How Do
Nefertiti Neck Treatment Work?
Anti-wrinkle treatments contain Botulinum toxin type A which is a purified neurotoxin protein. This may sound dangerous, but to this day due to the good safety profile and effect they have there are million of these injections administered every year. Anti-wrinkle treatments work by temporarily paralyzing or relaxing specific muscles or nerve endings, depending on its application.
In cosmetic procedures, anti-wrinkle treatments are often used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, particularly in the forehead, around the eyes (crow's feet), and between the eyebrows (frown lines). By relaxing the underlying muscles responsible for these wrinkles, we can create a smoother and more youthful appearance.
How Should
I Prepare Before Treatment?
If you’re planning to come in for an anti-wrinkle treatment, we advise our patients to avoid alcohol, smoking, Ibuprofen and fish oils for at least two days prior to the treatment. This helps minimise bruising and swelling. We believe that a healthy body increases the chance of a successful outcome.
​
It is important to highlight other blood-thinning medications such as warfarin, DOACs and heparin can also increase the likelihood of side effect.
