Hyperhidrosis (Underarm Sweating)

Excessive sweating also known as Hyperhidrosis can affect many areas of the body and is most common on the underarms and palms of the hands. It may be caused by nervousness or anxiety, overactive sweat glands, coffee or alcohol consumption or may relate to another medical condition. This condition can be successfully treated by using small amounts of Botulinum toxin, which is injected into the muscles.

Mentalis / Pebbled Chin

Pebbled or ‘orange peel’ chin is the term used to describe a chin that, when puckered (and sometimes also at rest) has the appearance of orange peel, with textural changes and pitting. This condition is easily treated with injections of Botulinum Toxin A, a type of neurotoxin which acts by relaxing the chin muscles that cause the uneven and bumpy appearance.

Masseter / Jaw Line Shaping

Nasalis / Bunny Lines

“Bunny lines” refer to the fine lines that appear on either side of your nose when you wrinkle it. Like many types of facial wrinkles, bunny lines are caused by repeating certain facial expressions.

Marionette Lines / Sad Smile

As we age the mouth can take on a downturned appearance. This can cause a negative and sad appearance to the face. A downturned mouth can be treated with muscle relaxing injections causing the corners of the mouth to be slightly lifted and giving the mouth a more relaxed, happy, youthful and pleasing appearance.

Peri-Oral Lines

Peri-oral lines / smokers lines are mini vertical wrinkles that sit on top of your upper lip. Moreover, these ageing lines become deeper and prominent as you age further. Botulinum toxin relaxes your muscles, and so, it can relax those mouth muscles that build up because you use them so often. As a result, Botulinum toxin injections soften and blur the embarrassing lip lines.

Gummy Smile

A gummy smile, known in medical terms as excessive gingival display, is when you smile and too much gum tissue shows above the top teeth. Botulinum toxin works by temporarily paralyzing the elevator muscles, so that they will not raise your upper lip dramatically whenever you smile.

Lip Flip

A lip flip involves the injection of Botox into your Cupid's bow, which is the middle of your upper lip, and into the corners of your mouth. The injection temporarily relaxes the muscles around your lip resulting in a fuller looking lip.

Eyebrow Lift

A non-surgical brow lift is a cosmetic procedure that tightens and raises the skin on the upper third of your face, specifically the forehead and eyebrows.
