Relaxing Lines & Wrinkles

Facial wrinkles are part of the ageing process and are exacerbated by a number of factors, including exposure to the sun and weather, exposure to toxins from cigarette smoking and unhealthy dietary habits. If you're thinking of smoothing out those frown lines between your eyebrows, softening the crow's feet around your eyes, or smoothing the lines on your forehead, then line and wrinkle relaxing micro-injections are the answer.

Wrinkle relaxers or 'Line Tamers' as we call them at Brisbane Cosmetic Clinic are an increasingly popular nonsurgical treatment for a quick and easy method to rejuvenate. The tiny injections work to temporarily relax the facial muscles, which pull on the skin to make the wrinkles and lines.

The substance injected into the muscles is a purified form of a protein, which, when injected in small doses into specific muscles blocks the chemical signals that cause muscles to contract. When the muscles can't tighten, the skin flattens and appears smoother and less wrinkled.
