Profhilo® Face/Neck area

Forehead lines when present can make you look older and more fatigued. From 25 years of age onwards collagen production starts to decline in the skin. This coupled with repeated facial movements can lead to visible signs of ageing such as the formation of forehead lines and wrinkles. At Cosmedica Skin we can help boost your confidence by smoothing out these forehead lines and ensuring a youthful appearance.

Anti-wrinkle injections with Botulinum toxin Type A are used. When injected using a fine needle into the target muscle, it works by temporarily blocking the nerve signal and as a result weakens the muscle action. This muscle weakening helps to treat the appearance of forehead lines on expression.

Due to Dr Ricky’s light-handed technique and use of a very fine needle discomfort should be minimal albeit a minor stinging sensation.

There is normally no downtime and you can return to work and carry out normal activities straight away. Dr Ricky will explain the relevant aftercare post the procedure to ensure a sustained excellent outcome.

Normally most people start to notice a result after 5 days with a near full result by 14 days. However Botulinum toxin can take up to 30 days to fully work.

Typically results can last from 3-4 months for some people this can be longer.

If you are unsure whether you require this treatment, please do not hesitate in booking a skin consultation with Dr Ricky. Here Dr Ricky will carry out a thorough facial and skin assessment, listen to your concerns and will happily formulate a treatment plan tailored to your individual needs and goals. At Cosmedica Skin we understand that one size does not fit all, therefore we like to carry out a thorough consultation and agree with you upon an individually tailored treatment plan so we can enhance your natural beauty.
