BOTOX ® is used for both aesthetic and therapeutic treatments.
Botox is a safe and effective treatment for reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. As one of the most popular cosmetic injectables, it works by temporarily relaxing muscles in targeted areas, such as frown lines and forehead lines, to smooth out unwanted creases.
With over two decades of proven results, botox injections are the go-to solution for combatting the visible signs of aging.
Botulinum toxin injections are a popular and safe way to improve your youthful appearance by reducing the appearance of facial lines and wrinkles. Our expert team specialises in botox and cosmetic injectables, helping you achieve smooth, youthful skin with real, noticeable effects.
Whether you're looking to reduce forehead lines or address other wrinkle treatment areas, we provide personalised care and treatment benefits tailored to your unique needs. Real skin, real results.
Typically, anti-wrinkle injections are performed;
Botulinum toxin can also be useful for certain medical conditions such as hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating in the armpits), prevention of chronic headaches and migraines, and blepharospasm (eye twitching).
Your journey to a refreshed appearance begins with a consultation at La Pelle, where one of our experienced practitioners at our cosmetic clinic will discuss your concerns and determine the best treatment plan for your needs. The Botox procedure itself is quick and minimally invasive, typically taking just 15-30 minutes.
At La Pelle, we prioritise your comfort and safety. Our clinic is dedicated to delivering safe treatments with expert precision, ensuring every injection site is handled with care. Our team provides comprehensive treatment advice, guiding you every step of the way for optimal outcomes.
You will start seeing results within 3-4 days, and full results at 2 weeks post treatment. Occasionally, you may need to come back for a top-up treatment to certain areas (usually on the forehead).
If this is for a pre-wedding treatment, we highly recommend that you come in at least 4-6 weeks prior to your wedding day, to allow us time to provide any necessary fine adjustments.
Results for facial treatments typically last 3-4 months, sometimes longer. There is individual variability due to various factors. Wrinkles that are deep and longstanding may need a few treatments to soften, and may not completely resolve.
For certain treatments where higher units are used, for example in the armpits for excessive sweating, the effects usually last 6-9 months.
At La Pelle, we tailor Botox treatments to suit your individual needs and desired outcomes. Some of the key benefits of Botox include:
Your wrinkles and fine lines will return to their original [pre-treatment] state. We recommend keeping on top of the treatments on a regular basis.
Minor post-treatment symptoms may include redness around the injection sites (this typically resolves within 10 min), bruising (rare), or headache. Allergic reactions to Botulinum toxin or its constituents are very rare – rest assured that our clinic is fully equipped to manage this.
