Anti-wrinkle injections, also known as neuromodulators or muscle relaxants, are a non-surgical cosmetic treatment used to temporarily reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.

Anti-wrinkle injections contain a purified form of botulinum toxin, which is injected into specific facial muscles. The toxin works by temporarily blocking nerve signals to the muscles, causing them to relax and reducing the contractions that lead to wrinkles.

Dermal fillers can be used to enhance or restore volume in various facial areas, including the lips, nasolabial folds (lines from the nose to the corners of the mouth) and marionette lines (lines from the corners of the mouth to the chin). The treatment area is cleansed, and a topical anesthetic may be applied to minimize discomfort. The filler is then injected into the targeted areas using a fine needle or cannula. The procedure is usually quick, and results can be seen immediately.

The results of dermal fillers are visible right away, although some swelling or bruising may be present initially. The duration of the effects varies depending on the type of filler used, the treated area, and individual factors. Generally, hyaluronic acid fillers last 6 to 18 months, while other types may have longer-lasting effects.
