If you've studied our SkinGym benefits matrix you will have seen that we awarded Botulinum Toxin (known under various brand names in the UK including Vistabel and Dysport), and injectable fillers (e.g Restylane and Hydrafill), the best score for wrinkle reduction.
Our non invasive rejuvenation treatments, SkinGym and SkinSpa, are great for tackling skin thickness, tone and lift - and will reduce the appearance of wrinkles as a result - but muscle relaxants and injectable fillers remain the best way to control and diminish wrinkles.
Consequently its important that we offer these services to you so that you have the peace of mind that comes with receiving your injections in a Healthcare Commission clinic.

Your injections will be made at our clinic by Dr Nyree Whitley B.D.Sc (UMDS, University of London) who practices dentistry in a high profile practice in the North.
You may be surprised that a dentist is doing injectable cosmetic treatments but it is well known that dentists have the highest degree of expertise when it come to administering precision injections as painlessly as possible. As part of their very extensive training they learn about all aspects of the structure of the face and so are expert in making judgements about the outcomes of these types of injections. You are in very good hands!
Finally, Dr Whitley's experience has shown that the injections are best made in fully prepared skin that is as resilient and elastic as possible - so why not plan to have your injections a week or so after one of our SkinGym or SkinSpa treatments? For example, a Peptide or Pumpkin Enzyme peel will achieve high levels of skin smoothing as well as stimulating the rejuvenating process that will facilitate Nyrees placing of the injections. These sorts of peels normally require no recovery time they are non-ablative which means that usually you wont visibly shed skin - and will leave your skin feeling clean, soft, smooth and refreshed.
Are These Injections Safe?
Botulinum Toxin Type A (also known as Vistabel and Dysport) was initially developed to treat children with some eye conditions. Used properly it is very safe. There have however been some serious problems (including fatalities) with back street use of low grade muscle relaxants so its important for us to provide you with this high quality service.

Am I suitable for having these injections?
There are very few contraindications for either Botulinum Toxin or Fillers.
How long does it last? 
The effects of Botulinum Toxin injections will last about 3 months - (see picture on the right which shows the lady's forehead pre-injection, after 30 days, and again after 120 days as the injections wear off.) This can be prolonged if you use good skin care products (we recommend, and stock, the Skin Therapy Peptide range or Pretox).
The fillers either Restylane or Hydrafill - last about 6 months. Again, the benefits can be prolonged by using good skin care products which we will be happy to advise you on.
How do I get the best results?
By ensuring your skin is in good condition when you come in for your appointment. Dr Whitley recommends that, as a minimum, you have a peel (see our SkinSpa range for options) about a week before your injections. If you skin is showing more advanced signs of ageing you will get most benefit by joining the SkinGym programme designed to be the worlds most powerful 40 day skin rejuvenation programme before having your injections.
What does it cost?
Botulinum Toxin prices are:- 1 area £195, 2 areas £275, 3 areas £340. An area is crows feet (both sides), or frown, or forehead.
Fillers are charged by the syringe (enough for most treatments) at £350 per syringe.
