Botox injections inhibit the muscular contractions that lead to the development of lines and wrinkles. Each of us develops lines and wrinkles in a unique way, depending on genetics, bone structure, skin type, and repeated facial movements such as smiling or frowning. At Dr Kathryn Aesthetics & Skincare in Cardiff, we are committed to delivering natural-looking results, with Botox, that bring out the best version of you.
Whether you are looking to address lines and wrinkles with anti-wrinkle injections, tackle sun damage, enhance your lips, restore lost facial volume, take advantage of a skin peel, or enjoy the benefits of medical-grade skin care products, Dr Kathryn Aesthetics & Skincare in Cardiff provides the service youโre looking for. With her many years of experience as a doctor, she combines the highest professional standards with a passion for skincare and aesthetics.
A consultation at our Cardiff Clinic is the first step in your anti-wrinkle injection treatment journey. Taking your medical history into account, we will listen carefully to understand your concerns and agree on a personalised treatment plan to help you reach your aesthetic goals.
From Botox to chemical peels to dermal fillers, Dr Kathryn will draw from her knowledge and experience to expertly deliver the treatments agreed upon during your consultation, making sure you are comfortable and at ease.
Though many treatments can be slotted into a short break in your working day, some require downtime and aftercare. We will advise you of anything you should avoid, while making sure you know the best way to care for your treated skin.
Anti-wrinkle injections have been used as an aesthetic treatment for decades, treating people all over the world. Botox blocks the chemical signals which tell the targeted muscle to contract, impeding the development of dynamic lines and wrinkles โ for example, if a client wants to address forehead lines, Botox is placed to stop the procerus and corrugators muscles from contracting, resulting in smoother, younger-looking skin.
Botox, at our Cardiff Clinic, is a versatile treatment, able to address an array of facial concerns, including:
– Crowโs feet
– Frown lines
– Forehead lines
– Smokers lines
– Smile lines
Botox is injected into the treatment area with a very fine needle, which is barely detectable for most clients.
You might experience slight swelling or redness at the Botox injection sites, which usually fades within less than an hour.
Some clients notice a difference within 24-72 hours, but most commonly it takes 10-14 days for optimal Botox results to show.
