Fine lines and wrinkles are a natural part of ageing, but that doesn’t mean you have to live with deep frown lines or a permanently tired-looking expression. At The Hampton Clinic, we offer expert anti-wrinkle injections that soften movement and smooth the appearance of lines, while still allowing you to look like you.
Lines form over time as collagen breaks down and skin loses elasticity. Add to that sun exposure, genetics, facial structure, and lifestyle - and certain muscles begin to crease the skin in repetitive patterns. Anti-wrinkle injections help relax those specific muscles, preventing them from over-contracting and giving the skin a chance to recover.
Neuromodulators such as Botox® are a safe and effective way to soften the appearance of fine lines and dynamic wrinkles caused by repetitive muscle movement. They work by temporarily blocking the signal between nerves and muscles. This relaxation reduces excessive muscle contractions that cause creases to form, particularly in areas like the forehead, frown lines, and around the eyes.
Over time, repeated facial expressions such as smiling, frowning or squinting contribute to lines becoming more visible. By gently relaxing targeted muscles, we allow the skin to smooth out while still maintaining natural movement and expression. The result is a refreshed, more rested appearance - never frozen!
At The Hampton Clinic in Bristol, all injectable treatments are carried out by medical professionals with years of experience in facial anatomy and non-surgical aesthetic procedures. During your consultation, we take the time to assess your facial structure, discuss your goals, and make sure that any treatment is tailored specifically to you.
Anti-wrinkle injections can be used in many areas of the face and neck to reduce dynamic lines, enhance facial balance, and create a more refreshed appearance. Treatment areas include forehead lines, the glabella (also known as 11 lines or frown lines between the eyebrows), crow’s feet around the eyes, bunny lines across the nose, eyebrow lift, chin dimpling or 'orange peel chin', vertical lip lines (sometimes called smoker’s lines), downturned corners of the mouth (DAO muscles), platysmal bands for neck tightening, jawline slimming or 'masseter Botox' for teeth grinding and facial tension, gummy smile correction, nasal tip lift and the lip flip - a subtle enhancement that uses Botox to relax the upper lip and create the appearance of fuller lips without filler.
Your practitioner will assess your concerns during consultation and recommend the best approach to help you achieve a natural, refreshed look. Every face is unique, and we always tailor treatment to your individual anatomy and goals.
Most clients see results within 3–5 days, with full effects visible after about two weeks. Results typically last between 3–4 months, although this varies depending on your individual metabolism, lifestyle and the area treated.
Not at The Hampton Clinic. Our approach is all about balance. We believe in softening lines while preserving natural expression so you’ll still look like you, just fresher and more rested.
Treatment is quick and painless. You might feel a small pinch as the product is injected, but most clients find it very tolerable. There’s no need for numbing cream, and you can go back to your normal day immediately after.
Botox® is simply one brand of botulinum toxin. “Anti-wrinkle injections” is the more general term used for treatments that use this active ingredient to relax facial muscles.
Yes, in most cases. However, our consultations are pressure-free and there’s no obligation to proceed if you’re unsure. We take time to explain everything and ensure it’s the right decision for you.
Most healthy adults are good candidates, but they’re not suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or if you have certain medical conditions. Your full medical history will be reviewed before treatment.
Our focus is on personalised care and natural-looking results. All treatments are carried out by experienced injectors who take the time to understand your face, your goals, and your comfort level. We never push unnecessary treatments as our priority is always what’s best for you.
