Anti-Wrinkle Treatments
Botox in Ashtead, Surrey
Discover a Younger, Fresher You
At Forever Facial Aesthetics, we specialise in Botox—a quick, safe, and non-invasive injectable treatment that smooths wrinkles, rebalances facial features, and rejuvenates your appearance.
Why Choose Botox?
Botox is the original and most extensively studied anti-wrinkle treatment, trusted by millions worldwide. It acts as a muscle relaxant, temporarily reducing activity in the facial muscles that cause expression lines such as frown lines, forehead furrows, and crow’s feet. The result? A smoother, more youthful look that maintains your natural expressions.
Advanced Botox Treatments
Botox is widely known for its ability to soften frown lines and smooth crow’s feet, but its potential goes far beyond basic wrinkle reduction. At our aesthetic clinic, in Surrey we offer advanced Botox treatments delivered by our highly skilled aesthetic Doctor with an in-depth understanding of facial anatomy and aesthetic balance.
In addition to the upper face, advanced Botox techniques can target the following areas and concerns:

- Bunny lines: Smooth horizontal lines on the nose.
- Eyebrow shaping: Relax the muscles that pull the eyebrows down.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Botox?
Botox, short for botulinum toxin, is a purified protein that temporarily relaxes muscles, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. It’s a popular non-surgical cosmetic treatment used to smooth facial expressions and create a more youthful appearance.
How does Botox work?
Botox works by blocking nerve signals to targeted muscles, preventing them from contracting. This relaxation of the muscles helps soften existing wrinkles and prevents new ones from forming.
What areas can be treated with Botox?
Botox is commonly used to treat:
- Forehead lines
- Crow’s feet (lines around the eyes)
- Frown lines (vertical lines between the eyebrows)
It can also address other concerns, such as:
- Lip lines (smoker’s lines)
- Chin dimpling
- Jaw muscles (to reduce jaw clenching or create a slimmer jawline)
How long does Botox last?
The effects of Botox typically last for 3 to 4 months depending on factors like the treated area, individual metabolism, and dosage. Regular maintenance treatments can help prolong results.
What are the potential side effects of Botox?
Most side effects are mild and temporary. These may include:
- Pain, swelling, or bruising at the injection site
- Headache or flu-like symptoms
- Temporary drooping of the eyelid or eyebrow
- Asymmetry in facial expressions
Serious side effects are rare when the procedure is performed by a qualified professional.
What is the recovery process after Botox treatment?
Recovery is typically quick, with minimal downtime. Most patients can return to daily activities immediately. However, it’s recommended to avoid strenuous exercise, lying down for 4 hours, or massaging the treated area for the first 24 hours to ensure optimal results.
How long does it take to see results?
Initial results are often noticeable within 24 to 48 hours, but it may take up to two weeks for the full effect to develop.
Is Botox safe?
Yes, Botox is generally considered safe when administered by a qualified medical professional. To minimise risks, always choose a licensed practitioner with experience in cosmetic injectables.
Who will perform my Botox treatment?
Dr Annette Philips leads a team of highly-qualified doctors and nurses at Forever Facial Aesthetics. They are all specialists in the art of reducing lines and wrinkles with Botox while preserving a natural look. All patients have a consultation ahead of having Botox to ensure they receive a safe, high-quality treatment with us.
What should I do after Botox treatment?
To ensure the best results, follow these aftercare tips:
Avoid touching or rubbing the treated area for at least 24 hours.
- Refrain from intense heat exposure (e.g., saunas or sunbathing) for 24 to 48 hours.
- Avoid alcohol and blood-thinning medications for a few days to reduce bruising.
- Some practitioners recommend making exaggerated facial expressions (like frowning) for about an hour post-treatment to help distribute the product evenly.
