Wansford Health provides cosmetic injections in a medical setting. We aim to restore, maintain and enhance natural good looks without resorting to surgery.
The wrinkles and lines on our faces are the result of ageing, lifestyle, sun damage, genetics and use or overuse of facial muscles. Smoking, hormones and stress can make wrinkles worse and lead to premature wrinkling. Wrinkles which occur with ageing are caused by a variety of reasons and the treatment is assessed based on the cause. We assess these factors during your initial consultation and offer advice on ways to maintain your skin in the best possible way. However you cannot influence all these factors. This is where we can help with muscle relaxing injections to relax those muscles responsible for producing facial wrinkles.
The injection of a purified neurotoxin has a local effect of reducing muscle action and relaxing the muscle smoothing out the skin. The injection treatment has been used for over 20 years on thousands of patients to treat many neurological and eye disorders as well as reduction of wrinkles. The injections are prescription drugs which should only be used under medical supervision. The injection works by blocking nerve transmission between the nerve endings and the muscle fibres around the injection site to relax the muscle so that they don't contract. The untreated facial muscles contract in the normal way, allowing normal facial expression to be unaffected. The aim is to break the habit of frowning.
Over a year or two the excessive frowning habit can be broken. The commonly affected areas include forehead lines, frown lines between the eye brows and crows feet at the corners of the eyes. Treatment does not take very long usually about 20 minutes using a very fine needle in precise locations on the face. The first effects start after about 3 days and the complete effect is visible in 2 weeks. The effects of the treatment last 3-4 months.
Clinical studies indicate that treatments last longer over time so that you should require fewer injections in the future. However, this varies from patient to patient. Many wrinkles and lines are caused by making the same expression thousands of times and eventually a crease forms in the skin.
Common sites for expression lines are found between the brows, across the forehead and at the corners of the eyes. These lines in the upper part of the face are best treated with a muscle relaxant. The aim is to restore, maintain or enhance your natural looks while retaining your natural expressions.

Every member of this surgery are remarkable in every aspect of patient care. Extremely polite, helpful and very respectful of patients. Throughout Covid they have remained so professional and have such a strong work ethic as well as working well as a team. I can not praise them enough and also working in the Health Care setting i know how patients often lack understanding of how busy NHS staff are without the added stress of Covid. They are all worth their weight in gold. Priceless x
Kind, caring, understanding and compassionate staff, from the reception staff to the doctors, never had any complaints. I visit often due to ongoing health problems and I always find all staff go out of their way to be helpful and obviously genuinely care about their patients. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anybody.
