FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The best way to determine
suitability is a consultation with one of our practitioners. As a general
guide, expression line softening is most effective for lines that appear or
deepen with movement. If lines are deeply set at rest, a combination approach including
filler or skin resurfacing may produce better results. Certain medical
conditions and medications may also affect suitability, which we assess at your
consultation.
There is minimal downtime. Most
clients return to work and normal activities immediately. You may notice small
injection marks or mild redness at the treatment sites, which typically resolve
within a few hours. We ask that you avoid strenuous exercise, lying flat (for 4 hrs), and
significant heat (such as saunas) for 24 hours following treatment.
They work quite differently.
Muscle-relaxing treatments address dynamic lines — wrinkles caused by repeated facial movement, such as squinting or frowning. Dermal filler adds volume to
address static lines (lines visible at rest), hollow areas, and structural
loss. Many clients benefit from a combination of both, and we assess this at
your consultation.
Yes — natural movement is always
our goal. At The White Room Clinic, we aim for softening, not freezing. Our
practitioners are highly experienced in dosing and placement to ensure you
retain natural expression while reducing the visibility of dynamic lines. If
you've experienced an over-treated result elsewhere, we understand the concern
— and our approach is specifically designed to avoid it.
Results from expression line
softening typically last between 3 and 5 months, though this varies between
individuals depending on factors including muscle strength, metabolism,
lifestyle, and the areas treated. Some clients find that with regular treatment
over time, results last progressively longer as the muscles adapt. We discuss
your individual expectations at your consultation.
