Anti-Wrinkle Injections
Amazing anti-wrinkle treatments made for you
Relatively non-invasive, anti-wrinkle injections at The Skin Lab's Killarney clinic provide a youthful glow to your skin. A natural part of the aging process is the introduction of visible lines on the skin. When you first notice lines on your face, these are what’s known as ‘dynamic wrinkles’ and they generally disappear when the muscles in your face relax.
Over a period of time however, it’s possible that more permanent lines will appear and remain even when your muscles do relax, again, this is a natural part of the aging process.
Anti-wrinkle injections relax the muscles and inhibit nerve signals – stopping the contraction. It sounds scarier than it is, and in essence, these injections stop the muscle’s ability to contract, giving you a fresh look.
