Anti Wrinkle Injections (two areas)
Anti-Wrinkle Injections: Science-Backed Solutions for a Youthful Glow
As we age, our skin naturally loses its elasticity and firmness due to a decrease in collagen production and the effects of repeated facial expressions. Over time, these factors contribute to the formation of fine lines and deeper wrinkles, particularly around areas of frequent movement such as the forehead, eyes, and mouth.
Abby understands the complexities of the aging process and offer advanced anti-wrinkle injections to help counteract these visible signs of aging. These injections, commonly using Botulinum Toxin, work by temporarily relaxing the underlying muscles responsible for wrinkle formation. By inhibiting the muscle contractions that cause dynamic wrinkles—those that appear with expressions like smiling or frowning—the skin is allowed to smooth out, reducing the appearance of lines and preventing the deepening of existing wrinkles.
The science behind anti-wrinkle injections is well-established and has been trusted by millions worldwide. The treatment is highly targeted, meaning that it only affects the specific muscles injected, leaving the surrounding areas unaffected. This allows for a natural look where your expressions remain authentic but without the deep lines that can make you look older or more
Abby’s approach is to provide personalized care that considers your unique facial structure and aesthetic goals. Our experienced practitioners use precise techniques to ensure that the results are subtle, enhancing your natural beauty without creating an overdone appearance. With little to no downtime, anti-wrinkle injections are a convenient and effective solution for maintaining a youthful, radiant complexion.
Trust Abby to guide you through the process with care and professionalism. We are dedicated to helping you look and feel your best at any stage of life.

Frequently asked questions:
How do anti-wrinkle injections work?
The injections work by blocking nerve signals to specific muscles, which prevents them from contracting. This relaxation of the muscles helps to smooth out the overlying skin, reducing the appearance of wrinkles.
What areas can be treated with anti-wrinkle injections?
Anti-wrinkle injections are commonly used to treat areas such as forehead lines, frown lines between the eyebrows, and crow’s feet around the eyes. They can also be used for other areas, such as the jawline or neck, depending on individual needs.
How long does the treatment take?
The procedure is relatively quick and usually takes about 10-15 minutes. It is often referred to as a “lunch break” treatment because there is minimal downtime.
Is the treatment painful?
Most people experience only mild discomfort during the injection process. The needles used are very fine, and a topical anesthetic or ice may be applied to minimize discomfort.
How long does it take to see results?
Results typically begin to appear within 3-7 days after the treatment. The full effect can take up to two weeks to become noticeable.
How long do the results last?
The effects of anti-wrinkle injections usually last between 3 to 4 months. Regular maintenance treatments are needed to sustain the desired results.
Are there any side effects?
Common side effects can include mild swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection sites. Rarely, patients may experience headaches or temporary drooping of the eyelids. Most side effects are temporary and resolve within a few days.
Who is a good candidate for anti-wrinkle injections?
Good candidates are generally adults who are looking to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and have no contraindications to the treatment. A consultation with a qualified provider will help determine if you are an appropriate candidate.
Are anti-wrinkle injections safe?
When administered by a trained and experienced professional, anti-wrinkle injections are considered safe. It’s important to have the treatment done by a licensed and qualified practitioner to minimize risks.
Can I return to normal activities immediately after treatment?
Yes, most people can resume their normal activities right after the treatment. However, it’s advisable to avoid strenuous exercise, excessive heat, or lying down flat for a few hours to prevent potential complications.
How much do anti-wrinkle injections cost?
The cost can vary depending the area being treated, and the amount of product used. Prices are typically quoted per unit or per treatment area. A consultation will provide a more accurate cost estimate.
Can anti-wrinkle injections be combined with other treatments?
Yes, anti-wrinkle injections are often combined with other treatments like dermal fillers or skincare regimens to enhance overall results. A consultation will help determine the best treatment plan for your needs.
What should I do before and after my treatment?
Before treatment, avoid alcohol and blood-thinning medications to reduce the risk of bruising. After treatment, follow any specific aftercare instructions provided by your practitioner, such as avoiding rubbing the treated area or lying down for a few hours.
