The more common areas of treatment are frown lines, forehead lines, crows feet, smokers lines and neck lines. The majority of treatments will last for around 3-5 months which is individual.
It is one of the UK’s most popular cosmetic treatments for the smoothing of wrinkles.
As I am an advanced aesthetic nurse prescriber I can easily interchange between toxins such Botulinum Toxin, Azzalure and Nuceiva as needed following your consultation ensuring a perfect tailoring to you.
I will always discuss your requirements with you as some people prefer to retain some natural movement afterwards while others like the more ‘frozen’ effect.
