Wrinkle Reduction in Hobart
Smoother skin isn’t just about softening lines; it’s about achieving a more radiant appearance. It’s about preserving movement, refining expression, and maintaining natural balance. At Bloom Aesthetic Clinic in Hobart, wrinkle reduction treatments are designed to smooth dynamic lines and prevent deep-set wrinkles without freezing your facial expressions. Experienced nurse injector Sarah Munnings perform every treatment.
Soft expression. Smooth skin. Natural movement.
Wrinkle reduction, also known as wrinkle relaxers, is a non-surgical treatment that temporarily relaxes targeted facial muscles. It helps soften existing lines, prevent new wrinkles, and restore a fresher appearance. This treatment is suitable for clients who notice fine lines, deepening expression lines, or want to maintain smoother skin over time. Each session at Bloom is led by experienced nurse injector Sarah Munnings and tailored to preserve your natural expression, rather than alter it.
Targeted Smoothing
Wrinkle reduction treatments at Bloom focus on areas where repetitive movement causes visible lines and wrinkles. Common zones include the forehead, the frown area, and the area around the eyes. Small, precise adjustments help soften these lines without compromising expression.
Natural Movement
Overcorrection can lead to a frozen appearance. At Bloom, the goal is controlled relaxation enough to smooth, not to immobilise. Movement is preserved, so your face still looks like you.
Preventative Benefits
When started early, wrinkle relaxers can prevent deeper lines from forming by reducing repetitive muscle activity. This helps maintain smoother skin in the long term, with fewer lines setting in over time.
The Treatment Process
Every wrinkle relaxer treatment at Bloom begins with a detailed consultation with registered nurse Sarah Munnings. Your medical history, skin concerns, facial movements, and desired outcome are thoroughly reviewed. Sarah will assess your facial anatomy, focusing on areas such as the forehead, frown lines, and crow’s feet, to ensure the treatment is both safe and suitable. This includes checking for any history of muscle disorders, allergies, or previous cosmetic treatments.
This is also your time to ask questions, explore realistic outcomes, and make an informed decision. At Bloom, we prioritise transparency, safety, and clinical integrity. Treatment only proceeds when you’re fully informed and comfortable.
Wrinkle reduction treatments have minimal downtime. You may notice mild redness, slight swelling or tiny injection site marks immediately after treatment, which usually subside within a few hours. Most people return to work or daily activities the same day.
Results typically begin to develop within 2 to 4 days, with full effect usually visible at 10 to 14 days. Treated muscles will gradually relax, softening lines while maintaining natural movement. Depending on your metabolism and treatment area, results last approximately 3 to 4 months.
The procedure is quick and precise. Using a fine needle, Sarah applies a small amount of wrinkle relaxer to targeted muscles, commonly in the forehead, glabella (frown lines), or around the eyes. This works to reduce the muscle activity that contributes to both static and dynamic wrinkles.
The full appointment usually takes around 20 minutes. Sarah works conservatively to maintain natural expression, avoiding a frozen or overcorrected appearance. All products are selected for their safety, quality, and suitability for your individual facial structure and movement patterns.

Aftercare is simple. You’ll receive clear instructions to support a smooth recovery and optimal results. These may include:
• Avoiding intense exercise, heat, and alcohol for 24 hours
• Not lying down for four hours post-treatment
• Avoiding pressure or massage on the treated area
• Staying upright and mobile in the hours following the treatment
Most people resume normal activities immediately. Follow-up appointments can be scheduled if adjustments are needed after two weeks.
All wrinkle reduction treatments carry some risk, though adverse events are rare when performed by an experienced injector. Common side effects include:
• Temporary redness or swelling at injection sites
• Minor bruising
• Mild headache or tightness
Less common effects may include:
• Temporary asymmetry (e.g., uneven brow height)
• Localised muscle weakness
• Eyelid heaviness (rare and usually temporary)
All clients are screened for contraindications, and Sarah is trained to manage complications promptly and effectively. Bloom also offers after-hours clinical support if required.
Why Choose Bloom Aesthetic Clinic Hobart
Combine Your Cosmetic Therapies
From lip volumisation to wrinkle reduction, see how Hobart clients layer treatments for greater impact.
Enhance softness and shape below the smile line
Adding subtle volume to the lips complements wrinkle relaxers in the upper face. This pairing supports balance and ensures the lower third of the face isn’t overlooked.
Soften tension and sharpen definition
Relieving tightness in the lower face with wrinkle relaxers can be paired with structural sculpting to enhance facial contours, especially for clients with jaw clenching or masseter dominance.
Restore midface lift and support expression
Wrinkle relaxers reduce dynamic lines, but volume in the cheeks provides structure and lift. Together, they create a rested, youthful appearance that remains expressive and natural.
Frequently Asked Questions
Wrinkle reduction treatments typically last three to four months, depending on the area treated, your metabolism, and the dose used. Results may last slightly longer in cooler climates, such as Hobart’s. At Bloom, nurse Sarah Munnings selects dosing strategies based on your facial activity and aesthetic goals to optimise longevity
Most clients experience minimal downtime. Mild redness, small bumps, or pinpoint swelling can appear immediately after treatment and usually resolve within 30 minutes. Light activity can be resumed immediately, but avoid strenuous exercise, alcohol, and applying pressure to the area for 24 hours. Full results typically appear within 3 to 7 days, with the peak effect occurring around two weeks.
Discomfort is generally low. The needles used are extremely fine, and each injection takes just a few seconds. Clients often describe the sensation as a brief stinging or pinching sensation. If you’re concerned about sensitivity, Bloom offers pre-treatment measures to improve comfort, especially for first-time clients
While wrinkle relaxers cannot be reversed in the same way as facial volumisation, dosing can be refined in future sessions. A conservative approach is often taken for initial treatments to avoid overcorrection, with follow-up appointments available to review results and make any necessary adjustments
Avoid alcohol, aspirin, anti-inflammatories, and supplements such as fish oil or vitamin E for 24 to 48 hours beforehand unless directed otherwise by your GP. Arrive with clean skin, free of makeup or skincare. If you’re prone to bruising, speak to the clinic for tailored preparation advice.
