Botox London

Botox, also known as botulinum toxin type A, is a popular cosmetic treatment used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines on the face. It works by temporarily paralyzing the muscles that cause these lines, resulting in smoother, more youthful-looking skin. Botox injections are a safe and effective way to achieve a more youthful appearance without the need for surgery. 

Botox is a neurotoxic protein produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. It has been used for medical and cosmetic purposes for over 50 years, and is one of the most widely researched and tested cosmetic treatments on the market.

If you're considering Botox injections in London, it's important to schedule a consultation with a qualified medical professional to discuss your options and ensure that the treatment is right for you. At The British Aesthetic Bar's Muswell Hill clinic in London, we take pride in providing our patients with safe, effective Botox consultations, and our team of experts is always available to answer any questions you may have. Treatment Areas Include -

• Frown lines, or glabellar lines, are the vertical "11" lines between the eyebrows caused by repeated muscle movements like frowning. Botox treatment targets the procerus muscle (above the nose) and corrugator muscles (near the inner eyebrows) to relax them, reducing the appearance of these lines for a smoother look. 

• A downturned mouth, also known as marionette lines, can create a sad appearance. Botox targets the depressor anguli oris (DAO) muscle to reduce downward pull, resulting in a more neutral or lifted expression. In some cases, the mentalis muscle in the chin is also treated for balance, helping achieve a more relaxed and youthful look. 

• Chin wrinkles, or chin dimpling, occur due to contractions of the mentalis muscle, creating an "orange peel" effect. Botox relaxes this muscle, smoothing the chin's surface and reducing fine lines, resulting in a more even and youthful appearance. 

• Nose wrinkles, or bunny lines, are fine lines on the sides of the nose caused by the overactive nasalis muscle during expressions like smiling. Botox relaxes this muscle, smoothing the lines while maintaining natural facial expressions for a more refreshed look. 

• Forehead wrinkles, or horizontal lines, form due to repeated eyebrow movements controlled by the frontalis muscle. Botox relaxes this muscle, smoothing existing lines and preventing deeper wrinkles while maintaining a natural look. 

• Crow’s feet are fine lines at the outer corners of the eyes caused by the contraction of the orbicularis oculi muscle during smiling or squinting. Botox relaxes this muscle, smoothing wrinkles while preserving natural facial expressions for a refreshed look. 

• Brow lift subtly raises the eyebrows for a more open, youthful look by relaxing the depressor muscles, including the orbicularis oculi, procerus, and corrugator muscles. Small amounts of Botox are also applied to the frontalis muscle to smooth lines without over-relaxation. This treatment enhances the eye area, creating a refreshed and alert appearance. 

• Lip Flip enhances the upper lip's appearance by relaxing the orbicularis oris muscle, causing the lip to flip outward slightly. This creates a fuller look without adding volume, resulting in a subtle, natural enhancement. 

• Smoker's lines are vertical wrinkles around the mouth caused by repetitive movements like smoking or pursing the lips. Botox relaxes the orbicularis oris muscle, reducing these lines for a smoother, more youthful appearance. 

Botox can also be used for: 

• Masseter
• Jawline Slimming
• Excessive Sweating or Hyperhidrosis.
