Anti-Wrinkle Treatments Edinburgh
Anti-wrinkle injections use botulinum toxin — a purified, medical-grade protein — to temporarily relax the facial muscles responsible for expression lines. When these muscles contract repeatedly over years, they create dynamic wrinkles: the forehead lines, frown lines between the brows, and crow's feet around the eyes that deepen with age. By precisely relaxing these muscles, the overlying skin smooths and lines soften dramatically.
At Obsidian Clinics Edinburgh, our approach is conservative and precise. We use clinically proven botulinum toxin brands, administered by our multi award-winning practitioner with over 20 years of industry experience. The goal is never to freeze your face — it is to help you look refreshed, rested, and naturally yourself.
Treatment Areas & Benefits
Who Is It For?
Anti-wrinkle injections are suitable for adults who wish to:
Not suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Full medical history taken at consultation.
Treatment Areas
Botulinum toxin is precise by design — it targets specific muscles only, leaving surrounding tissue and movement unaffected. At Obsidian Clinics Edinburgh, we treat the following areas as standard, and discuss any additional concerns at your consultation.
Horizontal lines across the forehead that deepen with expression. Treatment relaxes the frontalis muscle to smooth the brow without restricting natural movement or causing brow drop.
Most requested areaVertical lines between the brows — often called "elevens" — caused by the corrugator and procerus muscles. One of the most effective areas for botulinum toxin, with excellent, long-lasting results.
Highly effectiveFine lines radiating from the outer corners of the eyes — the result of squinting and smiling over years. Precise treatment of the orbicularis oculi muscle softens these lines beautifully while keeping a natural look.

Your Treatment Journey
Anti-wrinkle treatments are quick, minimally invasive and require no significant downtime. Here is a step-by-step overview of your experience at Obsidian Clinics Edinburgh.
We assess your facial muscle activity, discuss your concerns and goals, and review your full medical history. Photographs may be taken with your permission to help plan treatment. No obligation — your safety and informed consent always come first.
The treatment area is cleansed and prepared. Numbing cream is not typically required as the needles used are very fine and discomfort is minimal — most clients describe a brief, mild pinching sensation at each injection point.
Using ultra-fine needles, botulinum toxin is injected into targeted muscles with great accuracy. The treatment typically takes 15–20 minutes. Mild redness at injection sites settles quickly.
Initial effects begin within 3–5 days as the product takes effect. Avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol, and excessive heat for 24 hours. Results continue to develop and settle fully over the first two weeks.
We schedule a complimentary review at two weeks to assess your full result and perform any minor adjustments if needed. This is the best time to evaluate the outcome and discuss any questions. Future maintenance appointments are typically every 3–4 months.
