Anti-Wrinkle at Advanced Aesthetics & Wellness by Helen

If you’ve ever wondered why so many people choose anti-wrinkle treatment for the upper face, here’s the glow-up truth: it helps soften the appearance of forehead lines, frown lines and crow’s feet, giving the skin a smoother, more refreshed look. By relaxing overactive muscles, it helps prevent deeper lines from forming over time — kind of like hitting the pause button on wrinkle creation.

Anti-wrinkle treatment can also be soft and natural. Advanced techniques allow results that enhance your own expression rather than freezing it — subtle, natural, and designed to give you that smooth, youthful look, placed in exactly the right muscles.

With 12 years’ experience in anti-wrinkle treatments, Helen is an Advanced Nurse Practitioner and Independent Prescriber, meaning she can prescribe your treatment herself — no separate face-to-face with a GP needed before you go ahead.

Treatments take around 15 minutes, with results typically developing over 7–14 days and lasting approximately 3–4 months. During your consultation, Helen will discuss your suitability and the most appropriate prescription-only product for you.

If you’re unsure or have any concerns, drop a message — Helen would love to see how she can help.

My priority has always been subtle, natural-looking results delivered in a calm, welcoming environment, so you walk away feeling looked after, valued and glowing – inside and out.

Anti-Wrinkle FAQs

What are Anti-Wrinkle treatments?

Anti-wrinkle treatments are prescription-only injections that work by relaxing the facial muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles — the lines formed by repeated expressions such as frowning or squinting. Alongside softening these lines, they can also help with other concerns, including excessive sweating, jaw clenching, and facial balancing for a more even, refreshed look. I am an advanced nurse practitioner and prescriber, so I am able to prescribe your antiwrinkle treatments myself, meaning no face to face with a doctor needed prior to your treatment.

Not sure which option is best suited to you? The simplest starting point is a consultation before anything else happens. We’ll go through your concerns properly, look at your facial anatomy and skin condition, and put together a treatment plan built around what you actually want to achieve — not a generic package.

Definitely – natural results are always the priority. My focus is on soft, undetectable outcomes rather than anything stiff or overdone. You’ll come away looking refreshed, confident and unmistakably like yourself, with your natural expressions and unique features fully preserved.

Results take a little time to develop, so patience is key. You’ll usually notice the first signs of change within a few days, with the treatment reaching its full effect over the two weeks that follow.

Longevity differs from client to client, but on average most people see results lasting around three to four months. Factors such as metabolism, lifestyle and natural muscle strength all influence this, so it’s completely normal for your timeline to look slightly different from someone else’s.

Discomfort is typically minimal — most clients compare it to a brief, light pinch that’s easy to tolerate. Because the needles used are so fine, any sensation passes quickly, and plenty of people are pleasantly surprised by just how manageable it is.

You’ll leave your appointment with full, clear aftercare advice. As a general guide, it’s best to steer clear of touching or rubbing the treated area, intense exercise, excessive heat, saunas and alcohol for the recommended period afterwards — following this gives your results the best possible chance to settle in properly.

No – anti-wrinkle treatments aren’t suitable during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. This applies industry-wide and isn’t specific to any single product, so treatment will need to wait until afterwards. Do mention this at your consultation so we can talk through timing and pick things back up when you’re ready.

Yes – when carried out by a trained and qualified practitioner following a thorough consultation and medical assessment, anti-wrinkle treatments have a well-established safety profile and a long track record of use. As an Advanced Nurse Practitioner and Independent Prescriber with 12 years’ experience in anti-wrinkle treatments, Helen brings genuine clinical expertise and precision to every appointment. Your safety and wellbeing always come first, and every treatment plan is carefully tailored to your individual needs and medical history.

During your consultation we’ll go through your medical history properly, talk about what’s bothering you and what result you’re after. I’ll work out whether treatment is suitable for you, take time to answer anything you’re wondering about, and give you honest guidance on what actually makes sense for your situation — even if that’s different from what you initially had in mind.

Every new client goes through a consultation and medical assessment first — there’s no skipping this step. It matters most if you’re eyeing up one of the more advanced treatments, or genuinely can’t decide what suits you, because that conversation is what lets me build a plan around you instead of taking a punt.

Before Your Appointment

A bit of prep makes a real difference to how smoothly your appointment goes and how good your results turn out. Have a read through these points before you head in.

  • You don’t need to arrive bare-faced. Makeup is completely fine — the treatment area gets properly cleansed at the start of every appointment anyway, so there’s nothing to worry about there. Think of it as the beginning of your time to unwind.
  • Get a proper night’s sleep beforehand, and flag up anything that’s changed with your medical history, medication or general health since booking.
  • Where you can, skip alcohol for the 24 hours before — it raises your chances of bruising.
  • Avoid blood-thinning medication or supplements like aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oils or certain herbal products if possible, unless your doctor has prescribed them — in that case, carry on taking them as directed.
  • Don’t schedule your appointment right before something important, since some mild redness, tenderness or bruising can happen afterwards.
  • Got an active skin infection, a cold sore, feeling unwell, or had another facial treatment recently? Get in touch first so I can advise properly.
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding clients aren’t able to have anti-wrinkle treatment — this isn’t something that can go ahead in either circumstance.
  • Still on the fence about whether treatment’s right for you? Book a consultation first — that’s always the best way to talk it through and plan properly together.
 

More than anything, I want every appointment to feel calm, comfortable and genuinely luxurious — somewhere you feel fully informed, relaxed and confident from start to finish.

Aftercare Advice

To help your results settle properly and keep the risk of complications low, please stick to the aftercare guidance below following your anti-wrinkle treatment.

  • Don’t touch, rub or massage the treated area for at least 24 hours.
  • Stay upright for roughly four hours after your appointment — avoid lying flat straight after.
  • Skip strenuous exercise, heavy lifting or anything that pushes up your body temperature for 24 hours.
  • Stay away from saunas, steam rooms, hot tubs and excess heat for at least 24 hours.
  • No alcohol for 24 hours post-treatment, as it can make bruising and swelling more likely.
  • Hold off on facials, massage or applying pressure to the treated area for at least two weeks, unless advised otherwise.
  • Mild redness, tenderness, swelling or small bumps around the injection sites are all normal and typically settle on their own.
  • Some bruising can occasionally happen — this will fade naturally over the following days.
  • Results build gradually. You might see initial changes within a few days, with the full effect in place by up to two weeks.
  • Stick to any specific guidance given at your appointment, since this can differ depending on the area treated.
  • Got questions, concerns, or noticed something that doesn’t sit right after treatment? Reach out any time — your wellbeing and aftercare stay important to me throughout your whole treatment journey.
 

My aim isn’t only beautiful, natural-looking results — it’s making sure you feel looked after, informed and supported at every stage.
