Line and wrinkle smoothing

Vistabel can help reduce facial lines and wrinkles, but also has other advantages - like reducing excessive sweating.

Lines and wrinkles

Lines and wrinkles develop from environmental damage (sun, smoking, diet) and as a natural side-effect of ageing. The sun is particularly bad for the skin which is why facial wrinkles including eye wrinkles and hand wrinkles are more common.

Treatment areas

VISTABEL® is one of our most popular treatments and helps to soften frown lines and crow's feet. For deeper wrinkles, you may need dermal fillers.

The treatment can also be used treat excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis).

How the treatment works

The treatment usually only takes 15 minutes, depending on the areas being treated. A very fine needle is injected into the area where the lines and wrinkles appear. This temporarily relaxes the muscles so that they no longer crease.

Line and wrinkle smoothing results

The results will take from 4-10 days to become visible. Depending on your lifestyle and how your muscles react to the treatment, the effects can last between 3-4 months.

Non-surgical treatment combinations

The effects of line and wrinkle treatments can be prolonged with complementary non-surgical treatments such as facial peels. Read our guide to related treatments that can you help give you fewer lines and wrinkles.
