When Should You Start Anti Wrinkle Injections? | Surrey Hills Aesthetics, Farnham

Wondering when to start anti wrinkle injections? Learn when treatment is most effective, what to expect and how natural results are achieved at Surrey Hills Aesthetics in Farnham.

One of the most common questions I get asked in clinic is:

"Am I too young, or too old, to start anti wrinkle injections?"

The truth is, there isn't a magic age.

The right time depends on your skin, your facial movements and, most importantly, your goals.

Preventing lines versus treating lines

In your late twenties and thirties, you may notice faint lines appearing when you smile, frown or raise your eyebrows. These are known as dynamic lines because they only appear with movement.

For some people, this is the ideal time to start treatment if they want to help prevent these lines from becoming permanently etched into the skin.

Others choose to wait until the lines are visible even when the face is relaxed. Anti wrinkle injections can still soften these static lines, although deeper wrinkles may require additional treatments or a longer term approach.

It's about looking refreshed, not frozen

One of the biggest misconceptions is that anti wrinkle injections leave you expressionless.

Modern aesthetic treatments are about subtle, natural looking results. My aim is never to change how you look, but to help you look like a well rested version of yourself.

Friends and family should notice that you look refreshed, not that you've "had something done".

Which areas can be treated?

The most popular areas include:

• Forehead lines

• Frown lines between the eyebrows

• Crow's feet around the eyes

• Bunny lines on the nose

• A downturned smile

• Chin dimpling

• Lip flip to elevate the top lip, whilst keeping it flat

• Jawline

• Nefertiti - neck tightening

Every treatment is tailored to your facial anatomy and the way your muscles move.

What happens during your consultation?

Every appointment begins with a full consultation.

We'll discuss:

• What you'd like to achieve

• Your medical history

• Whether anti wrinkle injections are the most appropriate treatment

• Any questions or concerns you may have

Sometimes the best advice is to wait, or to consider an alternative treatment. My priority is always recommending what's right for you, rather than simply carrying out a procedure.

How long do results last?

Most people begin to notice the effects within a few days, with full results developing over approximately two weeks.

Results typically last around three to four months, although this varies from person to person.
