Are you weighing up your options for anti-wrinkle injections in Belfast? With the arrival of Relfydess, there’s a lot of buzz about how it compares to the classic Botox treatment. As one of the first injectors in Belfast to be invited by Galderma to their official Relfydess launch, I want to share what sets these two treatments apart and help you make an informed decision.

What is Relfydess?

Relfydess is the latest prescription-only anti-wrinkle toxin available in Belfast. It’s designed to soften lines caused by facial movement, such as frown lines and crow’s feet. Relfydess stands out because it’s a ready-to-use liquid (no mixing required), uses PEARL Technology for stability, and acts fast—some people see results within 24 hours. Clinical research shows it can last up to six months, which means fewer appointments each year.

What is Botox?

Botox is the original and best-known anti-wrinkle injection. It’s also a prescription-only medicine, but comes as a powder that needs to be mixed before use. Botox typically takes three to seven days to work and lasts around three to four months for most people.
