosing, and enhances treatment consistency.
PEARL™ Technology is an advanced stabilisation process that maintains the integrity and potency of the active molecule. This revolutionary technology reduces or eliminates molecular denaturation during manufacturing, resulting in a purer, more stable product that requires fewer production steps and less manipulation
Treatment Timeline
Relfydess offers an extended duration of effect, lasting up to 6-9 months, which means fewer visits throughout the year to maintain your results. You’ll begin to notice the effects within 1-2 days of treatment, with the full aesthetic benefit becoming apparent within 7-14 days.
The reduction of sweating (Hyperhidrosis)
Botulinum toxin injections can also be used to reduce excessive sweating for armpits, hands, feet, groin and forehead. This treatment typically gives longer benefits of approximately 6-12 months.
Migraines
Small Doses of toxin can also be places in Specific areas of the face and head to help reduce migraine attacks.
