Anti-Wrinkle Treatments
Male treatments for wrinkles have grown rapidly in popularity over recent years, with up to 30% of our patients being men.
One of the most common male concerns we see here at GentleMax Clinics, is wrinkles. Be this on the forehead or around the eyes in the form of crow’s feet (from a life full of laughter!), we are able to help restore your more youthful appearance and banish tired, weathered eyes using anti wrinkle injections. Most commonly men are looking for a solution that looks natural and won’t have their colleagues raising eyebrows over why you suddenly look so great. We take a subtle approach to the use of anti wrinkle injections, masterfully applied to relax the facial muscles and smooth the skin whilst maintaining muscle movement so you don’t appear ‘frozen’.
At GentleMax Clinics, We are proud to use Botulinum toxin by Allergan, one of the safest and most renowned brands.

Frequently Asked Questions
Anti wrinkle injections are generally a comfortable treatment that are well tolerated. You may feel a little sensitivity at the point of application, though this can be minimised through the use of a topical Topical anaesthetic prior to treatment. Typically the area around the eyes is sensitive, but we will be sure to minimise any discomfort during your treatment.
As with any injectable treatment, there is a possibility of some minor side effects. Most commonly, these may include: bruising, swelling, redness, tenderness, itching and sensitivity at the point of application. This will typically subside quickly post treatment. Any potential side effects will be discussed during a pre-treatment consultation with our specialists.
It is important that we ensure your final result is as natural looking as possible. We use anti wrinkle injections to eradicate or lessen the appearance of wrinkles. This treatment works by relaxing the muscles that cause the formation of wrinkles as the skin sits in groves created by repetitive muscle movement. You can expect to see much reduced appearance of lines and wrinkles at the point of application and immediate surrounding area giving you a more youthful look. Post treatment, the result will continue to develop, and you will enjoy a refreshed and rejuvenated look to your upper face for months to come.
We use FDA approved Botox injections for the treatment of upper face wrinkles. This treatment has been through many studies to prove its effectiveness, and it has an excellent safety record. As with any injectable treatment, you should ensure that your practitioner is highly skilled. Botulinum Toxin A is a prescription only medicine, and therefore should only be administered by a Doctor, Dentist or Prescribing Nurse. It is important that you always check the credentials of your practitioner prior to treatment.
