Many patients in Essex ask us about the dos and donts with Botox regarding their treatment with antiwrinkle injections.

Azzalure is Botulinum Toxin Type A which really treats frown lines with care. It is a purified protein which is meticulously injected into areas of the face like the glabellar lines, Forehead lines and the crows feet around the eyes. It helps the muscles of the face to temporarily relax and hence soften your facial features and help you to reverse the signs of ageing.

Although many patients in our dental practice in Essex have not heard of Azzalure, its active ingredient-Botulinium Toxin Type A has beenused cosmetically for more than 10 years and certain medical conditions in the United Kingdom for over 20 Years.

Azzalure is now licensed to treat frown lines but is on a prescrption only basis with a qualified doctor or dentist.

Before we use Azzalure on your face, we will remove any make up and disinfect your skin and then study your facial muscles to see how they work as everyone is different.

These injections are virtually painless as we use fine diabetic needles – however a local anaesthetic cream can be used prior to treatment. Tiny bruising or bleeding may occur which is very temporary.

The whole procedure will take approx. 15 minutes and you can usually return to work on the same day.

The benefits of Azzalure normally takes on average of 2 to 3 days to start working and usually last up to 4 months.
