Everything You Need to Know About Anti-Wrinkle Injections (Botox)
Your doctor-led guide to smoother, natural-looking skin
What Are Anti-Wrinkle Injections (Botox)?
Anti-wrinkle injections, most commonly known as Botox, are among the most popular non-surgical treatments for softening lines and reducing visible signs of ageing.
These injections use a medically regulated form of botulinum toxin, temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause repeated facial expressions (like frowning or squinting). When delivered professionally, the result is natural-looking, smoother skin, without loss of movement or personality.
Who Are Anti-Wrinkle Injections For?
Botox is suitable for adults looking to:
Soften or prevent dynamic wrinkles (caused by facial movement)
Appear more rested or refreshed
Address forehead lines, frown lines or crow’s feet
Maintain a youthful appearance with minimal downtime
Whether you’re in your 30s and want to prevent deeper lines or exploring a more refreshed look in your 40s, 50s or beyond, we work with you to build a bespoke, age-appropriate treatment plan.
At The Lili Skin Clinic, all treatments are carried out by Dr Kate, an experienced NHS GP and aesthetic doctor. Every client receives a face-to-face consultation to ensure safety, suitability and a personalised approach.
What to Expect During Treatment
Your journey with us always begins with a comprehensive in-person consultation, including a medical history, facial assessment and discussion of your goals.
During the procedure:
Treatment takes around 15–30 minutes
Injections are quick and virtually painless
You may see tiny marks or slight redness that settles quickly
There’s no need to take time off work or activities
When Will I See Results – And How Long Do They Last?
You can expect to notice results within 3–5 days, with full effect by 10–14 days.
Botox typically lasts 3 to 4 months, depending on your metabolism, lifestyle and area treated. Some patients find that regular treatments extend the longevity of their results over time.
Top Questions Patients Ask Us:
💬 Will I look frozen or overdone?
Not at all. Our doctor-led approach ensures natural results, subtle softening without altering your unique features.
💬 Is Botox painful?
Most people describe the sensation as a small scratch. We use ultra-fine needles, and the procedure is over within minutes.
💬 What if I’ve never had aesthetics before?
You’re in safe hands. Dr Kate specialises in treating first-time patients and takes time to explain every option clearly - there’s no pressure, only support.
💬 Can I get Botox while pregnant or breastfeeding?
Botox is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. We always check full medical history first to ensure treatment is safe for you.
💬 Will I still look like me?
Yes. At The Lili Skin Clinic, our philosophy is to enhance, not freeze. We believe in preserving your natural features while helping you look more rested, refreshed and confident.
Your treatment will always be tailored to your facial structure, expressions, and preferences. There will never be overdone or ‘plastic’ results.
