ANTI WRINKLE TREATMENTS

At Adare Dermatology, anti-wrinkle treatments are provided as part of a doctor-led, medically focused approach to facial aesthetics. These treatments are designed to soften the appearance of expression lines while maintaining natural facial movement and individual character. All procedures are carried out by qualified doctors and nurse practitioners in a registered medical clinic, with patient safety and clinical suitability at the centre of every decision.

Anti-wrinkle treatments work by relaxing specific facial muscles that are responsible for dynamic lines caused by repeated movement over time. These lines most commonly appear on the forehead, between the eyebrows (frown lines), and around the eyes (crow’s feet). By carefully reducing muscle activity in targeted areas, the skin can appear smoother and more rested, without altering facial identity.

A Medical, Personalised Approach

At Adare Dermatology, anti-wrinkle treatments always begin with a comprehensive consultation. During this appointment, your doctor or nurse practitioner will assess your facial anatomy, muscle movement, skin condition, and overall health. Your concerns, expectations, and treatment goals are discussed in detail to ensure that any treatment plan is appropriate and realistic.

This personalised approach allows treatments to be tailored precisely to your face. Rather than using standardised dosing or placement, anti-wrinkle injections are planned conservatively to achieve balanced, natural-looking results. The aim is not to “freeze” the face, but to reduce excessive muscle activity while preserving expression.

Areas Commonly Treated

Anti-wrinkle treatments at Adare Dermatology are commonly used to address:

Forehead lines
Frown lines between the eyebrows
Crow’s feet around the eyes
Brow heaviness or tension

In some cases, treatment may also be considered for other areas following a medical assessment, depending on individual needs and suitability.

What to Expect From Treatment

Anti-wrinkle injections are typically quick to perform and are carried out in the clinic setting. Treatment usually takes around 15–30 minutes. Discomfort is generally minimal, and most patients are able to return to normal daily activities shortly afterwards.

Results develop gradually over several days, with the full effect usually visible within two weeks. The effects are temporary and typically last around three to four months, after which muscle activity gradually returns. Maintenance treatments may be discussed as part of an ongoing plan, depending on patient preference.

Safety and Clinical Standards

As a registered medical clinic, Adare Dermatology places strong emphasis on clinical governance, patient safety, and ethical practice. Anti-wrinkle treatments are prescription-only medicines and are only administered following a medical consultation. Suitability is assessed carefully, and treatment is not offered where it is not appropriate.

Patients are provided with clear aftercare advice and are encouraged to ask questions both before and after treatment. Follow-up appointments can be arranged where necessary to review outcomes.
