Botulinum Toxin

Xeomin®, Botox® and Dysport®

  • Frown (Glabellar) Lines

    Vertical “11” lines between the brows are softened by relaxing the overactive muscles in this area. This helps to appear less angry.

  • Forehead

    Treatment can smooth horizontal lines on the forehead. Small injections gently relax the muscle activity that causes these creases, creating a softer and more refreshed appearance.

  • Crows Feet

    Fine lines around the outer corners of the eyes can be treated. By reducing the crinkling effect, the area looks smoother and reduces the appearance of ageing.

  • Blepharospasm

    Blepharospasm is a disorder that causes involuntary spasms of the muscles around the eyes. This leads to frequent blinking, eyelid closure, and in severe cases, functional blindness. Symptoms can usually be managed with carefully placed injections.

  • Hyperhidrosis

    This treatment is for underarm sweating by blocking the signals that activate sweat glands. This offers relief for those experiencing excessive perspiration.
