Anti-wrinkle Injections Brighton Melbourne

Anti-wrinkle injections can target the eyes, nose, mouth and forehead.

It is not always necessary to undergo a surgical procedure to improve your facial appearance. Mr David Morgan offers procedures which can improve the appearance of your face without the risks of scarring or having a general anaesthetic.

Fine wrinkles that result from excessive and repeated muscle action around our eyes, nose mouth and foreheads can give a tired, angry, or aged look that can be out of keeping with how our patients feel. Anti-wrinkle injections that are skilfully targeted at these areas can stop the muscle activity responsible for the wrinkles and can give you a more refreshed and rejuvenated appearance. This procedure requires no anaesthetic and can be performed in our practice in less than twenty minutes. The effects of the injection will become apparent over the next 7-10 days and will usually last from 3-6 months. Injections can be repeated as necessary and will often allow the skin to recover over time so that these fine wrinkles become less noticeable.

Deeper wrinkles can form in the face as a result of ageing and are particularly common between the eyes, around the mouth and chin, and at the junction of the cheek and upper lip. Dermal fillers are used in these areas to reduce the depth and visibility of the lines and to improve the appearance of the surrounding skin. These fillers are made of a non-animal non-allergenic substance that is identical to a naturally occurring substance in our skin and is provided in small syringes for ease of use. These injections are usually performed under some form of local anaesthesia and may require early arrival for your appointment to allow the anaesthesia time to work. The effect of these injections can be immediately apparent and can last for 9-12 months.

Skin care

Good skin care is an important part of maintaining your skin’s health and can maximise the effects of any facial rejuvenation procedure. It can help reduce the effects of ageing on the skin, protect against sun damage, and repair the effects of excessive sun damage. Mr Morgan has a strong relationship with local skin therapists and can help coordinate an overall treatment plan.
“My extensive years of study and practice in facial reconstruction mean I am able to perform these delicate procedures with extreme precision and the utmost care”

FAQs

Why is good skin care so important?
Good skin care is a very important part of maintaining your skin’s overall health. By taking care of your skin, you can maximise the effects of any facial rejuvenation procedure, and reduce the effects of the ageing process. Good skin care also helps to protect against sun damage, and repair the effects of any excessive sun damage you may already have.
How long do anti-wrinkle injections take to administer?
The entire anti-wrinkle injection procedure can be performed in less than 20 minutes. The procedure doesn’t require any anaesthetic, and is performed at our practice. You’ll start to notice the effects of the injections over the 7-10 days following the procedure, and the results generally last around 3-6 months, depending on your skin type.
How do anti-wrinkle injections actually work?
In many cases, wrinkles are caused by excessive and repeated muscle action around areas of the face, such as the eyes, nose, mouth, and forehead. Anti-wrinkle injections work by stopping this muscle activity. The injection is targeted at specific areas, leaving the skin looking smoother, rejuvenated, and more youthful. The injections can be repeated as necessary so that the skin can recover over time, making fine wrinkles less noticeable than before.
What causes wrinkles and lines in the face?
Fine lines often develop as a result of excessive and repeated muscle action in certain areas of the face, particularly around the eyes, nose, mouth and forehead, leading to a tired, angry, or aged look. Deeper lines, on the other hand, generally form in the face as a result of the natural ageing process. Deep wrinkles are common between the eyes, around the mouth and chin, and at the junction of the cheek and upper lip.
What do dermal fillers do?
Dermal fillers can be used for the treatment of deep wrinkles, as they effectively work to reduce the depth and visibility of the lines and improve the overall appearance of the surrounding skin. Dermal fillers are also used to restore volume and plump up thin or ageing lips. They also work well to provide more definition to the edge of the lip.
What are dermal fillers made from?
Dermal fillers are made from a non-animal, non-allergenic substance that is actually identical to a substance that naturally occurs in the skin. The formula is provided in small syringes, which means that it is easy to use and administer.
