Botox
At Skin Theory we use Botox mostly to reduce your wrinkles, normally in the upper region of your face. We also use Botox to reduce excessive sweating, jaw clenching and even for reducing specific types of headache.
We feel strongly that Botox wrinkle reduction treatments should look natural. We have learned to appreciate over the years that our patients want to look well and healthy but not look 'done'. Over time and in consultation with your specialist nurse we will build up detailed patient records and notes of exactly how your facial muscles respond to treatment. We will tailor each treatment to suit you.
Your Botox treatment with us starts with a face to face consultation with your specialist nurse practitioner. During your appointment we will also provide your own prescription before treatment. Botox is now a very widely used prescription only medicine (POM) and a prescription is always required.
Forehead Lines
The Botox forehead lift smooths out forehead lines and helps prevent new creases from forming.
Eyebrow Lift
For a rested, refreshed, and younger appearance, the Botox brow lift raises the eyebrows and opens up the eye area.
Eyelid Lift
Botox injected to lift eyebrows can also lift and tighten sagging skin around the eyes, which tend to become hooded with age.
Frown Lines
Botox for frown lines smooths the muscles between the eyes that tend to create “11 lines” when you’re frowning or concentrating.
Crow’s Feet
Botox for crow’s feet smooths fine lines around the outer corner of the eyes for a more alert, youthful look.
Gummy Smile
Botox above the lips can refine a gummy smile by relaxing the muscle, which helps prevent the upper lip from lifting too far above the gums.
Face Slimming
Botox injected into the masseter muscle can soften a square jaw, creating a more feminine silhouette in the lower face.
Jawline Contour
For jawline smoothing, Botox can tighten the muscles along the jaw to create a sharper, more refined contour.
Neck Lift
Botox can tighten and rejuvenate vertical bands in the neck for more slender, younger-looking profile.
Armpits
Botox for sweating blocks nerves that activate your sweat glands, keeping you cool and dry.
