INJECTION
TREATMENTS AT PURE FOR FINE LINES AND WRINKLES
|
|
Injection
treatments are an effective anti-ageing treatment to smooth fine lines and
wrinkles and are particularly effective around the eyes and
forehead. Treatments and consultations are provided at
all PURE locations, by a fully qualified doctor who has
undergone specific training for these treatments. Our
approach to anti-ageing is, like the PURE philosophy, very
much about treating the individual and tailoring a solution to
suit. PURE
also offer chemical peel treatments and hold a regular peel
clinic. Click

Injection
Treatments |
20
mins : £200-£300 |

The
treatment takes around 20 minutes. The doctor will ask you to
use certain muscles in the face to observe how they work.
Areas to be treated are marked and then injected using a very
fine short needle. This may cause slight but brief discomfort.
After the injections the area may have some slight redness and
swelling which resolves after one to two hours. The protocol
of injection (doses, number of injections) will be decided
based on the expectations of the patient and the clinical
examination, looking in particular at the way the patient
expresses themselves; for example, frowning, raising the
eyebrows or smiling may accentuate the facial lines.
The
full effect is seen 1 to 2 weeks after the procedure and
usually lasts from 2 to 6 months. The cost of the
treatment ranges between £200-£300 depending on the number
of areas to be treated.
This also includes follow up consultation. |

Treatment of Excess Sweating |
£400 |
|
|
|
If
you suffer from excess underarm excess sweating (hyperhidrosis),
anti-sweat injections may be the answer for you. This is
a life-altering procedure for those suffering from excess
sweating that works by blocking the chemical that activates
the sweat glands. These treatments give improved results
where others have disappointed, and with reduced risk.
The
doctor at PURE has been specifically trained in the use of
Botox to treat excess underarm sweating. A free initial
consultation is provided to discuss the treatment and answer
any questions. If suitable for treatment, a further
appointment can be made for the treatment itself. A
follow-up consultation is also made to assess the effect.
A
course of injections to treat auxiliary sweating takes a total
of around 30 minutes to 1 hour. Clinical studies have
shown that this treatment reduces the amount of sweating by
75-80% and a course usually lasts on average 6-7 months.

What
is Botox?
|
|
|
|
|
Botulinum
Toxin (derived from the bacterium Clostridium Botulinum)
blocks the release of acetylcholine, which is a chemical
substance responsible for muscle contraction. When injected
into muscles, the toxin blocks transmission between the nerve
endings and muscle fibres around the injection site to cause
temporary relaxing of the muscle.
When
injected into the facial muscles this leaves the overlying
skin looking smooth and less wrinkled.
Botulinum toxin injections can soften the lines of the
forehead, the frown lines and the crow's feet around the eyes.
Wrinkle relaxing treatment works only on the specific
muscles injected leaving surrounding muscles to function as
usual, so that your face is not expressionless. The effect is
completely reversible and generally lasts for 2 to 6 months.
The procedure is safe and most side effects minor, temporary
and resolve with time.
For the first year, treatments every four months are
recommended to ‘re-educate’ the facial muscles. Thereafter
treatments may be less frequent until longer maintenance
treatments of up to a year may be all that is required. This
varies from patient to patient. |
