What to Expect: A Guide for First-Time Anti-Wrinkle Treatment Clients: 

If you’re considering anti-wrinkle injections for the first time, it’s natural to have questions—or even a little anxiety. At Luminosity Aesthetics, we prioritise your comfort, safety, and confidence. This guide will walk you through everything you need to know, so you feel fully prepared and reassured every step of the way. 

1. Your Consultation: Understanding Your Needs Before any treatment, we start with a thorough consultation. This is your opportunity to:  

• Discuss your goals – Whether it’s softening fine lines or preventing future wrinkles.
• Ask questions – We’re here to address any concerns, big or small.
• Assess suitability – We’ll review your medical history to ensure the treatment is right for you.

If you decide to proceed, we’ll design a personalised treatment plan tailored to your facial anatomy and desired outcome.

2. The Treatment Process: Quick & Comfortable  

• Cleansing & Numbing (if needed) – The treatment area is cleaned, and while most clients find it very tolerable, we can apply a numbing cream if preferred.  
• Precise, Gentle Injections – Using ultra-fine needles, tiny amounts of the product are injected into targeted muscles. This takes just a few minutes.  
• Minimal Discomfort – Most people describe it as a tiny pinch or pressure rather than pain.

3. Aftercare: What to Do (and Avoid!) To ensure the best results, follow these simple guidelines:

• Avoid rubbing or massaging the area for 24 hours.  
• Stay upright for at least 4 hours post-treatment.  
• Skip strenuous exercise for 24 hours.  

No facials, saunas, or hot baths for 48 hours. Minor redness, swelling, or tiny bumps at the injection sites are normal and usually fade within an hour or two.

4. When Will I See Results?

Anti-wrinkle injections don’t work instantly, but you’ll start noticing a smoother appearance within 3-5 days, with full results developing in 10-14 days. The effect typically lasts 3-4 months, depending on your metabolism and lifestyle.

5. Will I Look ‘Frozen’ or Overdone? Absolutely not! At Luminosity Aesthetics, we specialise in natural-looking enhancements. Our goal is to refresh your appearance while keeping your expressions intact. 

6. Follow-Up & Maintenance We offer a complimentary follow-up at 2 weeks to assess your results and make any necessary adjustments. Regular treatments can help maintain smooth, youthful skin and prevent deeper lines from forming over time. 

Your Journey to a More Confident You Your first anti-wrinkle treatment should be an exciting experience, not a stressful one. We’re here to guide you with expertise, care, and a commitment to natural, beautiful results.

If you have any concerns before or after your treatment, we’re always just a message away!
