WRINKLE TREATMENTS MELBOURNE

Do you think your skin’s condition makes you appear older than you are? Do you want a non-invasive treatment for eliminating those wrinkles and creases?

Dr Jaclyn Wong administers anti-wrinkle injections to the face to reduce the visible symptoms of aging by relaxing the muscles that cause wrinkles.

As we get older, wrinkles appear-this is due to the collagen and elastin in our skin breaking down with time. Wrinkles are caused by sun exposure, smoking, drinking, and gravity. As you age, your skin becomes drier, less elastic, and thinner, resulting in sagginess, creases, and dullness.

What are wrinkle treatments?

At Dr Jaclyn Wong’s clinic, wrinkle treatments involve the use of prescription-only medicines to reduce the appearance of lines caused by facial muscle movement. These treatments are administered following a thorough consultation to assess your concerns, medical history, and suitability.

Wrinkle treatments work by temporarily relaxing targeted facial muscles to soften the appearance of lines such as frown lines, forehead lines, and crow’s feet. Results vary between individuals and typically last around 3 to 4 months. Ongoing treatments are often required to maintain your desired results.

Important Information

• Consultation Requirement: All patients require a consultation with our doctor before receiving wrinkle treatments. This ensures suitability, allows discussion of risks, benefits, and alternative options, and obtains the necessary prescription in accordance with Australian regulations.
• Potential Risks and Side Effects: As with any medical procedure, wrinkle treatments carry risks and side effects, which may include redness, swelling, bruising at injection sites, headache, drooping of the eyelid or eyebrow, and asymmetry. These will be discussed with you in detail during your consultation.
• Results Disclaimer: Individual results vary depending on factors such as anatomy, metabolism, and treatment goals. Wrinkle treatments are not suitable for everyone.

How long do wrinkle treatment results last?

The effects of wrinkle treatments generally last between 3 to 4 months. However, this can vary depending on several factors, including:

• Your individual metabolism and lifestyle factors, which affect how quickly your body processes the treatment.
• The area treated and the dose administered.
• Frequency of treatments over time – some patients notice results last longer with consistent maintenance treatments.

After the effects wear off, muscle movement gradually returns to normal, and lines may reappear. To maintain results, repeat treatments are typically required every 3 to 4 months, as advised by Dr Wong based on your personalised treatment plan.
