Anti-Wrinkle Treatments in the heart of Gerrards Cross, Buckinghamshire for Smooth, Natural Results
Precision-placed botulinum toxin injections to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, revealing a refreshed, youthful appearance while maintaining your natural expressions
What is Anti-Wrinkle Treatment?
Anti-wrinkle treatment using botulinum toxin is a minimally invasive, doctor-led procedure designed to smooth fine lines and wrinkles that develop from repeated facial expressions over time. This treatment works by temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause these dynamic wrinkles, resulting in a softer, more youthful appearance.
Dr. Shaleen takes a conservative, artistic approach to anti-wrinkle treatments, ensuring results look natural and harmonious with your facial features. The goal is to help you look refreshed and rested, not frozen or overdone.

Consultation & Assessment
Dr. Shaleen will discuss your concerns, aesthetic goals, and medical history. She'll assess your facial anatomy and muscle movement to create a personalised treatment plan that achieves natural-looking results.
Preparation
The treatment area will be cleansed. Topical numbing cream can be applied if desired, though most patients find the treatment very comfortable without it.
Injection
Using ultra-fine needles, Dr Shaleen will make precise micro-injections into the targeted muscles. You may feel a small pinch or slight pressure, but discomfort is minimal and brief. The entire injection process typically takes just a few minutes.
Aftercare Instructions
Dr Shaleen will provide you with aftercare instructions. You can return to normal activities immediately, with a few simple precautions for the first 24 hours (such as avoiding lying down for 4 hours and strenuous exercise).
Results
Results begin to appear within 3-5 days, with full effects visible at 10-14 days. You'll enjoy smoother, refreshed skin.
Follow-Up & Maintenance
A complimentary review appointment is offered at 2 weeks to assess your results and make any minor adjustments if needed. Subsequent maintenance treatments are typically scheduled every 3-4 months.

Aftercare Guidelines
Follow these simple steps to ensure optimal results and minimise any discomfort
First 4-6 Hours
Stay upright and avoid lying down or bending over for at least 4 hours to prevent the product from migrating. Avoid touching or massaging the treated areas. No strenuous exercise. Skip makeup if possible on treated areas.
First 24-48 Hours
Avoid heat exposure including saunas, steam rooms, hot tubs, or sunbathing. Postpone facials, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, or laser treatments for at least 2 weeks. Limit alcohol consumption. Avoid blood-thinning medications if medically safe. Be gentle with skincare.
What You Can Do
Exercise the treated muscles gently. Apply ice packs wrapped in a clean cloth for 10 minutes if swelling occurs. Stay hydrated. Sleep on your back if possible. Continue normal activities — most daily activities can be resumed immediately.
Common Side Effects
Mild redness at injection sites, small bumps that fade within 30 minutes, minor bruising (can be covered with makeup after 4 hours), slight tenderness, and mild headache treatable with paracetamol. Contact Dr Shaleen immediately if you experience any unusual symptoms.

Most patients experience minimal discomfort. The needles used are ultra-fine, and the injections feel like small pinpricks. Some areas may be more sensitive than others, but the entire procedure is very quick. If you're concerned about discomfort, topical numbing cream can be applied before treatment.
Results typically last between 3-4 months, though this can vary depending on factors such as muscle strength, metabolism, and lifestyle. With regular treatments, some patients find their results last longer as the muscles become trained to relax. Dr. Shaleen will recommend an optimal treatment schedule during your consultation.

You'll begin to notice improvements within 3-5 days after treatment, with full results visible at 10-14 days. This is when the botulinum toxin has fully taken effect and the muscles have relaxed. Dr. Shaleen may schedule a follow-up appointment around the 2-week mark to assess your results and make any necessary adjustments.
Most healthy adults over 18 are suitable candidates for anti-wrinkle treatment.
