What are anti-wrinkle injections?
Anti-wrinkle injections use a prescription-only medicine to temporarily relax the muscles that cause expression lines.
When placed correctly, they soften movement in targeted areas without affecting the surrounding muscles or freezing your face.
Results develop over 10 to 14 days and typically last three to four months. With regular treatment over time, many patients find their lines soften further and results last longer.
Because this is a prescription only medicine, it can only be legally administered by or under the supervision of a qualified prescriber.
As an Independent Prescriber, Emma prescribes and delivers every treatment herself — there is no separate prescriber involved, and no shortcuts.
Areas treated
Anti-wrinkle injections can be used to address a range of concerns across the upper and lower face and neck. Emma treats the following areas:
Forehead lines
Horizontal lines across the forehead that become more pronounced with age and repeated expression. Treatment softens movement while keeping the brow in a natural, lifted position.
Crow's feet
Fine lines at the outer corners of the eyes that appear when you smile or squint. A conservative approach here preserves your natural expression while significantly softening the lines at rest
Neck (Nefertiti lift)
Injections along the jawline and into the neck muscles to lift and define the lower face, softening jowls and tightening the neck without surgery.
Other Areas
Bunny lines, gummy smile, lip flip, downturned mouth corners, and pebble chin can all be treated. Emma will assess which approach is right for you at consultation.
Frown lines (glabella)
The vertical lines between the eyebrows, often called the elevens. One of the most requested treatment areas and one of the most effective — results are typically very noticeable
Masseter Jaw Slimming
Anti-wrinkle injections into the masseter muscles to slim and define the jawline, reduce teeth grinding (bruxism) and relieve jaw tension. Results develop gradually over four to six weeks.
Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating)
Injections into the underarm area to significantly reduce excessive sweating. Results typically last six to nine months — considerably longer than standard facial treatment areas.
Not sure which area is right for you? That's exactly what your consultation is for.

What to expect at your appointment
Step 1 - Consultation
Every treatment at Aesthetics by Emma begins with a full consultation. Emma will discuss your concerns, assess your facial anatomy and muscle movement, and talk through realistic expectations. As an Independent Prescriber, Emma assesses and prescribes for every patient individually, there's no one size fits all approach here.
Step 2 - Treatment
The injections themselves take around 10–15 minutes. A very fine needle is used, and most patients find the treatment straightforward and well tolerated. No general anaesthetic or significant downtime is required
Step 3 - Results
Results begin to appear within 3–5 days, with the full effect visible at around 2 weeks. Emma offers a review appointment at this stage to assess the outcome and make any minor adjustments if needed
Step 4 - Maintenance
Anti-wrinkle treatments typically last 3–4 months, though this varies between individuals. With consistent treatment over time, many patients find their results last longer as the muscles gradually learn to relax
Frequently asked questions
Q: Is Botox safe?
A: Botulinum toxin has been used safely in medical and aesthetic practice for decades. When administered by a trained medical professional like a Registered Nurse, it is considered a very safe treatment. At Aesthetics by Emma, a full medical assessment is carried out before any prescription is issued
Q: Will I still be able to make expressions?
A: Yes, this is one of the most common concerns, and it's exactly why the technique matters. Emma's approach is always conservative, preserving your natural movement and expression while softening the lines that bother you
Q: Does it hurt?
A: Most patients describe the sensation as a very mild pinch. The needles used are extremely fine, and the treatment is quick. Any discomfort is minimal and brief
Q: How long does it last?
A: Results typically last between 3 and 4 months, depending on the individual, the area treated, and lifestyle factors. Consistent treatment over time can extend results for many patients.
Q: When will I see results?
A: You'll begin to notice the effects within 3–5 days, with the full result visible at around 2 weeks. A follow-up review is offered at this point
Q: Can I have anti-wrinkle injections if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
A: No, botulinum toxin is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Emma will discuss your full medical history at consultation to confirm your suitability for treatment.
Q: Do I need a consultation before treatment?
A: Yes, always. As an Independent Prescriber, Emma is required by law to assess and prescribe for each patient individually. This also means you'll always receive treatment that's genuinely appropriate for you
