Wrinkle Reduction Treatments in Mascot, Sydney
Soften the lines, not the expression.
Wrinkle Reduction & Muscle-Relaxing Treatments

How it works
Every time you frown, squint or raise your brows, the muscles underneath fold the skin above them. Do that thousands of times a year and those folds start to stay etched in, even at rest.
Muscle-relaxing injections quiet the nerve signal to the specific muscle causing a line, so it contracts less forcefully — the skin above it stops creasing, and the line softens. Muscles you haven't treated keep working exactly as they always have.
Who it's for
It suits anyone noticing lines that only show up when they move — a frown line that appears when you concentrate, a forehead crease when you're surprised. It's also used beyond classic wrinkle areas: to slim an over-worked jawline, lift a heavy brow, soften neck banding, or reduce a gummy smile.
Not suitable if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or have certain neuromuscular conditions — we'll cover this properly at your consultation.
From consultation
to result.
A considered approach from your first consultation through to your final result — every stage designed around you.
Consultation
We talk through what bothers you when you frown, laugh, raise your brows or any other concerns you have then review your medical history, and map how your muscles move before a single unit is planned.

Treatment day
Skin is cleansed and injection points marked while you're upright and relaxed. The injections themselves take a few minutes — most people describe it as a quick series of small pinches.

The first 48 hours
Stay upright, keep your hands off the treated area, and skip strenuous exercise, saunas or facials. Everyday life carries on as normal.

Settling in
Movement starts to soften from around day 3. The muscle keeps relaxing over the following two weeks as the effect reaches its full depth.

Review & maintenance
We check your results at the two-week mark and fine-tune if needed. Most people return for a top-up every 3–4 months as movement gradually returns.

On you.
The same treatment can look different from one face to the next — not because of luck, but because these four things shape how it settles on you specifically.
Muscle strength
Naturally stronger muscles — often in people who train hard or pull expressive faces for a living — may need a touch more product to soften the same movement.
Skin quality
Thicker skin can hide fine lines even before treatment, while thinner skin tends to show the softening sooner.
Expression habits
A natural frowner and a natural smiler need different plans, even if they're pointing at the same line.
Facial symmetry
Almost no face is perfectly symmetrical to begin with — we work with your natural asymmetry, not against it.
If something feels new, don't panic.
Your face is doing something it isn't used to, so a few odd sensations in the first days are completely expected. Here's how to tell the difference between “that's just it settling in” and “I should call the clinic.”
Nothing to worry about
- Small bumps at the injection sites — these settle within 30–60 minutes.
- Mild redness or a faint bruise, which fades over a few days.
- A slight headache the evening of treatment.
- A feeling of tightness or heaviness as the muscle begins to settle.
- One brow sitting a touch higher than the other for the first week or two, before things even out.
- The treated area feeling slightly different to the touch, even though nothing looks different, for a day or so.
Get in touch if you notice
- A drooping eyelid or brow that hasn't started to lift after two weeks.
- Any difficulty swallowing, speaking or breathing.
- Blurred or double vision.
- Increasing redness, warmth, swelling or pus at an injection site.
- Anything that simply doesn't feel right to you — we'd always rather hear from you than have you sit with a worry.
