At Farm Girl we are now able to offer this rejuvenating anti-wrinkle
injection treatment to our clients, working to produce a very effective and natural result. The natural result we create for you is incredibly important to us, aligning with our Farm Girl ethos.
The series of small injections work to smooth fine lines and wrinkles around the treatment area. Botox® is not only a solution for existing wrinkles, but this non-surgical solution can also be used as a preventative measure. It's particularly effective on dynamic wrinkles, which are lines that form from repetitive facial movements like frowning, squinting, or smiling. Regular Botox treatments can prevent deep-set lines from forming, keeping your skin looking youthful for longer.
Botox® (Botulinum Toxin) is a drug made from a toxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. When injected in small doses the Botox® temporarily paralyses or weakens muscles. The mechanism of action of Botox® involves the binding of the toxin to nerve endings, preventing the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter responsible for muscle contraction. The weakening of the injected muscles begins to be apparent after 2-3 days with the peak effect being reached after 10-14 days. The effects are always temporary but can last for several months. It is recommended, in order to maintain results, the treatment should be repeated every 3-6 months.
At Farm Girl you shall require two sessions: the first for your treatment and then the second for your treatment review. The second session will be 2 weeks after your first session.
To note, it is strongly recommended that you do not have any further facials within the 2 weeks after your Botox® treatment.
Sign up for this incredible treatment, you could even book in for a facial first, relax in the tranquil environment of our salon and enjoy
the fantastic results.
The Farm Girl by Sarah Jane team look forward to welcoming you soon!
