If you have been noticing lines on your forehead when you raise your eyebrows, or creases around your eyes when you smile, you are not imagining it. These are called expression lines, and they are a completely natural part of how your face moves. Over time they become deeper and permanent.
Anti-wrinkle treatments use a prescription-only injectable medication to gently relax specific facial muscles. When those muscles are relaxed, the overlying skin smooths out and the lines soften. The results are not about freezing your face or looking different. The aim is always to look like a refreshed, rested version of yourself, with your natural expressions fully intact.
At SJ Dental & Facial Aesthetics in Heanor, Derbyshire, all anti-wrinkle treatments are carried out by Dr Shraddha Jagani, a qualified dentist with over a decade of clinical experience and advanced postgraduate training in medical facial aesthetics. Her deep understanding of facial anatomy means every injection is placed with precision, care, and a real focus on getting results that look natural.
One of the things patients often appreciate about anti-wrinkle treatment is how many different concerns it can address. At SJ Aesthetics, we treat a wide range of areas across the face and neck.
Frown lines, sometimes called glabellar lines, are those vertical creases between the eyebrows that form when you concentrate, frown, or squint. Many people feel these lines make them look tired or stern even when they are not. Relaxing the muscles responsible for these movements can soften the lines noticeably and restore a more open, approachable appearance.
Horizontal forehead lines develop through years of raising your eyebrows, whether from surprise, conversation, or simply habit. Anti-wrinkle treatment can smooth these lines while still allowing natural movement and expression. The treatment is tailored carefully to avoid any heaviness or a flat, expressionless brow.
The lines that appear at the outer corners of your eyes when you smile are called crow’s feet. They are often one of the first signs of ageing that people notice on themselves. A small amount of anti-wrinkle treatment placed carefully around the eye area softens these lines without affecting the natural warmth and expression of your smile.
A non-surgical brow lift uses precise placement of anti-wrinkle injections to relax the muscles that pull the brow down, allowing the muscles that lift it to become more dominant. The result is a subtle but noticeable lift that opens the eye area and creates a more youthful, alert look without any surgery or downtime.
When the upper lip lifts too high during a smile, more gum than usual becomes visible. This can make some people feel self-conscious about their smile. A small and carefully placed injection into the muscles of the upper lip relaxes the movement, reducing how high the lip travels and creating a more balanced, confident smile.
A lip flip is a subtle treatment for the upper lip that relaxes the muscle around the lip border, causing the upper lip to roll slightly outward. This creates the look of a fuller, more defined upper lip without adding any volume. It is a popular choice for people who want a natural enhancement without the commitment of dermal filler.
The masseter is the large muscle that runs along the side of the jaw and is responsible for chewing and clenching. In some people, this muscle becomes overdeveloped through teeth grinding or habitual clenching, which can cause jaw tension, headaches, and a wider, squarer lower face. Masseter treatment relaxes this muscle, which can relieve discomfort and, over time, create a slimmer, softer facial profile.
The Nefertiti lift targets the platysma muscle, which runs from the lower jaw down into the neck. Over time, this muscle can create bands and dragging that pulls the lower face and jawline downward. Careful placement of anti-wrinkle injections along the lower jaw and upper neck relaxes this pulling effect, improving jawline definition and softening the appearance of neck bands.
We also treat bunny lines on the nose, nasal flare, nasal tip lift, downturned smile, and chin dimpling. During your consultation, Dr Jagani will assess your concerns and recommend the most appropriate treatment plan for your individual anatomy and goals.
Your appointment will begin with a thorough consultation. Dr Jagani takes time to understand what is bothering you, assess your facial anatomy, and discuss what is realistic to achieve. She will explain how the treatment works, where injections will be placed, and what results you can expect. There is never any pressure to proceed, and all your questions will be answered before anything is agreed.
The treatment itself typically takes between 15 and 30 minutes depending on how many areas are being treated. Most patients describe the sensation as a mild pinprick. The needles used are extremely fine, and the treatment is well tolerated. There is no anaesthetic required for most areas.
Afterwards, you can go about your day as normal. You may notice mild redness or small marks at the injection sites, but these usually settle within a few hours. You are advised to avoid intense exercise, alcohol, and lying flat for the remainder of the day, but there is minimal downtime.
Results from anti-wrinkle treatment do not appear immediately. Most patients begin to notice a change within 3 to 5 days, with the full effect developing gradually over the following 10 to 14 days. This gradual onset is actually a good thing because it means the results look completely natural.
Results typically last around 3 to 4 months, although this varies from person to person depending on lifestyle, metabolism, and the areas treated. With regular treatment over time, many patients find the results last longer as the treated muscles become accustomed to their relaxed state.
Anti-wrinkle treatment is only as good as the practitioner delivering it. The same product, in the wrong hands, can produce results that look overdone, unnatural, or uneven. Dr Jagani’s background in dentistry gives her a detailed, clinical understanding of the muscles, nerves, and structures of the face that many aesthetics practitioners simply do not have. Every treatment is approached with the same precision and care she brings to her dental work.
She is based at Heanor Dental Care on Ilkeston Road in Heanor, Derbyshire, and also sees patients at SK Beauty in Sherwood, Nottingham.
Her approach is always honest. If she does not think a treatment will give you the result you are hoping for, she will tell you. Her priority is your long-term trust and your satisfaction with what you see when you look in the mirror.
