Anti-Wrinkle Injections: A Beginner’s Guide

If you’re curious about anti-wrinkle injections but not sure where to start, you’re not alone. They’re one of the most popular aesthetic treatments worldwide — and for good reason. When done correctly, they offer a natural, refreshed look without changing your facial features.

At Salon Thirty Three, our approach is subtle, safe, and tailored to each individual. Here’s your complete beginner’s guide.

What Are Anti-Wrinkle Injections?

Anti-wrinkle injections use a purified protein to relax target muscles in the face. When these muscles soften, the lines caused by repeated movement — such as frowning, squinting or raising the eyebrows — become smoother.

The result?A fresher, softer, more youthful appearance that still looks completely natural.

What Can They Treat?

Anti-wrinkle injections are effective for:

• Frown lines (between the brows)

• Forehead lines

• Crow’s feet

• Bunny lines

• Gummy smile

• Lip flip

• Downturned mouth corners

• Neck bands

They can also be used for medical concerns like jaw clenching and excessive sweating.

How Do Anti-Wrinkle Injections Work?

The product temporarily relaxes the muscles responsible for creating expression lines. This prevents the skin from creasing as deeply, giving it time to smooth out.

You’ll still be able to move your face normally — just without harsh lines.

What Happens During the Treatment?

Your appointment is quick and comfortable:

1. Consultation – We discuss your concerns, desired results and medical history.

2. Assessment – Your practitioner studies your facial movement to decide the precise injection points.

3. Treatment – A series of tiny, quick injections are given. Most clients describe the sensation as a small scratch.

4. Aftercare – You’ll receive simple guidance to follow for the next few hours.

The whole treatment typically takes around 15 minutes.

When Will I See Results?

You’ll start to see changes within 3–5 days, with full results developing by 2 weeks.

This is why we always schedule a review appointment around the two-week mark to ensure the results are perfect.

How Long Do Results Last?

Results usually last 3–4 months, depending on:

• Your muscle strength

• Your metabolism

• How expressive your face is

• The area treated

With consistent treatments, results can last even longer as the muscles gradually weaken.

Will I Look Frozen?

Not with us.

At Salon Thirty Three, we specialise in soft, natural results. Our aim is to enhance your appearance — not change it. You’ll still look like yourself, just smoother and more refreshed.

Is It Safe?

Yes — when performed by a trained aesthetic practitioner.Anti-wrinkle injections have been used safely for decades and have one of the highest safety profiles in aesthetics.

Mild, temporary side effects may include:

• Small bumps for 10–15 minutes

• Slight redness

• Tiny bruises (rare)

You can go back to work straight after your treatment.

Not Sure Where to Start?

Many beginners start with:

• Frown line softening

• Forehead lines

• Crow’s feet

• Lip flip for a natural lift

Your practitioner will guide you on the best option based on your face shape and goals.
