Overactive facial muscles can contribute to the formation of active facial lines and wrinkles. In combination with loss of collagen and elastin due to aging and/or sun damage, these lines become increasingly apparent and permanent. Anti-wrinkle injections, known as botulinum toxin, can be injected to relax the muscle, reducing or eliminating the appearance of wrinkles.

I went to LTC for a hormone consultation and initially felt really nervous after waiting years to get to this point in my life.
Everyone I met was lovely and during my consultation Shirley was brilliant. Right from the start of the appointment she made me feel really comfortable and was really easy to talk to. Shirley was very informative which helped me decide which method of taking testosterone would be best suited for me. Best of all, I was given my prescription for T on that appointment!
I had a really positive experience with the LTC and can’t wait to go back in 6 months for my check up. Massive thank you to Shirley for all her help and helping me to feel so comfortable.
