Common Concerns
Upper face: Forehead, Frown line, Crow’s feet
These are the most common areas to be treated by neuromodulators. Forehead (frontalis) and frown lines (glabella) are usually treated together as they both work opposite each other.
Bunny lines (Nasalis)
Bunny lines is beautiful feature for some noses but if you need this to be addressed, we can help you.
Masseters
Some of us are jaw-clenchers and this leads to formation of a more pronounced jaw area. Neuromodulators will help in relaxing this muscle which after repeated treatment will help in decreasing the masseters giving a jaw slimming effect.
Nefertiti Lift & Neck bands (Platysma)
Neuromodulators helps in relaxing the platysma which also plays a role in delaying formation of jowls and helps define the jawline.
Hyperhydrosis
Excessive sweating that isn't usually caused by heat or exertion is known as hyperhidrosis. Effect is variable between clients.
Chronic Migraine Relief
Neuromodulators can help in reducing migraine pain for some clients. This needs to be discussed with their GP as certain criteria must be met prior to this procedure. Please be guided that more than one set of injections maybe needed.
