Anti-wrinkle injections are one of the world’s most popular and effective non-surgical treatments for softening fine lines and dynamic wrinkles. At Rakus Clinic, our medical experts deliver this treatment with precision, achieving natural-looking, rejuvenated results tailored to your facial structure and goals.
Anti-wrinkle injections are one of the most affordable, fastest working, safe and effective non-surgical aging treatments available. They are designed to reduce the appearance of fine lines and dynamic wrinkles by temporarily relaxing the facial muscles that cause them.
Anti-wrinkle injections involve the use of a purified botulinum protein injected in small amounts into targeted areas to relax overactive facial muscles the cause expression lines – most commonly forehead lines, frown lines, and around crow’s feet around the eyes.
This treatment is quick, minimally invasive, and requires little to no downtime, making it a popular choice for those seeking a refreshed, youthful appearance.
In addition to its cosmetic purposes, anti-wrinkle injections also have a range of medical applications including treating chronic headaches, jaw pain and excess sweating.

Anti-wrinkle injections can help to address various concerns including:
Excessive Sweating (Hyperhidrosis)
Chronic Migraines
TMJ Pain and Jaw Tension
Gummy Smile Correction
Neck Spasms and Muscle Stiffness
Anti wrinkle injections work by blocking the nerve signals that cause our facial muscles to contract – temporarily immobilising them. This prevents those repeated contractions that form the wrinkles, allowing the overlying skin to soften, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
The most commonly treated facial muscles are those responsible for dynamic wrinkles—those formed by repetitive movements like frowning or squinting. Other possible treatment areas include eyebrow lift, bunny lines around the nose, smokers and bar code lines around the lips, smile lines, dimpled or pebbled chin, the neck (platysmal bands) and jawline slimming.
The treatment targets only the injected muscles, leaving surrounding areas unaffected, allowing for a natural-looking result. Over time, as nerve signals gradually return, muscle activity resumes, and repeat treatments are required to maintain the smoother appearance.
The desired result will be a natural, refreshed appearance with softened lines and more youthful-looking skin.

Anti-wrinkle injections are not only used for cosmetic purposes but also have a range of medical applications that can improve quality of life.
Excessive Sweating (Hyperhidrosis): can effectively reduce sweating in areas such as the underarms, hands, and feet by blocking the nerve signals to sweat glands.
Chronic Migraines: regular treatments can help reduce the frequency and severity of migraines by relaxing tension in specific muscle groups around the head and neck.
TMJ Pain and Jaw Tension: can relieve jaw clenching, teeth grinding (bruxism), and tension-related discomfort by relaxing overactive jaw muscles.
Neck Spasms and Muscle Stiffness: Used medically to treat conditions like cervical dystonia by easing involuntary muscle contractions.
These therapeutic benefits make this a versatile treatment option beyond aesthetics.
Yes, anti-wrinkle injections are often combined with other aesthetic treatments to enhance overall results. It works well alongside dermal fillers, skin boosters, chemical peels, and microneedling, offering a comprehensive approach to facial rejuvenation.
