Botox is an extremely popular treatment with an excellent safety record- especially when administered by our specially trained and highly experienced clinicians at our state-of-the-art clinic in Guildford.

Our clinicians have gained an enviable reputation in using botox for complex medical disorders including craniofacial pain, migraine, headache, temporomandibular joint disorders and hyperhydrosis.

Whilst the majority of our botox treatments are for medical conditions (e.g. craniofacial pain, migraine, headache, hyperhydrosis and temporomandibular joint disorders) we also undertake some aesthetic treatments using botox.

Scientific studies have shown that repeated use of certain facial muscles causes creasing of the skin in areas of greatest use.

In addition, the ageing process causes a decrease in collagen and elastin production in the skin, so that with time, these areas of over use become damaged and unflattering lines become more permanent, producing what are commonly known as ‘frown lines’, ‘forehead creases’, ‘crows feet’ or ‘wrinkles’.

Botox treatment involves the injection with an ultra fine needle of a highly purified, laboratory produced protein derivative of Botulinum toxin into these facial muscle groups, which weakens and relaxes them.

Hence by reducing movement in these areas, the skin stops being creased and is allowed to recover, causing these unflattering lines to soften or in many cases fade away.

We recommend patients refrain from vigorous excercise directly after treatment, that they do not lie down immediately afterwards or that they do not fly for 2 to 3 days after treatment.

We also advise that this treatment is not available to expectant or breast feeding mothers, patients taking aminoglycoside antibiotics, or those suffering from certain neuromuscular disorders and taking certain medications.
