What are Muscle Relaxing Injections?
Muscle Relaxing Injections involve the administration of a purified solution (botulinum toxin) into specific facial muscles to temporarily relax them. By reducing muscle contractions, the treatment softens wrinkles and creates a smoother, more youthful appearance.
Commonly treated areas include:
- Forehead Lines: Horizontal lines caused by raising the eyebrows.
- Frown Lines: Vertical lines between the eyebrows.
- Crow’s Feet: Fine lines at the corners of the eyes caused by smiling or squinting.
This versatile treatment can also address other concerns, including excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis).
Who are Muscle Relaxing Injections For?
Muscle Relaxing Injections are suitable for both men and women seeking a non-invasive solution to minimise wrinkles and enhance their appearance. This treatment is ideal for individuals who:
- Want to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles caused by repetitive facial expressions.
- Desire a smoother, more youthful look without undergoing surgery.
- Are seeking additional benefits, such as relief from excessive sweating.
Whether you’re new to cosmetic treatments or looking to maintain your current results, Muscle Relaxing Injections provide a customised solution tailored to your specific needs.

How Do Muscle Relaxing Injections Work?
The process is straightforward and minimally invasive:
1. Consultation:
- Your Aesthetic Nurse Prescriber will assess your skin, discuss your goals, and determine the best treatment plan for you.
2. Injection:
- A small amount of botulinum toxin is injected into the targeted muscles using a fine needle. The procedure involves minimal discomfort, often described as a slight pinch to the skin.
3. Muscle Relaxation:
- Once injected, the nerve signals are blocked going to the muscles, preventing contractions. This relaxation smooths wrinkles and softens facial lines.
The entire procedure typically takes 15–30 minutes, depending on the number of areas being treated.
How Long Will Muscle Relaxing Injections Last?
The effects of Muscle Relaxing Injections usually last 3 to 6 months, though this can vary depending on factors such as your metabolism, lifestyle, and the areas treated.
- Visible Results: Improvements become noticeable within a few days, with optimal results appearing after about two weeks.
- Maintenance Treatments: Regular touch-ups are recommended to maintain your desired look.
Your Aesthetic Nurse Prescriber will provide a personalised treatment plan and post-treatment advice to help you achieve and sustain your results.
