Anti Wrinkle Injections

Lines and wrinkles are a fact of life but as we age they will become more apparent, often leading to many of us looking older than we feel.

Every time we smile or frown, we use underlying muscles in our face. As these muscles expand and contract, over time they crease the skin and gradually wear away the collagen in the skin which then leads to lines and wrinkles appearing on our faces. Natural ageing, sun damage, smoking and unavoidable environmental factors also add to the breakdown of our collagen leading to lines and wrinkles.

Anti Wrinkle Injections relax the facial muscles, helping the skin to relax, preventing the formation of new lines wrinkles and smoothing out existing ones.

Line & wrinkle treatments work only on the specific muscles injected, leaving surrounding muscles to function as usual, enabling normal facial expressions, just with less wrinkles.

The anti wrinkle treatment we all know as Botox® has now been formally approved for cosmetic use under a new name - VISTABEL®. Botox® and VISTABEL® contain exactly the same tried and tested formulation.

This is a prescription only treatment and can only be administered by highly trained doctors and practitioners. It is a purified form of a natural protein and it works by temporarily relaxing facial muscles. This treatment has been used on over 1 million patients around the world for over 10 years. All MySpa non surgical doctors and practitioners have administered hundreds of wrinkle relaxing injections.
