Wrinkle Relaxing Injections
reduce the appearance of facial
lines and wrinkles
Fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes are a natural part of ageing, often caused by facial movement, sun exposure, and a gradual decline in skin elasticity. At Real You Clinic, Dr Kathryn offers expert, non-surgical treatments to smooth, hydrate, and rejuvenate the delicate eye area. Using advanced techniques including wrinkle-relaxing injections, skin boosters, laser treatments, and polynucleotides, we target both early and deeper signs of ageing for brighter, firmer, and more youthful-looking eyes all while preserving natural expression.

About
The treatment
As we get older the collagen and hyaluronic acid production in our body starts to slow down causing our skin to become less plump, elastic and youthful, allowing fine lines and wrinkles to start appearing around our eyes and in our face.
With more than 16 years as a qualified GP, Dr Kathryn understands that each and every one of her clients is different, with their own medical history and perceived problem areas. This is why she works with a wide range of the latest professional products, matching them to each client’s individual needs to deliver the most effective results.
This ensures you get the most appropriate products for you, each and every time, safe in the knowledge that Dr Kathryn is a professional practitioner who will look after you every step of the way.

The science
There are very few treatments that actually do what it says on the bottle. Anti-wrinkle injections are a winner!
Many people have treatments in preparation for a special party, event or wedding when photographs will be taken and they want to look refreshed. Others have fillers to look and feel younger, refreshed and to compliment a new look or hairstyle. The injection treatment is virtually pain-free and produces natural yet effective results. It is a great treatment to keep developing lines at bay and keep you looking youthful, rested and refreshed. It is a real confidence booster when you look good and feel good about yourself.
Ideal Candidates
Wrinkle-relaxing injections are ideal for individuals looking to reduce the appearance of fine lines and dynamic wrinkles, particularly around the eyes, forehead, and frown lines. You may be a suitable candidate if you’re noticing early signs of ageing or want to maintain a smoother, more youthful appearance without surgery. This treatment is safe and effective for both men and women and is tailored by Dr Kathryn to suit your facial anatomy and aesthetic goals.
What to Expect Post-Treatment
After treatment, you may notice slight redness or small bumps at the injection sites—these typically fade within 15–30 minutes. There is no significant downtime, and most clients resume normal activities straight away. Results usually begin to appear within 3 to 7 days, with full smoothing effects visible by 2 weeks. Dr Kathryn will provide aftercare guidance and a follow-up plan to ensure optimal, natural-looking results.
