What Are Muscle Relaxing/Anti-Wrinkle Injections?

Anti-wrinkle injections, sometimes called 'wrinkle relaxing' and 'muscle relaxing' injections, are injectable treatments that temporarily reduce the activity of selected facial muscles. These muscles are responsible for repeated expressions such as frowning, raising the eyebrows or smiling, which can gradually lead to visible lines and wrinkles.

They are most commonly used to treat:

  • Forehead lines caused by raising the eyebrows
  • Frown lines between the brows
  • Crow’s feet around the eyes
  • Expression lines that make the face look tired, tense or stressed

There are many more areas we can treat too which are highlighted later on this page.

A lot of people search online for 'Botox', a well-known brand name, when looking for this type of treatment. However, that name refers to a specific prescription-only medicine. That is why we use terms such as anti-wrinkle injections, wrinkle relaxing treatment and treatment for expression lines.

The purpose of anti-wrinkle treatments are not to remove every line from the face. Lines are normal. Movement is normal. The aim is to soften the areas that are making you look more tired, angry or aged than you feel.

When placed carefully, anti-wrinkle injections can create a smoother, more refreshed appearance while still allowing your face to look natural.

What Can Muscle Relaxing/Anti-Wrinkle Injections Help With?

Anti-wrinkle injections can help soften lines caused by repeated facial movement. They can be used as a targeted treatment for one specific area, or as part of a wider plan to refresh the upper face.

Anti-wrinkle injections can help with:

Smoothing fine lines caused by facial expression (eg frowning & laughing)

Deeper lines that make you look tense, angry or stressed

Preventing deeper lines forming before they become a concern

A heavy or tired-looking upper face

Early signs of ageing caused by repeated movement

Balancing facial harmony by slimming the jawline

Stopping the gums from showing whilst smiling

Eliminating teeth grinding

Putting a stop to excessive sweating (e.g. under arms)

Muscle/Wrinkle Relaxing Treatments Available at Kiss Aesthetics

We offer a range of TOX injectable treatments designed to soften expression lines, reduce overactive muscle movement and refresh your appearance without changing who you are. Every treatment is planned around your facial anatomy, movement, concerns and goals, so your results look balanced, natural and tailored to YOU.


Forehead lines, frown lines and/or crows feet

Soften common expression lines, including forehead lines, frown lines and crow’s feet, for a more refreshed appearance.

Full Face Treatment / Botox for Anti-Ageing

A personalised anti-wrinkle treatment plan designed to soften and lift multiple areas to create a fresher, more rested appearance.

Lip Flip

We inject just above the top lip to relax the upper lip area, helping the lip appear slightly lifted without adding volume.

Gummy Smile

Helps reduce the appearance of excess gum show when smiling by relaxing the muscles that lift the upper lip too strongly.

Chin Dimpling

Softens the appearance of a dimpled, bumpy or “orange peel” chin by relaxing overactive chin muscles for a smoother look.

Bunny Lines

Softens the small lines on either side of the nose when you smile, laugh or scrunch your face, creating a smoother and more relaxed appearance.

Jaw Slimming

Helps relax the masseter muscles to soften a square jaw appearance and create a slimmer, more balanced lower face where suitable.

Teeth Clenching/Grinding

We'll relax the masseter muscles, helping to reduce jaw tension caused by teeth clenching or grinding.

Neck Bands (Plasma Bands)

Targets visible neck bands that pop out. This is a great anti-ageing treatment. The neck is usually a huge giveaway.

Downturned Mouth Corners

Helps lift the appearance of downturned mouth corners by relaxing the muscles that pull the corners of the mouth down.

Excessive Sweating (Hyperhidrosis)

Designed to reduce excessive underarm sweating where suitable, helping you feel more comfortable and confident.

ANTI-WRINKLE TREATMENT SUITABILITY

Are Anti-Wrinkle Injections Right for Me?

Anti-wrinkle injections may be right for you if your facial lines are starting to bother you, especially if they make you look tired, tense, angry or older than you feel.

You may notice that your frown lines are visible even when you are not frowning, or that your forehead lines sit in the skin even when your face is relaxed. You may feel that crow’s feet around the eyes are becoming more noticeable when you smile, or that your makeup is settling into fine lines.

Anti-wrinkle treatment can help soften these concerns, but the right approach depends on your face. Your muscle strength, natural expressions, brow position, skin quality and previous treatment history all matter.

PREVENTATIVE TREATMENT

Preventative Anti-Wrinkle Treatments

You do not need to wait until lines are deep before considering treatment. Anti-wrinkle injections can be a great preventative option for clients who are starting to notice expression lines when they smile, frown or raise their eyebrows.

Over time, repeated facial movement can cause lines to become more visible, even when your face is relaxed. By softening selected muscle movement early, wrinkle relaxing treatments may help prevent these lines from becoming deeper and more difficult to treat in the future.

Preventative treatment may be suitable if:

You are starting to notice fine lines from facial movement

Your frown lines, forehead lines or crow’s feet are becoming more visible

Makeup is beginning to settle into expression lines

You prefer subtle treatment before lines become deeper

You want a natural-looking result with movement still preserved

AWARD-WINNING INJECTABLES CLINIC

What to Expect From Your Muscle & Wrinkle Relaxing Treatment

Your appointment begins with a consultation. Your practitioner will discuss your concerns, assess your facial movement or muscle activity, and explain which treatment options may be suitable for you.

For anti-wrinkle injections, this may involve looking at how your forehead, frown lines or crow’s feet move when you make different facial expressions. For treatments such as jaw slimming, teeth clenching, gummy smile or lip flip, your practitioner will assess the specific muscles involved and whether this type of treatment is appropriate for your anatomy and goals.

Once your treatment plan has been agreed, the area will be cleansed and prepared. Small injections are then placed into carefully selected muscles to help soften movement, reduce overactivity or create a more balanced result, depending on the treatment being carried out.

Please remember, results are not immediate. Muscle relaxing treatments take time to work. Your final result will depend on the area , your muscle strength, your natural anatomy and how your body responds.

At Kiss Aesthetics, every treatment is planned carefully so your results look balanced, refreshed and still like YOU.

YOUR TOX QUESTIONS, ANSWERED

Frequently Asked Questions

What are muscle and wrinkle relaxing treatments?

Muscle and wrinkle relaxing treatments are injectable treatments used to temporarily reduce activity in selected muscles. Depending on the area treated, they may help soften expression lines, reduce overactive muscle movement or support concerns such as jaw clenching, gummy smile, lip flip, neck bands or excessive sweating.

Are these treatments the same as anti-wrinkle injections?

Anti-wrinkle injections are one type of muscle relaxing treatment. They are usually used to soften forehead lines, frown lines and crow’s feet. Other treatments, such as jaw slimming, teeth clenching treatment, lip flip and gummy smile treatment, use a similar principle but are designed for different concerns.

Is this treatment the same as Botox?

The results are the same as Botox. But Botox is a brand name. It refers to a prescription-only medicine. For this reason, we use treatment descriptions such as anti-wrinkle injections, wrinkle relaxing treatments and TOX injectables. Your practitioner can explain in more detail during your consultation.

How quick to anti-wrinkle injections take to work?

Results are not immediate. Most clients start to notice changes within a few days, with full results typically visible around 2 weeks after treatment. This can vary depending on the area treated and how your body responds.

How long do muscle relaxing results last?

Results usually last around 3 to 4 months, although this can vary from person to person. Areas such as jaw slimming or teeth clenching treatment may follow a slightly different treatment plan, which your practitioner will explain during your consultation.

Will I look frozen?

The aim is not to freeze your face. At Kiss Aesthetics, treatments are planned around your natural facial movement, anatomy and goals, so your result looks refreshed, balanced and still like YOU.

What areas can be treated?

Common treatment areas include forehead lines, frown lines, crow’s feet, jaw slimming, teeth clenching, lip flip, gummy smile, chin dimpling, downturned mouth, neck bands and excessive sweating.

Are muscle relaxing treatments suitable for everyone?

No, they are not suitable for everyone. Your practitioner will review your medical history, assess the treatment area and discuss your goals before confirming whether treatment is appropriate.

Is Botox good for anti-ageing?

If you're looking for a solution for facial heaviness caused by ageing, our muscle/wrinkle relaxing treatment is a great option. We'll target the areas that pull the face down, giving that aged, heavy appearance. You'll achieve a gorgeous, refreshed, lifted look.
