Muscle Relaxant
Wrinkle-Relaxing Consultations (Muscle Relaxant Treatments)
Wrinkle-relaxing treatments involve the use of a prescription-only medicine that may be considered to temporarily reduce muscle activity in specific areas of the face.
At Clerimis Ltd, we offer consultations for individuals wishing to discuss concerns related to facial muscle activity. All treatments are subject to an in-person consultation and clinical suitability assessment with a qualified prescriber.
This page is provided for information only and does not constitute an offer to provide prescription-only medicines without appropriate assessment.
What Are Wrinkle-Relaxing Treatments?
Wrinkle-relaxing treatments use a prescription-only medicine to temporarily reduce activity in targeted muscles. This may help soften the appearance of dynamic lines (lines formed by facial movement) or address certain muscle-related concerns.
These treatments are commonly discussed for areas such as:
Forehead lines
Frown lines
Lines around the eyes
Other muscle-related facial concerns
Suitability varies between individuals.
How Do They Work?
The prescribed medicine works by reducing nerve signals to selected muscles, which can decrease the strength of muscle contraction.
The effects are temporary. Treatment plans are individualised following clinical assessment.
