Soften Fine Lines and Wrinkles.
Wrinkle Aesthetics is non-surgical, non-invasive treatment for smoothing and rejuvenating your skin. This procedure targets fine lines, wrinkles, and expression lines, helping to restore a softer and refreshed appearance.
Wrinkle aesthetics consultations and treatments are provided by Dr Danushi and registered nurses, who will assess your aesthetic goals and create a tailored treatment plan just for you.
How it Works
Wrinkle aesthetics treatments work by carefully and precisely administering a specialised formula into targeted facial muscles to soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This process results in a smoother, refreshed appearance, enhancing your natural beauty without altering your unique expressions.
Wrinkle aesthetics are suitable for a wide range of skin types, offering a minimally invasive solution with no downtime. They can benefit patients of any age or gender. These treatments work by reducing muscle movement - they do not fill lines that appear when the face is at rest. For static skin creases, a different approach is required. However, starting wrinkle aesthetic treatments early, when you first notice fine lines at rest, can help prevent the development of deeper static lines over time.

What to Expect
Before treatment begins, Our medical staff follow a thorough protocol to ensure your safety and comfort. We will discuss your goals, assess your facial muscle activity, and determine the optimal treatment plan for your unique needs.
How Wrinkle Softening Treatments Work
Wrinkle softening injections are designed to reduce the appearance of ‘dynamic’ lines—those caused by repeated facial expressions such as frowning, smiling, or squinting. Common areas treated include forehead lines, crow’s feet around the eyes, and frown lines. These treatments can also address lines in the lower face, improving expressions that may unintentionally convey emotions such as sadness, tiredness, or frustration.
Muscle softening treatments can even offer benefits beyond aesthetics, such as reducing facial pain, slimming overactive chewing muscles, and improving the appearance of prominent neck bands that can pull down on the face.
During Treatment
The treatment itself is usually quick and relatively comfortable. Most patients describe the sensation as a slight pinprick, and the entire process typically takes no more than 15-20 minutes. The procedure is minimally invasive with no downtime required.
After Treatment
Post-treatment, there may be some mild swelling or redness at the injection sites, but this usually resolves within a few hours. You can resume normal activities immediately, although we advise avoiding strenuous exercise and facial massages for the next 24 hours to ensure the best results.
Over the following days, you’ll begin to notice the softening of lines and a smoother, more refreshed appearance. Full results are typically seen within 7-14 days, with improvements lasting for several months.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are wrinkle aesthetics?
Wrinkle aesthetics are a non-surgical treatment that helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. They work by temporarily relaxing the muscles responsible for wrinkles, leaving the skin looking smoother and more youthful.
How long do the results last?
The effects of wrinkle aesthetics usually last between 3 to 6 months. Over time, the treated muscles regain their movement, and wrinkles may appear less softened, requiring follow-up treatments to maintain the results.
Are wrinkle aesthetics safe?
Wrinkle aesthetics are generally considered safe. Side effects, such as temporary bruising, redness, or swelling at the injection site, are usually mild and resolve quickly.
How long does the treatment take?
The procedure itself is relatively quick, typically taking around 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the areas being treated.
When will I see results?
Most people begin to see the effects of the injections within 2 to 7 days, with full results typically visible in about 2 weeks.
Can wrinkle aesthetics prevent wrinkles?
Yes, when used consistently, wrinkle aesthetics can prevent new wrinkles from forming by limiting repetitive muscle movements that cause lines to develop.
Are there any alternatives to wrinkle aesthetics?
Yes, alternatives include dermal aesthetics, laser treatments, microneedling, HIFU and chemical peels. Each option addresses wrinkles differently, so it’s important to consult to determine the best treatment for your goals.
Suitability
Can anyone get wrinkle aesthetics?
Wrinkle aesthetics are suitable for most adults and genders who wish to reduce the appearance of wrinkles. However, pregnant or breastfeeding women, as well as individuals with certain medical conditions or allergies, should avoid this treatment.
How often should I get wrinkle aesthetics?
Most people find that getting injections every 3 to 6 months maintains their desired results. Over time, some may require less frequent treatments as the muscles “learn” to relax.
Medical Conditions
Are there any side effects?
Common side effects include minor swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection site. In rare cases, temporary muscle weakness or drooping in nearby areas may occur, but this typically resolves over time.
Post Care
Is there any downtime after the procedure?
There is little to no downtime required after wrinkle aesthetics. You can usually return to your daily activities immediately after treatment. However, it’s recommended to avoid vigorous exercise, alcohol, or rubbing the treated area for at least 24 hours.
