Skin aging is characterized by the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles due to the breakdown of collagen and elastin, which are the skin supportive structures that keep the skin smooth, youthful, and resilient. When there is a loss of these structural fibers, the skin loses its elasticity and strength, thereby forming shallow skin creases. Anti wrinkle treatment helps to target the skin aging concerns and helps revitalize the skin by smoothening the undesirable fine lines and wrinkles.

Thankfully, the skin specialists in Delhi at Rakshaa Skin Clinic offer advanced treatments that help people combat their skin aging concerns and restore youthful and refreshing skin appearance.
The beginning of the facial skin aging process is marked by the appearance of small, shallow skin creases that are about 2mm deep (covering only the superficial skin layer).

The repeated facial movements like frowning, smiling, squinting, smoking, side sleeping, and laughing lead to formation of fine lines and wrinkles over time that is difficult to avoid. This is because of the regular contraction of muscles lying underneath the skin surface of the face. But anti wrinkle injections can help to fade them.
Anti wrinkle injection is a popular wrinkle relief treatment that consists of an injectable substance composed of a natural purified protein (a neurotoxin) that is produced by a bacterium. It is a neuromodulator that works on hyperactive facial muscles to induce a long-term relaxation of them which further tightens the overlying skin.
When anti wrinkle injections are administered in micro amounts into the contracting muscles of the face, it acts on the neuromuscular junction to block the chemical signal released from the nerves to the muscles. Therefore, they can instigate a desirable, temporary, “muscle relaxing” effect, that can:

The procedure of Anti Wrinkle Injection Treatment

- Before treatment: The doctor also evaluates the current health status of the patient and reviews his/her medical history to ensure the safety of the anti wrinkle injection treatment.
- During treatment: Ultra fine, disposable needles are used to inject the anti aging protein in minute amounts into the muscles. A numbing cream is applied before using the anti wrinkle injections to make the procedure comfortable, but most people don’t need it. The procedure usually lasts for 15-30 minutes.
- After the treatment: Immediately after getting anti wrinkle injections, the patient experiences mild swelling and slight redness that usually resolves within some time.
For speedy healing of the injection site and alleviation of such symptoms, ice packs may be applied. Moreover, the patient may also notice small pinprick marks of the needle at their points of insertion that can easily be masked by make-up. One can notice the effects of Anti wrinkle injections anywhere between 3 to 14 days post-treatment. Usually, the results last for around 3-6 months.
Repeated anti wrinkle injection sessions may be needed after every 4-6 months depending upon the area being treated and how the patient responds to the first anti wrinkle injection.
