About the Treatment

What are Wrinkle Reduction Injections?

Wrinkle reduction injections use a purified prescription protein to temporarily relax the facial muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles - the lines formed by repeated facial movement. When the muscle is relaxed, the overlying skin smooths, softening or eliminating the wrinkle.

In Australia, wrinkle reduction injections are classified as Schedule 4 prescription medicines under the TGA. They must be prescribed and administered by or under the supervision of a qualified, AHPRA-registered health practitioner. At SkinAfinity, all treatments are performed personally by Lina Pan within the appropriate prescribing framework.

Results from wrinkle reduction treatment are temporary - lasting 3–5 months on average - and gradually wear off as the muscle activity returns. With regular treatment, many clients find results last longer over time.

Most Requested Areas

Forehead Lines, Frown Lines & Crow's Feet in Adelaide

Wrinkle reduction injections treat a range of dynamic facial lines — wrinkles caused by repeated muscle movement over time. The three most commonly requested treatment areas at SkinAfinity are forehead lines, frown lines, and crow's feet.

01
Forehead Lines

Horizontal lines across the upper forehead caused by raising the eyebrows. Forehead wrinkle treatment smooths these lines by relaxing the frontalis muscle. Most clients require 2–3 areas. Results typically last 3–5 months. Forehead treatment is often combined with frown line treatment for a balanced result.

02
Frown Line Injections

The vertical "11" lines that form between the eyebrows — known as glabellar lines. These are the most commonly requested area across all wrinkle reduction treatments in Australia. Frown line injections relax the corrugator and procerus muscles, softening the lines and reducing the tired or stern expression they create. Typically 2–3 areas.

03
Crow's Feet Treatment

The fan-shaped lines that radiate from the outer corners of the eyes — most visible when smiling. Crow's feet treatment relaxes the orbicularis oculi muscle around the eye, softening these lines without affecting the natural warmth of your smile. Often paired with forehead or brow treatment. Typically 1–2 areas per side.

All treatment areas are assessed individually at your complimentary consultation. Lina will consider your facial anatomy, muscle strength, and aesthetic goals before recommending an approach — with no pressure to treat multiple areas if that is not your preference.

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions about Wrinkle Reduction Injections

How long do wrinkle reduction injections last?

Results typically last 3–5 months. First-time treatments may wear off closer to 3 months as your muscles are stronger. With regular maintenance, many clients find results extend to 4–5 months over time. Longevity varies based on muscle strength, metabolism, and the areas treated.

When do wrinkle reduction injections start working?

You will begin to notice softening within 3–7 days of treatment. The full effect is visible at 2 weeks, once the muscle has fully relaxed. A review appointment at 2 weeks allows for any minor adjustments.

Do wrinkle reduction injections hurt?

Most clients describe it as a slight sting - over in seconds. The needles used are very fine and the treatment is quick, typically 15–20 minutes. No numbing cream is required for most areas, though it can be applied on request.

What is the difference between wrinkle reduction injections and dermal fillers?

Wrinkle reduction injections relax muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles (lines from movement). Dermal fillers add volume to restore lost facial structure or fill static lines (wrinkles present at rest). Many clients benefit from a combination of both. Lina will discuss which approach - or combination - is right for your concerns.

Are wrinkle reduction injections prescription-only in Australia?

Yes. In Australia, wrinkle reduction injections are Schedule 4 prescription medicines regulated by the TGA. They must be prescribed within a lawful prescribing framework and administered by a qualified health practitioner. At SkinAfinity, all treatments comply with these requirements.

Is there any downtime after wrinkle reduction injections?

Minimal. Some clients experience minor redness or small bumps at the injection sites immediately after, which settle within an hour. Bruising is possible but uncommon. Avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol, and lying flat for 4 hours after treatment.

How many units do I need?

The number of units varies by individual - it depends on your muscle strength, the areas treated, and how strong a result you want. Lina will assess this during your consultation. Common treatments: forehead (10–20 units), frown lines (15–25 units), crow's feet (10–15 units per side).

Can wrinkle reduction injections look natural?

Yes - and that is the goal. Overly frozen or expressionless results come from too many units or poor technique. Lina uses a conservative, anatomy-first approach that preserves natural facial movement while softening lines. Looking refreshed, not "done", is the aim.

How much do wrinkle reduction injections cost in Adelaide?

At SkinAfinity, wrinkle reduction injections start from $85 per area. Most clients treat 2–3 areas per appointment. Your exact cost is confirmed during your free consultation based on the areas treated and units required.

Why should a qualified health practitioner perform wrinkle reduction injections?

Wrinkle reduction injections are prescription medicines that require clinical knowledge to use safely - including facial anatomy, appropriate dosing, and management of complications. AHPRA-registered nurses like Lina have the training and regulatory accountability to provide safe, effective treatment.
