What is Anti Wrinkle Injections? Anti-Wrinkle Injections are a simple, safe, and effective way to eliminate unwanted facial lines and deep wrinkles. They work to relax facial muscles making lines and wrinkles, such as worry lines, crow's feet and frown lines, less obvious. The result is a softer, younger and more rejuvenated appearance. What areas can you get Anti Wrinkle Injections? Can be administered to Frown Lines (between the eyebrows), Crow's Feet (around the eyes), or Forehead. 2 Areas of Anti-Wrinkle Injections. Popular treatments incl. Frown Lines, Crow's Feet, Forehead and Mini-brow Lift. How do Anti Wrinkle Injections work? • Anti-wrinkle injections deliver a product derived from a purified protein to targeted muscles. • These muscles are responsible for the wrinkle-inducing movements of the face. • Once, injected, the product immediately begins to relax these specific muscles and lines and wrinkles begin to soften. The injected treatment works by stopping communication between the nerve and the muscle, preventing the muscle in question from contracting and making the movements that would cause wrinkling of the skin. What are the benefits of anti-wrinkle injections? • Dramatically reduces visible signs of aging, fine lines & wrinkles. • You will look refreshed, younger and more vibrant. • Enhance your natural beauty. • Rejuvenated skin. • Speedy results. • No downtime. • Non- invasive procedure.

Why get immunized against the flu (also called influenza)?The flu is a very contagious infection of the airways. It is especially serious for babies, people over 65 years old and pregnant women. In some cases it can even result in death. By getting vaccinated against the flu, you can also help protect other people, especially people who are too sick or too young to be vaccinated. Who should get immunised against the flu? It is recommended for anyone above six months of age and should be administered every year. This is because the most common strains of the virus that cause the flu change every year. When is the best time to get the flu vaccine?Most people will develop immunity within two to three weeks of vaccination. There is recent evidence suggesting that protection following influenza vaccination may begin to wane. As influenza usually occurs from June, with the peak around August, vaccinating from mid-April 2019 will allow people to develop immunity before influenza transmission is at its peak. You can also speak to your doctor for advice on the best time to receive your vaccine, based on your individual circumstances. Flu vaccines will be available in April. Please call reception at 90440750 for any enquiries.Upper Beaconsfield GP Practice News
