What to expect

1

Clinical assessment

We review medical history, facial animation and your goals, then explain appropriate options, benefits, risks and alternatives.

2

Treatment, if suitable

Where clinically appropriate and agreed, treatment usually takes 15–30 minutes with careful placement focused on softening movement rather than removing expression.

3

Aftercare & review

You receive written aftercare and can return at approximately two weeks so result, balance and symmetry can be reviewed.

Common concerns

What we assess during consultation

We assess facial movement in groups rather than treating isolated lines without considering neighbouring muscles and overall balance.

Consultant-led aesthetics

Experience grounded in facial anatomy

Questions

Anti-wrinkle consultation FAQs

Is this a prescription treatment?

Some options discussed involve prescription-only medicines and can only be prescribed after an appropriate face-to-face assessment confirms suitability.

Will I look frozen?

Our aesthetic is conservative and movement-friendly. The aim is to soften selected lines and tension while preserving natural expression.

How long do results last?

Where treatment is carried out, effects generally develop over the first one to two weeks and soften gradually over several months. Duration varies by area, dose, muscle activity and individual factors.

Is there downtime?

Most people resume usual activities straight away. Minor redness or pinpoint bruising can occur. Written aftercare is provided.

Do you offer a review?

Yes. Where treatment is undertaken, Santi offers a complimentary review at approximately two weeks so the result, balance and symmetry can be assessed.

Do I have to proceed after consultation?

No. The consultation can simply be used to understand your options and plan treatment. There is no obligation to proceed on the day.
