First Time Getting Anti-Wrinkle Injections: What To Expect

18 February 20267 min read

Your Journey to Smoother Skin

Anti-wrinkle injections (often referred to by brand names like Botox) are the most popular aesthetic treatment worldwide. If you're considering it for the first time, it's natural to have questions.

The Consultation

Every treatment at INNODERM begins with a thorough medical consultation. We discuss your goals, examine your facial expressions, and ensure the treatment is safe for you. We aim for a "refreshed" look, not a "frozen" one.

The Procedure

The actual injections take about 10-15 minutes. We use ultra-fine needles, so most patients describe the sensation as a tiny pinch. No downtime is required, making it a perfect "lunchtime" procedure.

Post-Treatment Care

To get the best results, we recommend:

  • Staying upright for 4 hours after treatment
  • Avoiding strenuous exercise for 24 hours
  • Not massaging the treated area

When Will I See Results?

Unlike fillers, anti-wrinkle injections are not immediate. You'll start to notice a softening of lines within 3-5 days, with the full effect visible at 14 days.

Conclusion

First-time treatments are our specialty. We take the time to answer every question and ensure you feel comfortable and confident in your choice.
