How Botox Works


Botox, a widely recognised botulinum toxin treatment, works by blocking the nerve impulse to the facial muscles. This muscle relaxation reduces the muscle contractions that cause dynamic wrinkles and facial lines. By targeting specific injection sites, such as forehead lines, glabellar lines, crow's feet, and lipstick lines, Botox effectively softens the appearance of wrinkles. 

 

Our Aesthetic Nurse and medical professionals at Oracle Clinics use high-quality products and advanced techniques to ensure optimal results in treating facial features and muscle activity.

Benefits of Botox

Botox injections offer a myriad of benefits for those seeking aesthetic treatments in Newcastle Upon Tyne:

 

Youthful appearance: Botox helps smooth facial wrinkles and dynamic lines, giving the skin a rejuvenated look.

Prevention: Regular botox treatments can prevent the formation of static lines by reducing muscle stiffness and muscle spasms.

Versatility: Effective for various areas including tear troughs, neck lines, and Marionette lines.

Minimal downtime: With minimal downtime and a lack of extensive recovery, patients can quickly return to their normal activities.

Treatment of choice: Ideal for addressing forehead wrinkles, perioral lines, and appearance of frown lines.

PREPARATION AND AFTERCARE


Preparation for a botox treatment at Oracle Clinics begins with an initial consultation. During this informative consultation, our medical practitioners will conduct a thorough facial analysis to understand your facial anatomy, muscle activity, and individual responses to injectable treatments.

 

Key steps in preparation include:

 

  • Avoiding strenuous exercise and alcohol 24 hours before the injection process.

 

  • Discussing any medical conditions and previous aesthetic treatments.

 

  • Following pre-treatment guidelines provided by our medical expert to ensure optimal results and reduce the risk of mild bruising.

Aftercare is crucial to achieving the best results from your botox treatment. At Oracle Clinics, we provide expert advice to ensure a smooth healing process and excellent outcomes.

 

Immediate Care: Avoid touching the injection sites for at least 24 hours post-treatment to minimise the risk of infection.

 

Normal Activities: Resume most normal activities immediately but avoid strenuous exercise and activities that may cause excessive sweating for the first few days.

 

Skin Care: Keep the treated areas clean and follow any skincare instructions provided by our Aesthetic Nurse.

 

Follow-Up: Schedule future treatments as advised to maintain your cosmetic appearance and address any emerging facial wrinkles or deep lines.
