Cosmetic Treatment
Anti-Wrinkle Injections
Smooth dynamic wrinkles and restore a refreshed, natural-looking appearance — with expert precision by Dr Lindsay Moran.
Overview
Anti-Wrinkle Injections
Anti-wrinkle injections are one of the most popular cosmetic treatments in the world, and for good reason. They work by temporarily relaxing the small muscles responsible for dynamic facial expressions — the same movements that, over time, lead to fine lines and wrinkles across the forehead, between the brows, and around the eyes.
The active ingredient is a highly purified protein derived from a naturally occurring bacterium. When a tiny amount is precisely injected into targeted muscles, it temporarily blocks the nerve signals that cause those muscles to contract. The result is a smoother, more relaxed appearance — without permanently altering your expressions or leaving you looking "frozen".
Dr Lindsay Moran has been performing anti-wrinkle injections since 2008, with extensive training in both London and Australia. Her approach is conservative and tailored — she takes time to understand your anatomy and aesthetic goals before recommending a treatment plan.
Treatment is quick — typically 15–30 minutes — with minimal downtime. Results begin to appear within 3–10 days and last an average of 3–6 months, depending on the area treated, the dose used, and individual factors such as muscle strength and metabolism.
Areas that can be treated include: forehead lines, frown lines (the '11s'), crow's feet, brow lift, bunny lines on the nose, lip flip, gummy smile correction, jaw slimming (masseter), and neck bands (platysmal bands). Anti-wrinkle injections can also be used therapeutically to treat excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis).

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it painful?
Most patients describe the sensation as a small sting or scratch. The needles used are very fine, and treatment is usually well-tolerated without any anaesthesia.
How long do results last?
Results generally last between 3–6 months. Factors such as metabolism, the area treated, and the dose used can all influence longevity. With regular maintenance, some patients find their results last longer over time.
Can I have anti-wrinkle injections if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?
No. Anti-wrinkle injections are not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Please let us know if this applies to you.

Side effects are generally mild and temporary. They can include redness, bruising, or swelling at the injection site, a mild headache, or temporary drooping if the product migrates slightly. These effects resolve within days to weeks.
