Botox Treatment and Injection: What to Expect at Our Skin Clinic

If you’re considering botox, you’re probably after one thing: a fresher, more rested look that still feels like you. At Dental & Wellness London, our botox treatment is a medical-led cosmetic treatment delivered by a qualified practitioner, with a careful treatment plan tailored to your face, your lifestyle, and your goals.

A botox injection is a precise injection into specific facial muscles that contribute to lines formed by repeated movement. These are often called dynamic wrinkles — the lines that show up with facial expressions and facial movements. The aim is to soften movement in targeted areas, reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles, and support a naturally refreshed appearance.

This is a London clinic, so we keep it practical: clear advice, realistic timelines, and results that suit real life in Islington, Hackney and Stoke Newington. As always, results may vary.

Botox Injection for Frown Lines and Glabellar Lines: The Area Between the Eyebrows

The classic Botox area is the area between the eyebrows, often called glabellar lines. These frown lines can deepen over time because the muscles are used frequently — especially if you’re stressed, squinting on the commute, or spending long hours on screens.

A botox injection in this region can soften the frown, reduce the appearance of vertical lines, and help keep facial expressions remain natural when planned properly. We focus on subtle balance, not a “stiff” look.

Forehead Lines, Horizontal Lines, and Forehead Wrinkles: Smoothing Without Looking Frozen

Forehead lines and forehead wrinkles are often horizontal lines across the horizontal forehead that appear when you raise your brows. Botox can help smooth this area while still allowing expression.

We consider how your brows sit at rest, your natural movement, and how to lift the brows subtly when appropriate — always respecting your unique facial structure. The goal is a smoother and more youthful finish, not a flat, over-treated forehead.

Crow’s Feet, Crow's Feet, and Crows Feet: Wrinkles Around the Eyes

Whether you type crow’s feet, crow's feet, or crows feet, it usually means the same thing: wrinkles around the eyes that show when you smile or squint.

Botox can soften these wrinkles around the outer corners of the eyes while keeping your smile warm and expressive. We look at the way your eyes crinkle with laughter (because that’s normal) and aim to soften, not erase.

Brow Balance and Fine Lines: Smooth, Refreshed, and Still You

A good plan doesn’t only chase one wrinkle. It supports overall harmony — especially around the brow, where small changes can shift your look dramatically.

Botox can help with fine lines, wrinkles and fine lines, and fine lines and wrinkles caused by repetitive movement. Over time, it can help with reducing the appearance of wrinkles while keeping your face relaxed and natural.

If you’re after a calm, “I slept well” look — this is where Botox shines.

Gummy Smile: Can Botox Help?

Yes, Botox is sometimes used for a gummy smile, where the upper lip lifts high when you smile. By treating very specific muscles, we can relax the lift slightly and create a more balanced smile.

This is a detail-led area. It’s one of those treatments where the experience of a qualified practitioner matters.

Effects of Botox: How Botox Works and What Botox Is Used For

The effects of botox come from how it interacts with the muscles. Botox works by temporarily blocking the signal between nerves and targeted muscles, reducing the strength of contraction. In simple terms, works by temporarily relaxing movement in the area treated.

Botox is a purified toxin derived from the bacterium clostridium botulinum (often written as a bacterium clostridium botulinum). You may also see it described as derived from the bacterium clostridium — that’s the origin story, but the product used clinically is purified and carefully dosed.

In practice, botox is used to soften expression-related lines and support a smoother look without changing your identity.

Botox Results: When You’ll See Results and How Long They Last

Most people notice that results start within a few days, with full results typically visible around 10–14 days. Your botox journey is individual, and the results of botox can vary depending on your muscle strength, metabolism, and how expressive you are — again, results may vary.

In terms of longevity, results typically last three to four months for many patients. Your clinician will advise on timing for optimal results.

If you’d like to see results in a structured way, we can schedule a review at the right time point.

Botox Before and After Photos: What Photos Show (and What They Don’t)

We’re often asked for botox before and after photos. When photos show a strong change, it’s usually because the “before” has deep dynamic movement and the “after” has relaxed movement.

A note of honesty: photos don’t always capture how you feel in real life — a better marker is how rested you look, how your makeup sits, and how confident you feel when you catch your reflection.

If you’re curious about typical outcomes, we’ll share examples during your consultation so you can understand what’s realistic for your features.

Wrinkles and Fine Lines: Which Wrinkles Respond Best to Anti-Wrinkle Injections?

Botox is most effective for expression-driven lines and wrinkles — the ones created by repeated facial movements. These are often called dynamic wrinkles and include:

• Frown lines (glabellar lines)
• Forehead lines (horizontal forehead lines)
• Crow’s feet (wrinkles around the eyes)

For lines caused mainly by volume loss or skin thinning, Botox may be part of a bigger plan that includes skin support or combining botox with other options.

Dermal Fillers and Marionette Lines: When Fillers Make More Sense

Some concerns respond better to dermal fillers, especially marionette lines (the lines that run down from the corners of the mouth) and certain static folds.

Botox can help when muscle pull contributes, but fillers can restore structure where volume has reduced over time. We often discuss these options together so you don’t end up treating the wrong issue.

This is where a thoughtful cosmetic procedure approach matters — sometimes it’s Botox, sometimes it’s fillers, sometimes it’s a mix, and sometimes it’s neither.

Rejuvenation and Youthful Appearance: The “Refresh” Most Londoners Want

Most people aren’t trying to look like someone else. They want to look like themselves after a good holiday — a subtle refresh, a bit of rejuvenation, and a more youthful appearance without announcing it.

Botox can contribute to a refreshed and youthful appearance by softening tension areas while keeping movement natural. We aim for natural-looking results, effective results, and a look that supports enhancing your natural beauty.

Cosmetic Skin Clinic Standards: Quality of Care and a Treatment Plan You Can Trust

Choosing a cosmetic skin clinic is about more than price. The quality of care comes from assessment, anatomy knowledge, safe technique, and the ability to plan around your face rather than a standard template.

At Dental & Wellness London, your treatment plan is designed around:

• Your movement patterns and facial symmetry
• Your goals (subtle vs stronger smoothing)
• Your timeline (events, travel, work)
• Your comfort and safety

If you’re comparing providers like cosmedics skin clinics, focus on practitioner qualifications, consultation depth, and whether you feel listened to. London has plenty of choice — your face deserves the best fit.

Considering Botox at 50 Year Old (or Any Age): What Changes With Time?

If you’re 50 year old (or simply noticing more signs of ageing), Botox can still be helpful for dynamic lines — but we may also talk about skin support, hydration, and overall facial balance.

With age, some lines become more “set” at rest. Botox can still soften movement and reduce the appearance, but a holistic plan sometimes gives a better overall result than chasing one crease.

Injection Site and Safety: What Happens During the Appointment?

A Botox appointment is usually quick. After assessment, we cleanse the area and deliver tiny injections to specific muscles. You may see a small bump at the injection site that settles quickly.

You’ll receive clear aftercare, and we’ll advise what to avoid for the rest of the day.

Bunny Lines, Chin Dimples, and Other Small Tweaks (When Appropriate)

Depending on your concerns, Botox may also be used for:

• bunny lines (nose scrunch lines)
• chin dimples (orange-peel texture when you tense the chin)
• subtle brow balancing

These are optional extras — never essentials — and we only recommend them if they genuinely suit your face.

See Results: A Simple Timeline for Your Botox Journey

• Day 1–2: little change (sometimes mild tenderness)
• Day 3–7: results start, movement begins to soften
• Day 10–14: full results
• Month 3–4: results begin to fade for many patients; results typically last three to four months

If you want a check-in, we can review at the best point to confirm symmetry and fine-tune if needed.

Final Word: Botox Anti-Wrinkle Injections for a Refreshed Appearance in London

Botox anti-wrinkle injections and anti-wrinkle injections can be a smart, subtle way to improve wrinkles and lines caused by expression. When delivered by a qualified practitioner, Botox can smooth fine lines, soften a wrinkle, and keep facial expressions remain natural.

If you’re based in or around Islington, Hackney, or Stoke Newington and you’re considering botox, a proper consultation is the simplest next step. We’ll talk through your options, explain what’s realistic, and design a plan that supports a fresher, more confident you.
