The Benefits of Anti Wrinkle Injections
It is important to note that anti wrinkle injections is only effective if the wrinkles have been caused by muscle movement, known as dynamic wrinkles or expression lines.
This is usually the case for lines on the upper face between the eyebrows, on the forehead, and the areas around the eyes. Essentially, any lines that smiling, frowning or squinting can cause. The fine lines and wrinkles that often are caused as the ageing process that create sagging or static wrinkles in the cheeks, neck, and jowl are not suitable for the anti wrinkle injections procedure.
It should also be noted that anti wrinkle injections is not permanent and treatments must be somewhat regular to maintain the wrinkle-free look. A anti wrinkle injection session will often last around 3 to 4 months.
