Anti-Wrinkle Injections areas that we treat at Dr Sknn
Forehead lines
forehead wrinkles are the horizontal wrinkles that appear across our forehead
Frown lines
frown lines, sometimes called worry lines, are the vertical lines that appear between your eyebrows
Crow's Feet | Smile Lines
crow's feet are the fine lines around the eye area. These tiny wrinkles might also be known as smile lines
Bunny lines
this procedure aims to reduce/soften the wrinkles that develop on the lateral/dorsal aspects of the nose but which may extend out to the lower eyelid. In some people these lines occur during natural expression, whilst in others, just during active movements such as laughing, sniffing and squinting.
Lip lines (Perioral lines/Smoker’s Lines)
as we grow older unfortunately we lose lip volume and develop vertical lines around the mouth. These lines form as a result of mouth movements and are also known as 'smoker's lines' due to the them developing in smokers at younger age.
Chin Dimpling/Pebbled Chin
dimpling of the skin around the chin area results from repeated contractions of the mentalis (chin muscle), treatment relaxes and smoothens the chin & mental crease
Chemical Brow Lift
when performed it lifts the brows and open up the eyes, creating a more youthful appearance
Jaw Line Reduction
this treatment reduces the width of the jaw line. The treatment is injected into the ‘chewing’ muscles of the jaw (called the massater muscle) to reduce its size and prominence of the jaw area.
it also helps those who suffer with temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders as treatment can reduce clenching alleviating jaw pain, jaw tension, TMJ soreness, and tension headaches
Downward Turned Mouth
this treatment can diminish the downward pull on the corners of the mouth and allow the muscles that elevate the corners to take over hence subtly lifting the corners of the mouth
Gummy Smile
gummy Smile is a phenomenon that when some people smile, their upper lip elevates too far above their upper teeth, exposing gums and producing an unattractive smile. One of the causes is hyperactive muscle which elevates the upper lip. Occasionally, the gummy smile is also aggravated by a thin upper lip that further contributes to the problem by exposing the upper gum even more. This treatment can reduce the gum show
Nerfertiti Neck Lift
the effect is to improve the definition of the jaw line, relax the jowls, and provide an ‘upward lifting effect’ in the neck and jaw area.
Hyperhidrosis
