BOTOX SOUTHEND-ON-SEA, ESSEX
What is Botox?
Botulinum Toxin A (BOTOX®) is a natural protein that blocks muscular contractions and so relaxes the affected muscle. Unlike some cosmetic medical treatments, they’re suitable for virtually anyone who has wrinkles or other skin lines that they want to remove.
How does Botox work?
Botox relaxes the injected facial muscles, causing them to appear smoother and preventing new wrinkles from forming. They are most effective for expression lines around the eyes and forehead, and the results will typically last for 3-6 months. This is different to dermal fillers, which add volume to the wrinkled area rather than relaxing the muscle beneath. Botox targets the cause, whereas fillers target the effect. Deep wrinkles that are apparent even when the muscle is relaxed are better candidates for fillers than Botox.
What is Botox a suitable treatment for?
As well as cosmetic use, BOTOX® has therapeutic uses such as treatment of overactive sweat glands, headaches and teeth grinding. BOTOX® is an FDA approved drug, it has been used within medicine for over four decades and has no known adverse effects. BOTOX® does not reach any other part of your body other than the part it’s injected into, it is administered in such a way that it only affects your muscles and sweat glands.

ARE BOTOX AND FILLER THE SAME THING?
Botox relaxes the injected facial muscles, causing them to appear smoother and preventing new wrinkles from forming. They are most effective for expression lines around the eyes and forehead, and the results will typically last for 3-6 months. This is different to dermal fillers, which add volume to the wrinkled area rather than relaxing the muscle beneath. Botox targets the cause, whereas fillers target the effect. Deep wrinkles that are apparent even when the muscle is relaxed are better candidates for fillers than Botox.
WILL I LOOK “FROZEN” WITH ANTI-WRINKLE INJECTIONS?
That depends on how much is injected. We are always more on the conservative side and are happy to top it up if you want some more for free 2 weeks later. That way, we build-up to the dose that works for you. Less is better, to begin with. We always document how much we use then we learn what dose works best for you so we know how much to start with next time.

ARE THERE ANY SIDE EFFECTS TO BOTOX?
Like most cosmetic treatments, some side effects can occur when choosing Botox in Essex. We advise against Botox during breastfeeding and pregnancy, or if you have any allergies to Botulinum Toxin®️. Some clients report mild bruising, while some may experience a headache after having the treatment.
We always warn clients to expect some bruising when choosing Botox in Southend, however, it depends on how prone you are to bruising. Some medications mean you are more prone to bleeding or bruising (e.g. aspirin). But bruising is always temporary and doesn’t affect the final result. Other things to expect are swelling, redness, discomfort and a small risk of infection (so follow instructions given!)
