Botox Treatments Portsmouth
Your face is individual. Your anti-wrinkle (botox) treatment should reflect that.
At Athena Medical Aesthetics, we offer Botox treatments at our clinic in Wickham, Fareham, near Portsmouth. Whether you are exploring treatment for the first time or considering your next appointment, we begin by understanding your concerns, your facial movement and the results you have in mind.
Our approach centres on thoughtful treatment planning and respect for your natural features. You will have time to ask questions, discuss your options and decide whether a botox treatment feels right for you.
What is Botox, and how does it work?
Botox is a brand of botulinum toxin used to temporarily relax selected muscles. In facial aesthetics, it can soften the appearance of expression lines caused by repeated muscle movement, such as frowning or squinting.
The treatment involves small injections into carefully selected points. Your practitioner assesses your facial movement before deciding on an appropriate treatment plan.
Botox does not address every type of line or change in the skin. Your consultation helps establish what may be achievable and whether another approach would better suit your concerns.
Which areas can be treated?
Forehead lines
Horizontal lines can become visible when you raise your eyebrows. Your practitioner will assess how your forehead and brows move together when considering treatment.
Frown lines
These are the vertical lines between the eyebrows that become more noticeable when you frown. Treatment may soften their appearance by reducing activity in the relevant muscles.
Crow’s feet
Lines around the outer corners of the eyes can appear with smiling and squinting. Your assessment will consider this area alongside your overall facial expression.
Not sure what you need?
You do not need to know how many areas you want treated before booking. We can discuss your priorities and explain the options during your consultation.
