Botulinum Toxin Treatment

Dr Zaheri offers Botox®️ treatments for cosmetic facial and neck rejuvenation, as well as for the management of hyperhidrosis, providing safe, effective, and refined results. Facial Botox®️ treatments target dynamic lines and wrinkles, including frown lines, forehead lines, crow’s feet, bunny lines on the nose, lines around the mouth, and concerns affecting the lips, helping to soften features while maintaining natural facial movement and expression.

Botox®️ can also be used to address nasal alar flare and gummy smile, subtly refining the smile and facial balance for a more harmonious appearance. Treatments to the mouth and lip area can improve downturned corners, fine perioral lines, and lip positioning, creating a relaxed and refreshed look. Botox®️ treatment to the neck helps improve the appearance of neck bands and skin laxity, resulting in a smoother, more youthful contour and a seamless transition between the face and neck. My approach prioritises natural-looking outcomes, with every treatment being bespoke and carefully tailored to your individual anatomy, concerns, and aesthetic goals.

For hyperhidrosis, Botox®️ is an effective solution to significantly reduce excessive sweating, improving comfort and confidence. All treatments are personalised and designed to meet your individual needs, ensuring balanced, harmonious, and rejuvenated results.

A medical, not cosmetic-only, treatment

In dermatology, botulinum toxin is used for far more than aesthetic concerns. Clinically, it plays an important role in managing conditions such as excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis), muscle-related facial tension, and certain pain or movement-related skin conditions. Its safety and effectiveness are supported by decades of clinical use and extensive research.

Softening dynamic facial lines

Dynamic lines form as a result of repeated facial movement over time — commonly affecting the forehead, frown lines, and crow’s feet. Botulinum toxin helps soften these lines by reducing excessive muscle contraction, allowing the skin to appear smoother while maintaining natural facial expression. Treatment is tailored to each individual’s facial anatomy and movement patterns to ensure subtle, balanced results.

A careful, personalised approach

Treatment begins with a detailed consultation to assess facial structure, muscle activity, medical history, and patient goals. Dosing and injection points are carefully planned to prioritise natural results, safety, and skin health, rather than a “frozen” appearance. Only prescription-grade products approved for use in the UK are used.

What to expect

The procedure itself is quick, with minimal discomfort and no downtime for most patients. Results typically begin to appear within 3–7 days, with full effects seen at around 2 weeks, and usually last 3–4 months. Ongoing treatment plans are reviewed regularly and adjusted as needed.

Consultant-led care

At IA Dermatology, botulinum toxin treatments are performed exclusively by Consultant Dermatologists, ensuring expert anatomical knowledge, appropriate medical oversight, and adherence to GMC and UK clinical governance standards.

This approach ensures treatments are not only effective but medically appropriate, ethical, and focused on long-term skin health.
