Botox and Anti-Wrinkle Injections in Teddington

Botox and anti-wrinkle injections in Teddington

Want Botox in Teddington from a clinician who works on faces every week? Our anti-wrinkle injections soften the lines that come from years of smiling, frowning and squinting, and they are given by experienced dentists here on Teddington High Street. You get a proper consultation first, honest advice on what will actually help, and a natural result that still looks like you.

What Botox actually does

Botox is a purified protein that relaxes the small muscles that crease the skin when you make expressions. When those muscles ease off, the lines above them soften. It is the same treatment people ask for as anti-wrinkle injections, wrinkle relaxers or muscle-relaxing injections, and it is one of the facial aesthetics treatments we are asked about most often.

We treat three main areas. Forehead lines are the horizontal creases that show when you raise your eyebrows. Frown lines are the vertical “11s” that sit between your brows. Crow’s feet are the fine lines that fan out from the corners of your eyes. Some people want all three softened, others just one. We tailor it to your face rather than following a template.

Which areas we treat

• Forehead
  Targets the horizontal lines when you raise your brows. A smoother forehead with softer movement.
• Frown lines
  Targets the vertical “11” lines between the brows. A more relaxed, less tired look.
• Crow’s feet
  Targets fine lines at the outer corners of the eyes. Softer creasing when you smile.

Who gives your treatment

This part matters. Botox is a prescription medicine and the face is a detailed piece of anatomy. Every treatment at Kirby Dental Practice is led by a dentist with years of hands-on experience in facial aesthetics, so you are cared for by someone who understands muscles, nerves and facial proportion. We check your medical history, talk through what you want to change, and we will not push you toward anything you do not need.

If dermal fillers would suit you better for volume or contouring, we will tell you. Botox and fillers do different jobs, and often the best plan uses one, not both.

What happens on the day

Your appointment starts with a short assessment. We map the muscles we are treating, clean the skin, then place a series of tiny injections with a very fine needle. The whole thing usually takes ten to fifteen minutes and there is little to no downtime, so most people head straight back to work or the school run.

You will start to see a change within a few days, and the result settles fully by around two weeks. We will often book a quick review so we can check you are happy and fine-tune if anything needs a touch more. For most people the effect lasts around three to four months before it gradually fades, which is why many patients book a top-up a few times a year.

Is it safe?

When it is given by a trained clinician, serious problems are rare. The most common effects are minor and temporary, such as a small bruise or a little tenderness where the needle went in. We will go through simple aftercare with you, like avoiding rubbing the treated area, skipping heavy exercise and staying upright for a few hours. Because we assess suitability first, we can flag anything in your history that means treatment is not right for you.

FAQs

How much does Botox cost in Teddington?

Price depends on how many areas you are treating and how much product you need, so we quote after a consultation. That way you only pay for what genuinely helps. Ask us for a tailored quote and we will give you a clear figure before you commit to anything.

How long does Botox last?

For most people the effect lasts around three to four months. It fades gradually rather than stopping all at once. Many patients book a top-up two or three times a year to keep the result looking steady and consistent.

Does it hurt?

Not much. The needle is very fine and each injection takes a second or two, so most people describe a quick, sharp scratch and nothing more. There is usually no need for numbing cream, and you can drive yourself home straight afterwards.

Will I still look like me?

Yes. We aim for a softer, fresher version of your own face, not a frozen one. We start conservatively, especially on a first visit, and you can always add a little more at your review if you would like.

When will I see results?

You will notice a change within a few days, and the full effect settles by about two weeks. We usually offer a review at that point so we can check you are pleased and adjust if needed.

Can I have Botox and fillers together?

Sometimes, yes. They treat different things, since Botox relaxes muscles and fillers restore volume. At your consultation we will tell you honestly whether one or both would help, and we keep dermal fillers as a separate treatment so you only get what you need.

Is there any downtime?

Very little. You can get back to normal life the same day. We will ask you to avoid rubbing the area, heavy exercise and lying flat for a few hours, and that really is about it.
