These fine lines appear around the eyes when you smile. Unfortunately, these lines can frame the eye, making you look older, and your eyes appear smaller. Having this area treated will help you feel more rested and brighter in the area. It won't change the way you smile or how your face looks when you smile - it will just clear the ageing lines that have appeared over time.
These horizontal lines appear on the upper forehead when you elevate your eyebrows. They can become deeper and more prominent in people who have a lot of expressions when talking or surprised. As the forehead is often the first area on the face we can see, these fine lines can be ageing and can also affect the way your makeup sits.
A very light treatment in this area can dramatically smooth out these lines without looking fake or affecting the level of your eyebrows
Frown lines are deep lines in-between your eyebrows often formed when concentrating or angry. If these are not treated, over time, a permanent line can appear called the '11's' lines.
By treating with an anti-wrinkle relaxant, as soon as the fine lines appear, you can prevent deep grooves from forming and becoming permanent.
Anti-wrinkle injections even twice yearly will dramatically decrease line formation and can clear fine lines permanently in this area.
The neck can give away your age. Muscles that pop out from the base of the neck to either side of your neck when you strain or talk are called the platysmal bands. They can be softened with treatment. When these tight stringy muscles are relaxed, it can give you a smoother, more youthful neck.

Botox is a popular treatment for hyperhidrosis This uses a weakened version of botulinum toxin A, which is gently injected into the affected area (usually the underarms).

Jaw clenching causes grinding damage on the teeth and a tight masseter muscle which creates tension headaches radiating from the neck up to the temple area.
