Here’s a guide to getting great results from your treatment for lines and wrinkles:
Contour Clinics Founder Dr. Josh Wall discusses the reasons wrinkles appear and the most common areas our patients like to have treated.
Dr. Alina explains how targeted treatment for lines and wrinkles can be used to lift and rejuvenate the lower face, as demonstrated on her patient.
Forehead lines, often caused by the overactivity of the frontalis muscle, can give the appearance of ageing and fatigue. With repeated movements over time, these lines can deepen and become visible even when the face is at rest.
Since the forehead covers a significant portion of the face, smoothing these lines and wrinkles can have a noticeable impact on your overall facial appearance.
Frown lines are the deep creases between your eyebrows. These become more prominent when you frown, making you look angry or sad.
Over time, these lines may become obviously visible even when your forehead isn’t moving, making you look like you’re frowning even when you’re not.
Crow’s feet are lines that occur when we smile or laugh. Despite the happy reason for their development, overtime, these lines contribute to an ageing appearance. Targeted muscle-inhibiting treatments act to soften and smooth the lines around the eye area, leaving you with a noticeably youthful appearance.
Caused when you scrunch up your nose while frowning, talking, laughing, or smiling, these wrinkles are named for their similarity to a bunny’s nose movements.
Bunny lines are unique to the individual, with some being vertical, horizontal or diagonal. These lines can make you look angry, worried or older than you are.
Did you know that we can create a subtle lift to the outer brow?
Targeted aesthetic treatment works to weaken the muscles under the brow, allowing the muscles above the brow to become more dominant, thereby resulting in a gentle upwards pull.
Turn that frown upside down with our targeted treatment of the DAO (Depressor Anguli Oris) muscles.
These facial muscles become overactive as we age, causing a downturn of the outer portions of our mouth.
Relaxing the DAO muscles can address this concern by temporarily altering the mouth position at rest.
Correcting under-eye lines is an advanced procedure that should only be carried out by the most experienced practitioners.
There are many facial muscles used for smiling that share their attachments near this area. Hence, supreme knowledge of facial anatomy in this area is crucial for a result free of complications.
This treatment expertly targets the orbital rim to produce a smooth, wrinkle-free under-eye region.
We recommend combining this with our volumising treatment in the tear trough for optimal results.
Vertical and horizontal neckbands are caused by the overactivity of the platysma muscle. This is a thin sheet of muscle surrounding the neck. Years of overactivity can cause permanent neck banding.
The Nefertiti neck lift technique is used to relax the platysma, reducing neck bands and sagging along the jawline, helping restore definition and a more refined lower facial contour.

Topical anaesthetic is applied to the treatment area to numb the skin, and we provide the option of ‘happy gas’ to make your procedure as comfortable as possible.
Depending on the treatment, it can take 2-5 days to see results from your procedure. Full results are noticeable in 2 weeks.
The results last between 3 and 4 months. Those who have treatments regularly may find they can go longer durations between treatments, often out to 6-12 months.
If you decide treatment no longer suits you, you can rest assured that the treated area will gradually return to its pre-treatment appearance.
The short answer is yes. Although, there are certain areas of the face where caution needs to be exercised.
Treatments for facial volume can cause initial swelling in the treated area. Swelling can increase the risk of complications for your lines and wrinkles treatment.
Provided the same area has not been targeted by both treatment methods, there should be no issue having them done on the same day.
There may be occasions when your practitioner recommends waiting 2 weeks between the two different treatments. This will be discussed with you in your initial consultation.
This treatment requires no downtime, often referred to as a ‘lunchtime procedure’. It is performed in-clinic, taking only minutes. You can return to your daily routine immediately after treatments without anyone knowing you have had anything done.
At Contour Clinics, we specialise in a natural-looking result. Results and any changes will occur slowly and subtly. People may note you look more refreshed or less tired without knowing why.
One of the worries many patients express is that muscle-inhibiting treatment will make it impossible for them to move their faces.
While muscle relaxants do reduce the muscle activity causing wrinkles and expression lines, when used correctly they should not affect your ability to show concern, look surprised, or other facial expression movements.
If overdone, muscle relaxants can cause a frozen appearance. At Contour Clinics, our expert and experienced practitioners are skilled in administering procedures with precision for natural-looking and undetectable results.
No. If anything, relaxing the Orbicularis oculi muscle surrounding the eye will relax eye muscles, causing a widening of the eyes. This can lead to a more alert, awake appearance.
Results generally lasts 3-4 months. As the effects wear off, the skin will return to its natural, pre-treatment state.
If you decide against further treatments, your skin will return to the same condition it was before treatment.
You can gently wash your face immediately after treatment.
The key here is to be gentle and to avoid facial massage or pressure.
You may apply makeup 24 hours after your treatment. This is to allow sufficient time for skin healing.
Applying makeup sooner than this can increase your risk of infection post treatment.
Side effects are rare with this type of treatment. Immediately afterwards, minor side effects such as redness, swelling, and itching is common. These rarely last more than a few hours. These effects do not prevent patients from returning to work and other normal activities immediately after treatment.
Uncommonly, patients may experience short-lived bruising. It is usually minimal and lasts anywhere from 1-4 days. We offer post-procedural LED light therapy to decrease the risk of bruising.
