How Long Do Anti-Wrinkle Injections Last? A Durham Clinic's Guide
By Lee Jameson-Laffey · 9 October 2026 · 1 min read

It is the question we hear most at our Durham clinic: how long will anti-wrinkle injections last? Here is an honest answer from The Aesthetic Surgery, Clinic of the Year 2025 at the North East Beauty Awards.

How long do anti-wrinkle injections last?
Most clients notice a softening of lines within 3 to 5 days, with the full effect at around 2 weeks. Results commonly last 3 to 4 months, gradually fading rather than stopping suddenly.
What affects how long results last
- Your metabolism and activity level
- The strength of the muscles being treated
- The area treated, such as frown lines, forehead or crow's feet
- How regularly you have treatment
- Sun exposure, smoking and your general skincare
Why a review appointment matters
We see clients again around two weeks after treatment to check the result and make sure you are happy. It is also when we plan the right timing for your next appointment.
Is anti-wrinkle treatment right for me?
Every treatment starts with a consultation covering your medical history, goals and suitability. Some people are not suitable, and we will always tell you honestly.
