Wrinkle Reduction
Lines and wrinkles are an unfortunate, but natural part of the ageing process. Whilst lines and wrinkles are inevitable, they can be reduced and prevented with the use of anti wrinkle injections. Wrinkle reduction (Botox) is a fantastic, pain free and non-invasive way to relax the muscles in your face to smooth out lines and wrinkles. We can treat many areas of the face and body, including:
- Forehead
- Frown
- Crows feet
- Lower face (lip-flip, gummy smile)
- Neck and jowls
- Under arms(sweat reduction)
- Bruxism (teeth grinding)
After your free consultation, a bespoke treatment plan will be designed. The treatment is pain free and low risk in the correct hands. The procedure usually only takes around 15-20 minutes. Your face will be cleansed and the treatment will be carried out according to the treatment plan agreed. You will generally see a difference as early as 3-7 days , with a two week review included in the treatment plan as well. This is to ensure that you are happy and that the results are to the high level we expect here at DHA. The results are not permanent, and in most cases will last for 3-4 months.
Please do not hesitate to get in touch if you would like to book a free consultation.

Excessive Sweating
That’s right! You can treat excessive sweating under arms using anti-wrinkle injections (Botox). The treatment works by blocking the nerves responsible for activating your sweat glands. When you receive treatment into the area of your body which commonly sweats, your overactive nerves are essentially ‘paralysed’. When your nerves can not signal your sweat glands, you don’t sweat as much, if at all.
Book a ConsultationTeeth Grinding (Bruxism)
Bruxism is the medical term for unconscious teeth clenching and grinding. Chronic teeth grinding can cause long term issues with your teeth, but also can be the cause of headaches, earaches, facial pain and migraines. Dental problems from bruxism include loss of tooth enamel, increased tooth sensitivity and flattening and/or chipping of the teeth. Bruxism sufferers who grind and clench their teeth while sleeping frequently wake up with a sore jaw.
Many other treatments, such as anti-inflammatory medications and night guards do not always address the source of the problem. Dental devices can be very successfully in reducing bruxism and protecting your teeth, but not everyone likes wearing protective guard.
This treatment option significantly relaxes the masseter muscle and reduces the wear and tear on the teeth due to grinding. Voluntary movements, such as chewing and facial expressions, are not affected. This is not a cure for grinding, but can be an effective way to control the uncomfortable symptoms.
Lower Face (Lip-Flip, Gummy Smile, Neck & Jowls)
Using anti-wrinkle (Botox) injections in the lower face, we are able to treat the following areas:
- Lip Flip
For those that are wanting a very subtle lip change and are nervous about having dermal or lip fillers, a lip flip is a fantastic alternative way of improving the fullness of your lips. The pain free treatment plan encourage the top lip to relax and ‘flip’ outwards, giving the subtle illusion of a fuller lip.
- Gummy Smile
A gummy smile means the top lip rests higher on the gum when smiling. Small teeth or enlarged gums can be addressed by a dental professional. However, if a gummy smile is the cause of a hyperactive top lip or a top lip that appears to be too short, then we may have the right treatment. Botox, when injected in the top lip, will relax the muscles which will limit the height. The gums will then remain covered when smiling.
- Neck and Jowls
Botox is strategically administered at various points in the jaw and neck to reduce multiple signs of aging, including:
- Chin dimpling and wrinkles
- Downturned expression (mouth corners)
- Minor sagging of skin and jowls
- Neck lines and wrinkles
- Platysmal banding (vertical neck bands or “turkey neck”)
The neck and jowls can be improved with careful placement of Botox, however it is important to note that very loose skin in this area may not improve and will need alternative treatment options.
