Dr Brenda Maguire has been practising cosmetic medicine since 2006. She trained in London with plastic surgeons in the use of anti wrinkle injections and dermal fillers and attends advanced training updates regularly.

1. Anti Wrinkle Injections

Anti Wrinkle Injections are a prescription-only medical treatment designed to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on the upper face, including the forehead, frown lines and crow’s feet. Each of these is classed as one area for pricing. Treatment is provided only following a consultation with a qualified medical doctor, during which suitability, expected outcomes and potential risks are discussed.

How anti-wrinkle injections work

Anti-wrinkle injections work by temporarily relaxing specific facial muscles, helping to soften the appearance of dynamic lines caused by repeated facial movement. This can result in a smoother, more refreshed appearance while maintaining natural facial expression.

What to expect

• Doctor-led consultation

• Individualised treatment plan

• Quick, minimally invasive procedure

• No anaesthetic required

• Little to no downtime

Safety information

As with all prescription medical treatments, anti-wrinkle injections may be associated with mild and temporary side effects such as redness, swelling or bruising at the injection site. These will be fully discussed during your consultation.

Pricing

1 area: €190
2 areas: €230
3 areas: €260

Prices are per treatment session and are subject to medical assessment.

2. Excess sweating treatment

This procedure targets excess sweating of the underarms by a series of small prescription-only injections into the area. The procedure takes about 30 minutes. The price is €450 for both arm pits.

3. Dermal Fillers

Dermal Fillers are used to target deeper lines around the nose and mouth and upper lip. They can also be used to resculpt the nose and the jaw line and add volume to the mid face cheek area. They consist of a synthetic collagen which is injected just under the surface of the skin, filling out deep lines and depressed scars and adding volume and definition to the face.

The procedure takes about 45 minutes and the area is numbed before the treatment. Products used are Restylane and Definisse. Prices start from €300. Initial Doctor consultation is €60 which is deducted from the cost of the procedure if booked within 3 weeks. There may be some bruising after the procedure. The results are long lasting up to 12 months without being permanent. For further information, see www.restylane.com and www.relifecompany.com.
