* Please Note: There are two types of vitamin B12 in the body, these are active B12 and inactive B12, both make up Total B12. The simple difference between the two forms is that active B12 is the form used by the body. This type shows the reason for fatigue, tiredness and lack of energy, rather than Total which shows a combination of active and inactive. We can take both samples at the same appointment and the results are back within approx. 48hrs.

What areas can be treated?

It is most often used on forehead lines, crow’s feet, and frown lines. It can also be used for other areas such as the mouth and neck whilst also being an approved treatment for migraine relief and excessive underarm sweating – Check out our menu to read more about our advanced injectable aesthetics treatments.
How long until I see visible results?

You will not see a result straight away. It takes 2-3 days* to begin working, and approximately 2-3 weeks* to see the full effect. If after 3 weeks you are not 100% satisfied, get in touch with us and we can book you in for a top-up treatment free of charge. *Alluzience® begins working within 24 hours so visible results may be seen sooner than with standard botulinum toxin-a products.
How long do the results last for?

Botox® and Azzalure® generally last 3-4 months. There will certainly be patients in which it lasts longer, in the 4–6-month range, or shorter, in the 2-month range. It is also common for first time users to notice that it may not last as long initially but may last longer after the second treatment. Alluzience® is an advanced botulinum toxin-a new wrinkle-relaxing injection launched by Galderma, the world’s largest independent dermatology company). It starts to work sooner than other standard botulinum toxin brands and can last up to 6 months. Individual lifestyle choices may affect the longevity of the treatment e.g. people who exercise a lot or are very expressive may find the effects fade faster.
What products do we use at Peppermint Clinic?

We use Botox®, Azzalure® and a fairly new product called Alluzience®. Alluzience® has the potential to last up to 6 months so you can reduce the number of treatments you undergo per year, but it is not suitable for all areas. If you have questions, please contact us to discuss the individual products in more detail or book a free consultation to come in and have all your questions answered and discuss your suitability for the treatment, your goals, and expectations in more detail.
Does it hurt?

Pain is very subjective and personal - how we feel pain varies a lot from person to person and from time to time, e.g. studies have shown that women rate pain significantly higher in menstrual and premenstrual phases than during the rest of their cycle. A small pinch or sting that you would expect from inserting a small needle into any part of the body and you may feel a brief stinging sensation. The site of injection also influences the sensation of pain e.g. injections around the lips might feel more sensitive than those on the forehead.
Pre-treatment do’s & don’ts

Schedule your appointment at least 4 weeks prior to any special event or holiday to allow time for complete healing and optimal results. Reschedule your appointment if you develop a rash, cold sore or blemish in the treatment area. You should avoid taking blood thinning medications and anti-inflammatory medicines like ibuprofen for the 2 weeks leading up to your treatment. Also avoid aspirin, vitamin E, ginkgo biloba, ginseng, St. John's Wort, and Omega 3/Fish Oil supplements. You may wish to consider taking arnica tablets, available from most pharmacies, for one week prior and one week post treatment can help reduce the risk of swelling and bruising. Avoid alcoholic beverages at least 24 hours prior to treatment. Alcohol may thin the blood and increase the risk of bruising. Discontinue Retin-A two (2) days before and two (2) days after treatment.
Post-treatment do’s & don’ts

Avoid any strenuous activity or exercise for 24 hours after treatment. Avoid aggravating the injection site by rubbing or massaging the area. After 6 hours, you may gently wash the injection site but not before then. Avoid lying down for the first 4 hours post treatment. It is best to avoid alcohol for 24 hours post treatment. If possible, do not restart any blood thinning medication for several days after your treatment. If you are taking prescription blood thinning medication, please contact us to discuss your treatment options or book a free consultation to discuss this aspect of your treatment further. Avoid heat, tanning, self-tan, and tanning beds for 72 hours post treatment. Avoid any facials, laser treatments, or microdermabrasion for a minimum of 10 days following your procedure. If you are unsure about how long to wait before having a certain procedure, contact us or ask your practitioner during your appointment. Using a good sunscreen will protect the longevity of your treatment. Wearing sunglasses to reduce squinting will protect the longevity of your treatment.

The Science Behind It

Vitamin B12 (Cobalamin): Vitamin B12 is essential for DNA synthesis, red blood cell formation, and neurological function. It acts as a cofactor for enzymes involved in homocysteine metabolism and the synthesis of methionine, an amino acid required for DNA and protein methylation.

Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid): Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that neutralizes free radicals, thus protecting cells from oxidative damage. It is also vital for collagen synthesis, wound healing, and the maintenance of cartilage, bones, and teeth. Additionally, it enhances the absorption of non-heme iron from plant-based foods.

Vitamin D (Cholecalciferol): Vitamin D is crucial for calcium and phosphorus homeostasis and bone health. It binds to vitamin D receptors in various tissues, modulating the expression of genes involved in calcium absorption and bone mineralization. It also plays a role in immune function and inflammation regulation.

Vitamin H (Biotin): Biotin acts as a coenzyme for carboxylase enzymes involved in fatty acid synthesis, gluconeogenesis, and amino acid metabolism. It is essential for energy production, as it helps convert food into usable energy and supports the health of skin, hair, and nails.

Breaking it Down

Vitamin B12: This vitamin helps your body make DNA, red blood cells, and keeps your nerves working properly.

Vitamin C: Known for its antioxidant properties, Vitamin C helps protect your cells from damage, supports collagen production for healthy skin, and boosts your immune system.

Vitamin D: Important for strong bones and teeth, Vitamin D helps your body absorb calcium and supports your immune system.

Vitamin H (Biotin): Biotin helps your body convert food into energy and is essential for healthy skin, hair, and nails.
