Anti-Wrinkle Treatments
Wrinkle relaxing treatments using filler a range of products are one of the most popular and effective treatments for the reduction of facial lines as they can be performed quickly, are non-invasive, and most importantly, safe. The wrinkle reduction treatment consists of a series of fine injections into the targeted areas to smooth out facial lines and give the appearance of a more youthful and rejuvenated look.
Wrinkle fillers contain a chemical which is a purified protein that temporarily disrupts the communication pathway between nerve endings and muscle fibres, it stops muscle contraction and reduces the appearance of wrinkles. The effect is reversible and a wrinkle relaxing injection can last up to 4 months.
In the hands of an advanced injector, it can be used to treat far more than the 3 conventional facial areas mentioned above. At Harley Street Medical Doctors, we offer an advanced wrinkle treatment for:

Botulinum Toxins can also be used as a facial slimming procedure. It is particularly popular with the Asian where masseter (one of the muscles responsible for chewing) hypertrophy is fairly common. By treating these areas, one’s face will look slimmer and sharper. Furthermore, it has added benefit to treating individuals who grind their teeth at night, too.
