What Are Anti‑Wrinkle Injections?
Anti‑wrinkle injections use botulinum toxin type A to temporarily relax specific facial muscles that create expression lines. At Skinhorizon Clinic we take a natural‑first, consultant‑led approach to soften lines while keeping your facial expressions and character.
Prescription‑only: Suitability is confirmed during consultation by our prescribing clinician.

Botox Results: How Long Do They Last?
Most cosmetic areas start improving in 3–7 days, peak at around 2 weeks, and last about 3–4 months. Masseter and hyperhidrosis often last longer due to different dosing and muscle/gland response.
