Anti-Wrinkle Treatment (Botox) FAQs
How long will it take before it starts to work?
You may start to notice results within 3–5 days, with the full effect visible around 10–14 days after treatment.
Will it get rid of all my wrinkles (static lines)?
Anti-wrinkle treatment relaxes the muscles that cause expression lines. Deeper, static lines may soften but won’t always disappear completely. Other treatments can be recommended alongside for best results.
How long will it last?
Results typically last around 3–4 months, although this can vary depending on your metabolism and lifestyle.
Why do I have to come for a face-to-face consultation?
A face-to-face consultation is essential to make sure treatment is safe, suitable and tailored to your face. It’s also a legal requirement for prescription treatments and gives you time to ask questions and discuss expectations.

Polynucleotides & Skin Boosters FAQs
Is it painful?
Discomfort is minimal. A numbing cream is applied beforehand, and most clients describe a slight pinch or pressure during treatment.
Are there any side effects?
You may experience mild redness, swelling or small bumps at the injection sites, which usually settle within a few days.

How many treatments will I need and how long will results last?
A course of 2–3 treatments is usually recommended. Results can last several months, with maintenance treatments helping to prolong the effects.

General Skin Questions
Why do I need to wear SPF?
SPF protects your skin from UV damage, which is a major cause of premature ageing, pigmentation and skin cancer. It’s especially important after aesthetic treatments.
Why do I keep getting age spots / acne / milia?
These can be caused by sun exposure, hormones, blocked pores, skincare products or genetics. A skin consultation helps identify the cause and the best treatment approach.
Why is my skin so dry?
Dry skin can be due to dehydration, environmental factors, ageing or a weakened skin barrier. Professional treatments and the right homecare can help restore balance.
