At High Grade House Skin Clinic Norwich, Our anti-wrinkle injections utilize small amounts of Botulinum Toxin (BOTOX™) administered into targeted muscles with a fine needle. This process effectively smooths lines and wrinkles by inhibiting muscle movement, which helps prevent the formation of dynamic lines and creases. As the treated muscles relax, the skin appears naturally softer and rejuvenated, providing a fresh, youthful appearance.
While Botox is active, it prevents deeper lines from developing since the skin is not subjected to repeated creasing. Many individuals opt for this treatment as a proactive measure to halt the progression of wrinkles. It is important to note that anti-wrinkle injections do not eliminate deep, established lines; however, they can slightly reduce their appearance and prevent them from worsening. For deep lines, additional treatments such as dermaplaning, laser resurfacing, or dermal fillers may be recommended. During your appointment, your practitioner will assess your needs and advise whether Botox or an alternative treatment is most appropriate for you.

What Are Dermal Fillers? Dermal fillers are injectable substances used to restore lost volume, smooth out wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. They are typically made from a variety of materials, with the most common being hyaluronic acid (HA), calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA), poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA), and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). Each type of filler has different properties, making it suitable for different areas of the face.
Benefits of Dermal Fillers:
Common Treatment Areas:
Safety and Considerations: While dermal fillers are generally safe when administered by trained professionals, there can be temporary side effects such as swelling, bruising, or redness. In rare cases, more serious complications may occur, such as infections or lumps, which is why it’s essential to choose an experienced injector.
The "Russian lip" technique is a popular method of lip augmentation that focuses on creating a more defined, lifted, and natural-looking lip shape. Unlike traditional lip filler methods, the Russian lip technique uses a specific injection technique to achieve a fuller, more defined shape, especially in the upper lip.
Benefits of Russian Lips:
This technique is especially popular for people seeking a sophisticated, elegant lip enhancement, and it’s favored by those who prefer a more structured and natural look, as opposed to a very plump or puffy appearance.

It's important for patients to understand the differences between Botox and dermal fillers, as each serves distinct purposes in cosmetic treatments.
Botox is primarily used for reducing the appearance of dynamic wrinkles—those caused by muscle movement. By blocking the nerve signals to specific muscles, Botox effectively relaxes them, leading to a smoother appearance in areas like frown lines, forehead lines, and crow’s feet. The effects typically last for three to six months, after which muscle action gradually returns and the wrinkles reappear.
Dermal fillers, on the other hand, are designed to add volume and fullness to the skin. They can be used to treat static wrinkles—those that are present even when facial muscles are at rest—by filling in areas that have lost volume due to aging, such as the cheeks, nasolabial folds, or under the eyes. Hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body, is commonly used in these fillers and can provide immediate results, with effects lasting from six months to over a year, depending on the product used.
During a consultation, a qualified practitioner will evaluate your specific concerns and recommend a tailored treatment plan. This might include using both Botox and dermal fillers in combination to achieve the most harmonious and youthful results. By addressing both muscle movement and volume loss, patients can achieve a more refreshed and rejuvenated appearance.
As with any cosmetic treatment, it's vital to consult with a licensed and experienced healthcare provider to ensure safety and effectiveness.
Although they are very rare, there are some adverse effects associated with having Botox. After treatment you’ll receive full aftercare instructions, including a list of potential side effects. They include:
Excessive bruising, swelling or redness at injection site
Infection
Nausea, headache or flu-like symptoms
Occasional numbness
Drooping eyebrow or upper eyelid
Red and swollen eyelids
Muscle weakness1
Allergic reactions
Rash and itchiness
Facial swelling
If you experience any of the above after having Botox®, speak to your practitioner immediately.
Botox and Filler is an injectable treatment however the treatment is carried out with a very fine needle, so you should not be in too much discomfort. Following the treatment, you may experience mild redness, pain, itching, discoloration or tenderness at the injection sites but again these symptoms do not last long. You can use a cold pack to reduce any redness or swelling following the aftercare advice of your practitioner. If you have any concerns regarding your treatment these can be discussed in a free consultation.
You can go back to your regular routine immediately after your treatment although we do advise that you avoid exercise for 24 hours, extreme temperatures for 2 days, dental procedure for at least 2 weeks and then no further cosmetic treatment for at least 2 days.
