How does Azzalure work?
This is a purified protein which is injected into the specific muscles in the face to temporarily relax them, softening facial expressions and helping to reverse the signs of ageing. It has been used in the UK for over 20 years to treat certain medical conditions and cosmetically it has been used for over 10 years.
It is now licensed to treat frown lines amongst others, but must be prescribed after a consultation with a qualified healthcare professional.
What does treatment involve?
The initial consultation lasts 15-20 minutes, and then we will book you in for the treatment which will take approximately 15 minutes dependant on the treatment required. Finally you will go through aftercare with one of the nurses. After 3 weeks you will come back in for a check up.
How long do effects last?
It normally takes 2-3 days to start working and might take a little longer depending on the strength of your facial muscles and your individual response to the injection. The treatment lasts for 4-6 months.
Are there any side effects?
Side affects are minimal, temporary and normally relate to the injection itself, such as slight discomfort when the needle enters the skin and the possibility of bruising or bleeding at the injection sight. Dr Hawthorn will go through any side effects that might occur during the consultation.
Who can provide treatment?
Only trained healthcare providers, such as Dentists or Doctors.
