Facial Aesthetic Treatments FAQs
What are anti-wrinkle treatments and how do they work?
Anti-wrinkle injections use a purified protein (botulinum toxin) to temporarily relax the facial muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles from repeated expressions such as frowning or squinting. This softens lines on the forehead, between the brows (frown lines), and around the eyes (crow’s feet). At Rock Road Dental, treatments are performed by trained clinicians who focus on achieving natural-looking results while preserving your ability to make normal facial expressions.
When will I see results and how long do they last?
You will usually notice improvements within 3–7 days, with the full effect developing after 10–14 days. Results typically last 3–6 months, depending on the individual, the areas treated, and lifestyle factors. Many patients return for maintenance treatments every 3–4 months to keep their refreshed appearance.
Is the treatment painful and is there any downtime?
Most patients describe the sensation as a quick pinch from a very fine needle. The procedure itself takes only 15–30 minutes. There is minimal to no downtime — you can return to normal activities immediately afterwards. Some mild redness or tiny bumps may appear at the injection sites but usually settle within a few hours.
Will I look frozen or unnatural after treatment?
No. Our clinicians at Rock Road Dental are experienced in delivering subtle, natural results. The goal is a relaxed, well-rested appearance rather than a “frozen” look. We tailor every treatment to your facial anatomy so you can still express yourself naturally.
Are anti-wrinkle treatments safe and who is suitable?
When carried out by qualified medical professionals, anti-wrinkle treatments have an excellent long-term safety record. In Ireland they are prescription-only medicines. They may not be suitable if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have certain neuromuscular conditions. A thorough consultation is always performed first to assess suitability and discuss your goals.
