WHAT CAN ANTI-WRINKLE INJECTIONS DO FOR ME? All anti-wrinkle procedures at Kiora are done personally by one of our two principle Cosmetic Specialists, Dr Grace Lin or Dr Neville Lee See, never by a nurse injector. They can precisely target specific facial muscles to achieve a large variety of cosmetic effects: frowns and crows' feet can be softened, the eyes can be enlarged and the lip lines can be smoothed. Most importantly, the major muscles for normal facial expression are left intact - preventing an unnatural "frozen" look. Injections can prevent wrinkles forming in the first place. Both Dr Lee See and Dr Lin have been with us continuously since 2005 allowing Kiora to offer safer and more consistent outcomes. Dr Neville Lee See is a consultant and trainer to major pharmaceutical companies (Ipsen Pty Ltd) and is heavily involved in training Doctors and Nurses in the safe use of cosmetic injectables.

NOT JUST FOR WRINKLES Advanced injectable techniques provide a safe and reliable way to achieve cosmetic outcomes traditionally requiring surgery. The face can be slimmed as an alternative to jaw reduction surgery. Dr Grace Lin has a special interest in the advanced uses of anti-wrinkle injections and is pioneer of introducing many innovative techniques from Asia into Australia. Dermal fillers can naturally and safely replace volume as an alternative to silicone implants in the nose, chin and cheeks. By carefully combining dermal fillers, lasers and anti-wrinkle injections surgical-like aesthetic outcomes can be achieved. At Kiora we aim to achieve a fresh, natural look whilst maintaining the natural balance of his patients' features. We have a reputation for performing procedures which make our patients look refreshed and youthful not "Hollywood Plastic"

WHAT ABOUT SAFETY? Anti-Wrinkle Injections have been in use for over 30 years. They are amongst the safest drugs in the world. Dosages forty times the standard cosmetic dose can be safely given to young children. Its safety profile is superior to panadol. The primary risk of the procedure is some mild bruising. The most feared risk is temporary eyelid heaviness. Dr Lin and Dr Lee See have an extremely low risk of this with only 8 reported cases in more than 30,000 procedures.

THE INJECTION TREATMENT A typical Anti-Wrinkle Injection treatment takes just 10 minutes and can be easily done during a lunch break. Each Anti-Wrinkle Injections treatment is personalised for a person's facial anatomy. Your Kiora Doctor determines the location and quantity of Anti-Wrinkle Injections required to achieve maximal effect for minimal cost. No anaesthetic is required. After your treatment, the effect of Anti-Wrinkle Injections develops over a 5-7 day period and lasts 3 to 6 months. Because the smoothing of the wrinkles is gradual, 9 out of 10 times people will comment on how “fresh and well” you look, and not be able to place what’s changed.

HOW DO ANTI-WRINKLE INJECTIONS WORK? Anti-Wrinkle Injections use a protein to soften wrinkles and smooth the skin. They work by blocking the the communication between nerves and muscles to precisely relax frowns, crows feet and other muscles. The treatment takes about 10 minutes and the result lasts about 4 months.

WHAT OUR ANTI-WRINKLE INJECTIONS TREATMENTS ARE NOT Anti-wrinkle injections are a revolution in cosmetic medicine but they are not magic. It will not radically alter your appearance nor make you look like you had a surgical face lift. It does not freeze your facial expressions. Expertly delivered anti-wrinkle injections will leave normal facial expressions intact.

NEEDLES? YOU USE NEEDLES? We know injections and luxury are not exactly synonymous concepts. At Kiora we do everything possible to minimize the anxiety. Our highly experienced Cosmetic Doctors use only the smallest needles, not much thicker than a human hair, to quickly and precisely target the required muscles areas. The needles are the same as those used twice daily by diabetic children and the brief sting is best described as being akin to an insect bite. For those of you particularly sensitive to needles anaesthetic creams can be applied beforehand so that even this brief sting is almost completely alleviated.

WILL MY LINES LOOK WORSE IF I STOP ANTI-WRINKLE INJECTIONS? No. The lines gradually revert to their pre-treated appearance over 6-12 months

CAN ANTI-WRINKLE BE COMBINED WITH OTHER PROCEDURES? Yes. Anti-Wrinkle Injections will work in concert to smooth and rejuvenate the skin. Dermal Fillers can restore volume to deep lines and chemical peels and can eliminate very fine skin lines.
