Anti-Wrinkle Injections
Anti-wrinkle injections use very small, precisely placed doses of a prescription medicine to relax the specific facial muscles that repeatedly crease the skin — most commonly frown lines, forehead lines and crow’s feet. The aim at NexGen is never a frozen look: it is softened movement with your natural expression intact.
In brief
NexGen Clinic in Cambridge offers consultation-led anti-wrinkle injections to soften frown lines, forehead lines and crow’s feet. Treatment involves prescription-only medicine, so every client has a face-to-face assessment with a qualified prescriber first — in line with UK MHRA and ASA rules. Prices start from £150 for one area; results typically develop over 3–14 days and last around 3–4 months. Free consultations are available at the Cambridge clinic.
The NexGen approach
Considered, consultation-led anti-wrinkle injections
Because this treatment involves a prescription-only medicine, UK regulations require a face-to-face assessment with a qualified prescriber before any treatment is planned. That consultation is built into every NexGen journey — we assess your facial movement, discuss what is realistic and prescribe only where it is clinically appropriate.
Who this may suit
- Frown lines between the brows (“11 lines”)
- Horizontal forehead lines
- Crow’s feet around the eyes
- Jaw tension and teeth grinding (bruxism) — assessed at consultation
- A preference for subtle, natural-looking softening rather than a “frozen” result
Before anything else
What to expect at your consultation
UK rules on prescription-only medicines mean your journey always starts with a face-to-face consultation with a prescriber. We assess your facial movement and medical history, agree realistic outcomes, and only prescribe where appropriate. There is never pressure to proceed, and a review appointment at 2–3 weeks is part of the plan.

Anti-Wrinkle Injections questions
Frequently asked questions
How much do anti-wrinkle injections cost in Cambridge?
At NexGen Clinic prices start from £150 for one area, with multi-area plans quoted transparently at consultation. Your exact plan depends on your facial movement and goals — there are no hidden costs.
How long do results last?
Most clients enjoy results for around 3–4 months. Movement returns gradually and treatment can be repeated once it does — we advise on safe, sensible spacing.
Why do I need a consultation first?
Anti-wrinkle injections involve a prescription-only medicine, which UK regulations (MHRA/ASA) do not allow to be sold directly. A face-to-face assessment with a prescriber is a legal and clinical requirement — and it is how we keep results safe and natural.
Will I look frozen or unnatural?
No — our philosophy is softened movement, not elimination. We dose conservatively and review at 2–3 weeks, preferring to build up gradually rather than over-treat.
Can it help with teeth grinding or jaw tension?
Treatment of the masseter (jaw) muscles can help some clients with bruxism and jaw tension, and can slim the lower face. Suitability is assessed by our prescriber at consultation.
