Which Areas of the Face Can Be Treated with Botox?

Most Common Botox Treatment Areas

1. Forehead Lines

Dynamic horizontal lines form across the forehead as we express ourselves. Botox smooths these lines by relaxing the frontalis muscle, resulting in a fresher, more youthful appearance.

2. Frown Lines (Glabellar Lines / 11s)

Located between the eyebrows, these vertical lines can make you look tired or stern. A small amount of Botox in this area creates a softer, more relaxed look.

3. Crow’s Feet (Smile Lines at the Eyes)

These fine lines appear at the outer corners of the eyes. Botox effectively reduces their appearance while preserving your natural smile.

4. Eyebrow Lift

A subtle brow lift using Botox can open up the eye area, creating a refreshed look without surgery.

5. Bunny Lines (Nose Wrinkles)

Tiny diagonal lines appear on the sides of your nose when you smile or scrunch. Botox helps soften these lines for a smoother nasal bridge.

6. Chin Dimpling

Also known as "orange peel chin," this is caused by an overactive mentalis muscle. Botox smooths the area for a refined lower face.

7. Jawline Slimming & Teeth Grinding (Masseter Treatment)

Botox can relax the jaw muscles to create a slimmer facial profile and alleviate symptoms of teeth grinding (bruxism).

8. Neck Bands (Platysmal Bands)

For clients concerned about visible neck bands, Botox can help relax the platysma muscle, improving the jawline and neck appearance.

What Are Anti-Wrinkle Injections & How Do They Work?

Botox works by blocking impulses from nerves to small groups of facial muscles. These muscles relax, which makes the skin on top look smoother.

Wrinkle relaxation treatment is injected into specific muscles, so no other muscles are affected, meaning you can still change your facial expressions but there will be less frowning and fewer wrinkles.

It isn’t a permanent treatment and the effects on your muscles will wear off after a few months, which is when Botox needs to be re-administered.

Complementary Treatments to Enhance Your Botox Results

Botox is an excellent choice for softening dynamic facial lines — particularly in the forehead, frown, and eye areas. But for clients in Hampstead, West Hampstead, and surrounding areas of North West London, combining Botox with other aesthetic treatments often delivers more balanced and longer-lasting results.

At Hampstead Aesthetics, we offer a full suite of anti-ageing and skin rejuvenation treatments that work beautifully alongside anti-wrinkle injections:

Dermal fillers – Ideal for restoring volume to the cheeks, lips, and jawline. Fillers complement Botox by treating static wrinkles and facial hollows for a lifted, youthful appearance.
Polynucleotide treatments – These regenerative injectables improve skin quality, hydration, and elasticity, enhancing the natural results of wrinkle relaxing injections.
Skin boosters – Often used alongside Botox to refresh dull, dehydrated skin and improve texture without adding volume.
Lip enhancement – For clients looking to rejuvenate both the upper face and perioral area, subtle lip filler can balance your overall facial proportions.

Whether you’re looking for anti-wrinkle treatments near me or want to explore a bespoke, multi-treatment plan, we’ll ensure your results remain elegant, effective, and true to your natural features.

BOTOX FOR UPPER FACE - FAQS

1. What are anti-wrinkle injections and how do they work?
Anti-wrinkle injections—also known as muscle relaxants or botulinum toxin A treatments—work by gently relaxing the facial muscles that cause expression lines and dynamic wrinkles. When injected into targeted areas, they block nerve signals that trigger muscle contractions, allowing the overlying skin to smooth out and soften.

At Hampstead Aesthetics, we use only prescription-only, FDA-approved products for precise, natural-looking results.

2. What’s in the anti-wrinkle injections?
These treatments contain a purified form of botulinum toxin A, a medical-grade protein derived from bacteria. It’s been used safely in both cosmetic and therapeutic medicine for over 20 years. Our clinic in West Hampstead, NW6 follows strict medical protocols to ensure every injection is delivered safely and effectively.

3. When will I see results after my treatment?
You’ll typically start to see early results within 4–5 days, with full results visible at around 2 weeks. We offer a complimentary review appointment after 14 days to assess the outcome and offer a free top-up if needed.

4. How long do the results last?
On average, results last 3–4 months, though some clients enjoy benefits for up to 6 months. A small number may find results fade by 8–10 weeks. Your skin will gradually return to its natural appearance if you choose not to repeat treatment.

5. What’s the difference between anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers?
Anti-wrinkle injections are used to relax muscle movement and smooth wrinkles caused by facial expressions—like frown lines and crow’s feet. Dermal fillers, on the other hand, are used to add volume to areas like lips, cheeks, and smile lines. Many clients at Hampstead Aesthetics choose to combine both treatments for full-face rejuvenation.

6. Which areas can be treated with muscle relaxant injections?
Common treatment areas include:

Forehead lines
Frown lines (glabella)
Crow’s feet (eye corners)
Bunny lines (nose wrinkles)
Gummy smile
Neck bands (Nefertiti lift)
Masseter (for jaw slimming or teeth grinding)

We offer tailored anti-wrinkle plans for clients across Hampstead, Finchley, and Belsize Park, designed to match your unique features.

7. When is the best age to start anti-wrinkle treatments?
There’s no perfect age, but many clients start in their late 20s to early 30s for preventative purposes. Others begin in their 40s or 50s to soften deeper lines. If you’ve started noticing fine lines that remain even at rest, it may be time to consider treatment.

8. Are muscle relaxant injections safe?
Yes—when administered by qualified professionals. Our treatments are carried out by Dr. Chike, an experienced medical aesthetics doctor who has treated thousands of clients safely across London. The product has been extensively studied and used worldwide with an excellent safety profile.

9. Does the treatment hurt?
Most clients find the injections quick and virtually painless. We use ultra-fine needles and gentle techniques. For more sensitive clients, a topical numbing cream can be applied to minimise any discomfort.

10. Can I still move my face after Botox-style injections?
Yes. At Hampstead Aesthetics, our goal is always to preserve natural facial expressions. You’ll still be able to smile, frown, and raise your eyebrows—we simply soften the lines that appear with movement.

11. Will people know I’ve had anti-wrinkle treatment?
Not unless you tell them. Most of our clients are told they look “well-rested” or “refreshed.” We focus on achieving subtle, balanced results that enhance your appearance—not change your face.

12. Are there any side effects or downtime?
Minor redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site is possible, but these typically fade within 24–72 hours. Most clients return to work or social activities immediately. It’s a true lunchtime treatment.

13. Can I have this treatment while pregnant or breastfeeding?
No. For safety reasons, we do not treat clients who are pregnant or breastfeeding.

14. Are anti-wrinkle injections suitable for men?
Absolutely. We treat many male clients in West Hampstead, Camden, and the City who want to soften lines while maintaining a masculine look. Dosing and technique are adjusted to suit male facial anatomy.

15. Is there a minimum age requirement?
Yes. We do not treat anyone under 18 years old, even with parental consent, as this is a prescription-only medical procedure.

16. How long does the appointment take?
The injection process takes around 10–15 minutes. Most clients are in and out of the clinic within 30 minutes.

17. Do I need to keep having treatment for it to work?
No. While many clients return every 3–4 months to maintain results, the effects will simply wear off if you stop. Your skin will return to how it looked before—not worse.

18. Can I build resistance to the treatment?
In rare cases, overuse or excessively frequent treatment (less than every 12 weeks) can lead to resistance to botulinum toxin. We recommend spaced treatments to avoid this and to keep your results consistent over time.

19. Will having more product make it last longer?
Not necessarily. Injecting too much can lead to side effects and unnatural results. Our experienced practitioner will always recommend the lowest effective dose to achieve natural, smooth outcomes.

20. Is the treatment reversible?
Anti-wrinkle injections are not permanent. They gradually wear off over 3–6 months. If you’re ever unhappy with the result, we can discuss alternative options at your review appointment—but most clients are delighted with the refreshed look.

21. Can muscle relaxant injections prevent new wrinkles?
Yes. When used preventatively, they can slow the development of deeper lines by reducing the repetitive movements that cause them—especially in high-expression areas like the forehead and crow’s feet.
