Occasionally an adjustment is required 14 days after your treatment to give your antiwrinkle treatment time to settle. If you have any concerns, please contact me via email or telephone as above.

Anti-wrinkle injections are a temporary procedure and have different effects on every individual. Your treatment typically lasts for 2-4 months dependent upon your health, lifestyle and age. After your first treatment you may find that the effects wear off slightly quicker than consecutive treatments. This is normal. As Botox works on the chemicals in the muscles, gradually over time it builds up resistance and creates a longer lasting effect. However, this will take time and your first treatment may only last 2 months. If you maintain your treatment appointments with the frequency recommended (normally every 3-4 months), the duration of each treatment result may last long.

The use of oral or topical Arnica Montana may also help to reduce bruising and swelling. • If you are having a lip treatment the initial swelling may last longer. This can last for 7–14 days and the lips may look somewhat uneven during this time. Therefore, the results directly after the treatment should not be seen as the final result. • If you are having filler in the cheeks it is common for the area to feel tender and possibly harder than usual for a couple of weeks. • Avoid touching the treated area within 6 hours following treatment.
