Designed for
real concerns

Botox works by relaxing the specific muscles responsible for repetitive expression lines. Dr. Anna doses conservatively, mapping each patient's muscle movement individually so results stay expressive, not frozen.

  • Forehead lines
  • Frown lines (the "11s")
  • Crow's feet around the eyes
  • Bunny lines across the nose
  • Gummy smile
  • Jawline slimming (masseter Botox)
  • Excessive underarm sweating
  • Neck bands (platysmal bands)

How to
prepare

A little preparation goes a long way toward a comfortable session and optimal results. Dr. Anna will go over a personalised pre-care plan during your consultation — but here's what to generally expect.

  • Avoid alcohol for 24 hours before your appointment
  • Stop blood-thinning supplements (fish oil, vitamin E) a few days prior if possible
  • Inform Dr. Anna of any upcoming events so timing can be planned around potential swelling
  • Avoid scheduling on the same day as intense exercise
  • Arrive with clean skin, free of makeup if possible

Recovery,
day by day

Botox has minimal downtime, but the muscle-relaxing effect builds gradually rather than appearing instantly. Here's a general idea of what to expect.

Day 1

Mild Swelling

Slight redness or small bumps at injection sites are normal and typically settle within a few hours.

Day 2–3

Settling In

The product begins binding at the muscle. Any minor bruising, if present, starts to fade.

Day 7–14

Full Effect

Botox reaches its full effect around 10–14 days, with visibly smoother, more relaxed muscle movement.

Month 3–4

Maintenance Window

Muscle activity gradually returns. Most patients rebook around this point to maintain results.

Caring for
your skin

Following the aftercare plan closely is one of the biggest factors in how well your results settle. Dr. Anna provides a full written aftercare guide after every session.

  • Avoid touching or rubbing treated areas for 24 hours
  • Stay upright and avoid lying flat for 4 hours after treatment
  • Avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours
  • Skip saunas, steam rooms, and sunbathing for 48 hours
  • Avoid alcohol for 24 hours post-treatment
  • Contact the clinic if you notice unusual swelling, asymmetry, or pain

Frequently asked
questions

Will I look "frozen" or unnatural?+

Dr. Anna's approach prioritises natural-looking results through conservative dosing and careful muscle mapping — the goal is refreshed movement, never a frozen expression.

How long does Botox last?+

Results typically last 3–4 months as muscle activity gradually returns. Consistent maintenance treatments can help results last slightly longer over time.

Can Botox be combined with fillers?+

Yes, many patients combine both in a single appointment for a comprehensive refresh, depending on their goals and Dr. Anna's recommendation.

Is the treatment painful?+

Most patients tolerate it well. The needles used are very fine, and a topical numbing cream can be applied beforehand for added comfort.

What if I don't like the results?+

Botox is temporary — effects gradually wear off over 3–4 months. Dr. Anna will discuss dosing and placement in detail during your consultation.
