How Effective are Cosmetic Injections?
Get in touch with us
How Effective are Cosmetic Injections? As we age, wrinkles and deep lines start developing on the face. Gravity causes sleep lines and vertical lines to appear. At times sun damage-related or facial expression lines show up on the face too. Our skin also tends to develop fine wrinkles around the eyes, cheeks and mouth and all of these are signs of aging. In most instances wrinkles on the forehead are associated with how expressions of anger, sadness and anxiety show up on our face and they impact the way we looks.
Cosmetic Injections: The Ideal Treatment
Today, there are a number of treatments which help in getting rid of all these fine lines and wrinkles- some are surgical while others are non-surgical. Most people don’t want to go under the knife and prefer Cosmetic Injections in Sydney. This procedure produces dramatic effects, is reversible and has very minimal side-effects. These injections are effective in fixing skin imperfections, but have also been used for decades in adults & children to correct double vision, muscle spasm of facial muscles as well as excessive sweating and tension headaches.
About Cosmetic Injections
Cosmetic injections are essentially a very small part of the protein-chain of a real toxin. In this treatment, a series of these injections are placed in muscles that surround wrinkles and fine lines. This treatment temporarily relaxes the muscles which have been over-contracted and result in deep lines. Facial expression muscles are injected. This selective relaxation of the muscles smoothes wrinkling on the forehead, crow’s feet, frown lines, & smoker’s lines; this dramatically improves the appearance of the neck and face.
The Effective Treatment
How Effective are Cosmetic Injections? Many people tend to develop crow’s feet; these are deep, well-established oblique & horizontal furrows that appear around the eyes- these are caused by the muscles’ squeezing action. Cosmetic Injections in Sydney prevents this contraction of muscles and the lines disappear. These treatments are very effective and most people can expect between 75-95% improvement in the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. The injection stays effective for 2-5 months/ longer based on every individual. When you feel that the results of the injection are beginning to wear off, that is the time you have to come to Results Laser Clinic for the next injection.

Marionette Lines
Get in touch with us
Marionette lines refer to the lines or wrinkles that extend from the outer corners of the mouth down towards the chin and jaw line. These can be a problem area, as people’s eyes are drawn to the lower part of your face while you talk and communicate. If you have deep marionette lines, they may cause you to appear unhappy, even when you’re not!
How do they come to be? As time passes, ligaments that hold skin volume in place weaken, causing volume from the mid face to descend towards the jaw line. The muscles that naturally pull down the corners of the mouth may accentuate the accumulation of skin around the jaw line. At Results Laser Clinic, we treat marionette lines with cosmetic dermal fillers.
Our cosmetic dermal fillers are composed of a complex sugar. This complex sugar occurs naturally within the human body, thus rendering it an entirely safe dermal filler injection to treat marionette lines. So safe in fact, that allergy testing is not required prior to this treatment. Our highly trained cosmetic Nurses essentially inject the dermal filler into the problem area to plump and smooth it out, and lessen the severity of the marionette lines. This can all be done in a very short amount of time.
There is minimal recovery time needed- the worst side effect you may see after dermal filler treatment for marionette lines is slight bruising. The dermal fillers last for approximately six months, and are naturally absorbed back into the body as time progresses. At Results Laser Clinic (NSW, VIC and QLD), we always employ the highest standard of product, and service in all areas of our business.
Although we are known for our state of the art laser hair removal techniques, our dermal filler injections to correct marionette lines and problems in the lower face are just as much frontrunners in the field of cosmetic enhancement. Don’t dance like a marionette on a string to the beat of ageing and time- treat your marionette lines today at Results Laser Clinic.

Lip injections
Get in touch with us
There are a plethora of issues that people may have with their lips. The most common issue is thin lips, although sometimes it is not just the fullness of your lips that may be the concern, but the shape, and even where the border of your lip may end. At Results Laser Clinic, thin lips, and all the other inherent lip issues are entirely treatable with cosmetic dermal fillers.
Cosmetic dermal fillers are placed beneath the skin to ‘fill in’ or ‘plump up’ the perceived problem area in your lips. Lips are an extremely common area of the lower face that people are interested in augmenting, plumping up, and simply, rejuvenating overall. Cosmetic dermal fillers or lip injections are a safe and effective way of treating the lips, and creating that new, highly sought after, fuller, perfect pout.
At Results Laser Clinic, our dermal fillers primarily consist of a complex sugar. This sugar occurs naturally within the human body, thus rendering it an entirely safe lip injection. So safe in fact, that allergy testing is not required. Our cosmetic nurses simply inject threads of dermal filler into strategic areas of the lip in order to augment the lip itself, and to create beautiful, desirable, fuller lips. As time progresses, the dermal filler lip injection is gradually absorbed back into the body, as nature intended. The dermal fillers can last for up to five months, and the treatment to transform those thin lips into pouting, volumised fullness, can be done at Results Laser Clinic in a time frame as small as your lunch break.
At Results Laser Clinic (NSW, VIC and QLD), we always employ the highest standard of product, and service in all areas of our business. Although we are known for our state of the art laser hair removal techniques, our dermal filler lip injections are just as much frontrunners in the field of cosmetic enhancement.
At Results Laser Clinic, we understand that you don’t want to be walking out with an over the top ‘trout pout’ sported by so many trashy, B-grade celebrities. Our dermal filler lip injections are like an art form, and our cosmetic nurses are trained to administer the lip injections in strategic places that will enhance your lips natural gorgeousness, without detracting from the beauty of your face.
