Anti-Wrinkle Injections (Botox®)

At Woodstock Skin Clinic, we offer safe, medically led anti-wrinkle injections to soften lines, prevent deeper wrinkles from forming, and refresh your appearance while keeping results natural and expressive. All treatments are performed by a qualified doctor with advanced training in facial anatomy and aesthetics.
Anti-wrinkle injections work by relaxing the small muscles responsible for dynamic lines such as frown lines, forehead creases, and crow’s feet. The result is smoother skin, a fresher look, and a well-rested appearance.

Anti-Wrinkle Injections (Botox®)

Medical aesthetics. Natural results. Expert care.
Anti-wrinkle injections are a prescription-only medical treatment used to relax specific facial muscles that cause expression lines. By reducing muscle movement, the skin appears smoother, fresher and more rested, while maintaining natural facial expression.
At Woodstock Skin Clinic, treatments are delivered using a doctor-led, anatomy-based approach, with a strong focus on:
• Patient safety
• Subtle, natural results
• Facial balance and harmony
• Long-term skin preservation
Our philosophy is refinement, not overcorrection.

How anti-wrinkle injections work?

Facial lines form as a result of:

  • Repeated muscle movement (frowning, squinting, smiling)
  • Thinning of the skin with age
  • Gradual loss of collagen and elastin

Botulinum toxin temporarily blocks nerve signals to selected muscles, allowing:

  • Overlying skin to smooth
  • Wrinkles to soften
  • The skin to recover from constant folding

This helps to:

  • Prevent deeper static wrinkles
  • Slow visible ageing
  • Maintain youthful skin quality
  • Preserve natural facial expression

Areas commonly treated

All treatments are individualised based on your facial anatomy, muscle strength and aesthetic goals.

Upper face

  • Forehead lines
  • Frown lines (between the eyebrows)
  • Crow’s feet (around the eyes)

Jaw & neck

  • Masseter (jaw slimming / teeth grinding)
  • Neck bands (platysmal bands)

Medical indications (where appropriate)

  • Excessive sweating (underarms – hyperhidrosis)
  • Bruxism (jaw clenching and teeth grinding)

All treatments are prescribed following a full medical consultation.

Who is suitable?

You may be suitable if you:

  • Prefer non-surgical options

You may not be suitable if you:

  • Are pregnant or breastfeeding
  • Have neuromuscular conditions

Preventative Botox

Anti-wrinkle injections can be used preventatively to:

  • Slow wrinkle formation
  • Preserve collagen
  • Reduce deep line development
  • Maintain smoother skin over time

When used conservatively, this allows you to age gradually and naturally.

Combination treatments

For best results, Botox can be combined with:

  • Medical-grade skincare
  • CO2 laser resurfacing
  • Microneedling
  • Polynucleotides
  • Chemical peels

We create long-term skin plans, not one-off treatments.

Safety and clinical standards

  • Prescription-only medicine
  • Doctor-led consultations
  • Fully regulated products
  • Emergency medical protocols
  • Evidence-based dosing
  • Conservative treatment approach

Patient safety always comes first.
