Anti-ageing Injectable Treatments In Birmingham
How are Anti Wrinkle Injections Best Used?
Wrinkles best suited to this treatment are those caused by muscle use, i.e. expression wrinkles. Wrinkles between the eyebrows, horizontal wrinkles of the forehead and wrinkles around the eyes can all be treated with anti-wrinkle injections. It normally only takes a few minutes to administer the ant-wrinkle injections, as the needles used are very fine, and thankfully it is not usually painful. At Virtue Skin Clinic only our qualified nurses will preform this procedure.
How long do the effects last?
The length of time that the effects of the anti wrinkle injections will last for differs from patient to patient. Initial injections usually last between four to six months. The interval between each treatment thereafter usually increases over time. Book a free consultation with Virtue Hair and Skin Clinics.

Keeping your skin protected from the sun is the best prevention for ageing skin. Wear a wide-brimmed hat and plenty of sunscreen to block out harmful UV rays; this will help to preserve your skin’s natural collagen supplies for longer. Anti-ageing injectables can also be used to relax the facial muscles to help prevent lines caused by repetitive facial movements. Book a FREE consultation for anti-ageing injectables with a doctor or nurse prescriber, they can help to advise the best treatment for you to combat forehead lines.
You may begin to notice the first signs of forehead lines in your late twenties and early thirties as faint lines begin to appear. With time, these lines gradually deepen and become increasingly prominent until they are visible even when you aren’t raising your eyebrows or frowning. Although age makes them worse, some people have forehead lines before they have any other signs of ageing skin.
The best way to postpone the appearance of laughter lines is to use an SPF to protect your skin from harmful UV rays, avoid smoking, drink plenty of water and follow a good skincare routine, particularly one with a deep-acting moisturiser containing anti-ageing ingredients such as peptides and vitamin A.
