Botulinum Toxin (Anti-Wrinkle Injections)
Botulinum Toxin Injections in Brattleby, Lincoln
Our anti-wrinkle treatments focus on subtle refinements – softening lines, enhancing natural contours, and ensuring results that are both effective and beautifully undetectable. Every treatment is tailored to complement your unique features and personal beauty aspirations.
Botulinum toxin remains the single most popular treatment in aesthetics to prevent overworking of facial muscles that create and deepen fine lines and wrinkles. It is a prescription medicine that is injected into muscles to temporarily reduce lines caused by repetitive muscle movement such as frown lines between the eyebrows (glabella lines), forehead lines caused when raising your eyebrows and the area around the side of the eyes (crow’s feet). It can also be used ‘off label’ to treat other areas such as excessive visible gum when smiling (gummy smile), upper lip lines (bar coding or smokers lines), downturned mouth, and a dimpled chin.
Treatment Areas
- Frown (softening the vertical or horizontal creases between the brows)
- Forehead (smoothing horizontal lines)
- Crows feet (reducing fine lines around the eyes for a fresher look and open the eye area)
- Brow lift (subtly lifting the brows to create a more open eye area)

How It Works
Botulinum toxin injections work by temporarily relaxing specific facial muscles that contribute to dynamic wrinkles, lines formed by repeated muscle movements such as frowning, pouting, squinting, or smiling. By reducing muscle activity in targeted areas, the overlying skin becomes smoother and fine lines soften.
What to Expect During Treatment
Consultation: A bespoke assessment to review your medical history, aesthetic goals, and muscle pattern. A treatment plan can then be agreed.
Procedure: Small amounts of botulinum toxin are injected with a fine needle into designated muscles. The process typically takes 15–30 minutes.
Comfort & Downtime: Minimal discomfort and virtually no downtime. Most people return to their routine immediately afterwards.
Results & Longevity
Most patients begin to notice improvements within a few days, with full results developing around 1–2 weeks. The effects are temporary and usually last 3–4 months, depending on the individual, after which you can choose to repeat treatment to maintain results.
With regular treatments, we can help you maintain a refreshed, youthful look while preventing deeper lines from forming

How Anti-Wrinkle and Anti-Ageing Injections Are Performed
At Corium Clinic in Lincoln, anti-wrinkle and anti-ageing injections are carried out using precise, minimally invasive techniques designed to deliver natural-looking results with very little downtime.
Before any treatment takes place, a detailed consultation is carried out with one of our experienced medical professionals. During this appointment, we take time to understand your concerns, review your medical history, and carefully assess your facial structure and skin condition. This allows us to create a personalised treatment plan that focuses on the areas you would like to improve while maintaining a balanced and natural appearance.
The treatment itself is straightforward and usually takes around 15 to 30 minutes. Small amounts of the chosen product are carefully injected into specific muscles or areas of the skin using very fine needles. Most patients describe the sensation as a brief pinprick, and the procedure is generally very well tolerated.
After the treatment, patients can normally return to their daily routine quickly. However, to help achieve the best results, we recommend avoiding strenuous exercise, excessive heat such as saunas or hot baths, and touching or rubbing the treated areas for a short period following the procedure.
At Corium Clinic, patient safety and comfort are always our priority, and every treatment is performed with care to ensure results that look refreshed, natural, and in harmony with your features.
