The procedure itself is simple and safe. Anti wrinkle injections are performed with a very tiny needle into the desired area. Depending on the area treated, between 4-10 injections are necessary. Because the needle is so fine and only a small amount of liquid is used the pain is usually minor, like a sting for a few seconds. Once the injection is complete there is no discomfort. No sedation or local anaesthesia is required and as no recovery is required, patients can resume normal activities immediately.
