Anti Wrinkle Treatment
in Dubai
A consultation first, a considered plan second. Lines around the eyes, forehead and between the brows form from repeated facial movement, sun exposure and the natural changes in skin over time. Anti wrinkle injections are one option some people consider. Dr Fouzia is a consultant family physician who offers a doctor-led consultation in Dubai before any treatment. She reviews your health, explains how treatment works, what it involves, the risks and what is realistic, and you decide whether to go ahead.
Areas often discussed.
What the treatment is.
Anti wrinkle injections are given in small amounts into targeted facial muscles to reduce the movement that creases the skin above them. They are a medical procedure and the medicine used is prescription-only, so they should only be given after assessment by a licensed doctor. Whether treatment is suitable depends on your face, your goals and your health. Not every line needs treating.
What to expect at your visit.
Effects take days to appear and wear off over time, so repeat treatment is needed to maintain them.
A consultation covering your goals, medical history, medicines, allergies and skin
A discussion of options, risks, possible side effects, costs and what results are realistic
Written consent before anything is done
Treatment, which is quick and is usually done in the clinic during the same visit
Aftercare advice, and a review where agreed
Why a doctor-led approach matters.
A doctor can check whether treatment is safe for you, tailor it to your face, and manage side effects or complications if they occur. Dr Fouzia will tell you if treatment is not suitable, not needed or better delayed.
Possible side effects include redness, swelling, bruising, headache or a drooping eyelid or brow. These usually settle with time. Rare complications can occur and will be explained at your consultation.
When treatment may not be suitable.
Treatment is generally not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, with certain neuromuscular conditions, an infection at the treatment site or an allergy to the product, or while taking some medicines. Share your full medical history so the doctor can assess your individual situation.
Your safety comes first.
Seek urgent care for difficulty breathing or swallowing, widespread rash, swelling of the face or throat, drooping that affects vision, or severe pain after treatment. In the UAE, call 998 for an ambulance for emergencies. Contact the clinic first for any concern.
