Most people know the benefits of Anti-Wrinkle treatments to the forehead and around the eyes. It allows you to restore a more youthful appearance by smoothing out wrinkles that are created through dynamic movement i.e. through expression. Typically everyone knows and recognises this treatment as Botox however there are other products such as Azzalure which we use to have the same effect on the upper part of the face.
Typically these treatments are used to relax forehead lines, frown lines and crows feet around the eyes.
For both of these products Contour Couture are able to provide this treatment in both its Birmingham and Bristol clinics.
Pricing for these treatments are as follows:

Botox
One area £160 (20x units); Two areas £230 (40x units); Three areas £280 (60x units)
Note: 50x Azzalure units equals 20x Botox

Chin muscles that pull too hard result in small irregularities, known as ‘orange peel skin’ or ‘golf ball chin’. If the chin muscle is treated with Botox, it will relax, and many of the irregularities and small dimples disappear. This treatment takes 2 days to 2 weeks to take effect and lasts up to 4 months and tends to last for three to four months
Treatment costs £90-£125 and includes 4-15 units of Botox
Eyebrow lift
Drooping eyebrows can make a person look tired or ill-tempered. In addition, sinking eyebrows can feel like pressure on the eyes. A Botox shot at the eyebrows will relax the small muscle near the eyebrow that pulls the eyebrow down. The eyebrow will lift slightly. You’ll look fresher and more rested. This treatment takes 2 days to 2 weeks to take effect and lasts up to 4 months.

Jawline slimming
Botox can partially relax your masseter muscles which in turn reduces the size of these muscles, then slims the jawline. This then brings out the V-line in your face, making your face appear more feminine, youthful and slender, whilst also emphasizing your cheekbones.
This works because the Botox treatment reduces activity in the masseters that allows the muscle size to reduce. It generally takes 4-8 weeks to make out a difference and the treatment will wear off after 3-4 months after which your masseters will be able to increase in size and activity again, so additional treatment will stop this and allow your jaw to slim down further however the reduced jawline may stay the same for anywhere between 6-18 months depending on the increased muscle activity.

Hyperhidrosis
This is a treatment that helps excessive sweating under the armpits and on the palms of your hands.
The glands responsible for perspiration in these areas work more intensely in some people than in others, causing more perspiration. After treatment, Botox blocks the nerves that control our sweat glands, which stops them from producing sweat. It will generally take between two days to two weeks for your armpits/hands to stop sweating excessively.
Treatment costs £410 and includes 100 units of Botox
Bruxism / teeth grinding
Sometimes muscle tension in the jaw is so high that the jaws are overactive, causing grinding and clenching of your teeth – typically this is more prominent overnight while you are sleeping. This comes with a risk because it causes issues such as worn-down teeth or broken fillings. Also, your chewing muscles may become exhausted and yawning may become painful. Botox can help with this by treating your jaw muscles and reducing the tension and thus the grinding. This takes effect from two to four weeks and lasts for about 4 months.
