Anti-wrinkle injections relax the specific facial muscles that create expression lines, so the skin above them smooths. They are among the most commonly performed non-surgical treatments.
Treatment is prescription-only, so it always starts with a face-to-face consultation with Dr Azoo, who will assess whether it is right for you.
