Muscle Relaxing Treatments
(Commonly known as BOTOX™ )



Muscle Relaxing Treatments (Botox)

Every time you smile or frown, you set off a series of contractions in the underlying muscles of your face. As these muscles expand and contract, they crease your skin with an unflattering pattern of lines.

A quick, safe and simple procedure involving Muscle Relaxing injections can smooth out those lines and wrinkles on the upper part of your face, giving you a more relaxed and youthful appearance which can last for several months.

How does muscle relaxing treatment work?
A series of tiny muscle relaxing injections are given to the area requiring treatment. The active ingredient is Botulinum Toxin, which, when used in small doses, reversibly relaxes the muscles underneath the skin that produce lines and wrinkles.
Who Are muscle relaxing treatments for?

Before you make your decision, SurgiCare will offer you a private consultation with muscle relaxing treatment specialist to determine whether or not you are a suitable candidate.
What happens during muscle relaxing treatment?
  1. A series of tiny injections using a very fine needle are made into the desired locations.
  2. The volume of liquid injected is so tiny that any discomfort associated with the injections is minimal.
  3. No local anaesthetic is required to numb the area before treatment.
  4. Occasionally a small amount of bruising or swelling may occur at the injections sites, which resolves over a few days.
Is muscle relaxing safe?
Although any procedure carries small risks, muscle-relaxing treatment is a very safe treatment in skilled hands. At SurgiCare only doctors with special training carry out the treatment.
Will I lose expression?
The extent to which facial expression is affected will depend on where the muscle relaxant is injected and how much of the substance is used. SurgiCare will aim to achieve the result you desire ranging from complete smoothing of, for example, the forehead, or a partial reduction in muscle activity, which will smooth out the lines but allow residual forehead movements.
