Anti-Wrinkle Injections
Anti-wrinkle injections are an effective way to treat fine lines and wrinkles. At BalaBala Laser Clinic, we strive to give you natural looking results for a refreshed, youthful look.
Benefits & Results
How do anti-wrinkle injections work?
Anti-wrinkle injections treat fine lines and wrinkles by reducing muscle contraction. When certain muscles are relaxed, they no longer contract and create wrinkles on the skin's surface. This is particularly effective for dynamic wrinkles, which are caused by repetitive muscle movements, such as smiling, frowning, or squinting.
By reducing muscle activity in the treated areas, muscle relaxant injections can smooth out wrinkles and lines, providing a more youthful appearance.

Common Questions
Who is suitable for anti-wrinkle injections?
Anti-wrinkle injections are a safe and effective treatment for anyone over the age of 18 years of age who is looking to treat or prevent fine lines and wrinkles. Anti-wrinkle injections can also be used to slim the face such as the jawline by relaxing the muscles in this area.
What brands of anti-wrinkle injections do you have?
Due to strict TGA regulations on the advertising of cosmetic injections, we cannot disclose the brand names of our anti-wrinkle injections or dermal fillers. At BalaBala Laser Clinic, we only use the world’s leading brands that are synonymous with anti-wrinkle injections. At your complimentary skin consultation, we will advise on a suitable anti-wrinkle brand for your desired outcomes.
What can I expect after the treatment?
There is no downtime after anti-wrinkle injections. Results will begin to appear about 2-3 days after your treatment, reaching their full effect within around 7 days. Two weeks after your anti-wrinkle injections, our Registered Nurses will do a complimentary review for you. This allows us to monitor your results and do any touch ups if required.
How long do anti-wrinkle injections last?
As a general guideline, anti-wrinkle injections last for about 3-4 months. However, this varies from person to person. For optimal results, we recommend booking an appointment with your cosmetic injector every 3 months.
Do anti-wrinkle injections hurt?
Anti-wrinkle injections are not particularly painful. You may feel a slight prick or a pinching feeling when the needle pierces the skin. However, this sensation is short.
When will I see results?
The timeline for results from anti-wrinkle injections may vary from person to person, as well as the brand of anti-wrinkle injections used. Typically, you can expect to see initial improvements within 3 to 7 days after the procedure. However, the full effect may take up to two weeks.
Can anti-wrinkle injections smooth all wrinkles?
While anti-wrinkle injections are effective at reducing dynamic wrinkles (caused by muscle movement), they may not completely smooth all wrinkles. Static wrinkles (wrinkles that are present without movement) are typically deeper and may require different treatments. Dermal fillers or laser skin resurfacing treatments are more suitable for treating static wrinkles.
Can anti-wrinkle injections help prevent wrinkles?
Anti-wrinkle injections can be used preventatively to minimize the formation of wrinkles. By relaxing muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles, these injections can help delay the onset of fine lines and wrinkles, especially in areas prone to early signs of ageing.
What's the difference between anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers?
Anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers serve different purposes. Anti-wrinkle injections help to relax muscles to reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles, like crow's feet and frown lines. On the other hand, dermal fillers add volume to the skin, filling in static wrinkles and restoring lost facial volume, giving a plump, youthful appearance. Both treatments are non-surgical, but they target different aspects of aging and can often be used together for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
What are the alternatives to wrinkle relaxing injections for wrinkle reduction?
For those who are after non-invasive alternatives to anti-wrinkle injections, you may consider the following treatments:
Thermage FLX: Thermage is a non-invasive radiofrequency treatment that tightens the skin and stimulates collagen production to reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
Ultherapy: Ultherapy uses ultrasound technology to lift and tighten sagging skin, reducing wrinkles and fine lines.
Fotona 4D Laser: Fotona 4D Laser is a cutting-edge laser treatment that addresses skin laxity and wrinkles, while also improving the appearance of skin texture and tone.
