Wrinkle Relaxers
Wrinkle relaxers are commonly used to treat fine lines to create a younger more refreshed look. The solution injected is a safe muscle-relaxant, used by doctors around the world for decades.
It is one of the most studied and researched procedures and has no long-term side effects.
The injections are most commonly used in the frown lines, crows’ feet and forehead lines. Immediately after the injections, patients will have small mosquito bite-like bumps in the injected area. This subsides within 10 minutes, and can be covered with non-allergenic makeup by our staff after your appointment.
The effects of the injections take between 5-10 days to appear.
Due to strict advertising guidelines, we are unable to use the brand names, but we commonly refer to them as “Type B” and “Type D”.
- Wrinkle relaxer “Type B” costs $15.00 per unit.
- Wrinkle relaxer “Type D” costs $7.50 per unit*
*Type D requires 2.5 units to 1 unit of B; therefore, the overall costs are very similar.
As a general rule of thumb*:
- Frown lines require around 16-24 units of Type B
- Forehead lines around 8-14 units Type B
- Crows feet around 8-14 units each side Type B
*Please note, individual needs vary significantly. A free consultation is always recommended in order to obtain correct pricing.
IF GOING AHEAD WE ASK THAT YOU:
- Do not lie flat for 4 hours after the procedure.
- Are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- Do not rub the area for four hours. For example – if you have any facials or eyebrow appointments booked you won’t be able to go ahead for four hours only.
- No excessive exercise and alcohol for 12-24 hours.
DERMAL FILLERS
Dermal fillers are used to plump out deeper creases, re-volumize the skin, creating a younger appearance.
Fillers are also used to plump cheeks and lips to provide natural-looking fullness and definition that lasts between 12 and 18 months. We also offer non-surgical rhinoplasty and tear trough rejuvenation using dermal fillers.
The fillers are made from a naturally occurring complex sugar, which is naturally found within the tissues of living cells including human skin. It assists in skin hydration by attracting and holding water. It also combines with collagen and elastin to help provide skin structure and elasticity.
Because it is a product naturally occurring within the skin there is no need for an allergy test before treatment, and 80% of results are immediate.
Due to strict advertising guidelines, we are unable to use the brand names.
Our premium dermal filler starts at $550 for 1ml.

- Are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- Do not have any active cold sores – we can’t go ahead if you do. If you are prone to them, you can ask the chemist for anti-viral treatment in the lead up to your appointment.

- Have no dental appointments for 7 days.
- Are not traveling on a long-haul flight for at least 10 days after your appointment.
DOUBLE CHIN INJECTIONS
This is a revolutionary new treatment which was approved for use in Australia in February 2017. It has been used overseas over the last few years. Due to strict advertising guidelines by the Therapeutic Goods Association, we are not allowed to use the brand name. It is known as two different names but is the same product both overseas and in Australia.
The product is a prescription only medicine which is safe and effective in the removal of moderate to severe fat below the chin (submental fat). It aims to improve the appearance and profile of patients and help to contour the jawline. Injections with a small needle are made into the fatty tissue. The procedure takes approximately 10-15 minutes. The area may be numbed beforehand, use a topical anaesthetic cream and icing the area.
Rare side effects include temporary problems with facial muscles eg weak smile and problems swallowing (due to nerve injury). However, these should resolve within a few days to 2 months at longest. Other side effects may include pain and discomfort, bruising, swelling and redness. The swelling may persist for up to 4-6 weeks after the treatment while the acid is working to dissolve the fat. treatment may include temporary numbness to the skin under the chin and areas of hardness to the injected area.
A minimum of 2 treatments is required and sessions must be spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Further treatments if required can be purchased on a case by case basis. Up to 6 treatments may be required.
Prices start from $2500 for 2 treatments.

Rejuvenation Treatment with Botox Kalgoorlie
As we age, we lose a lot of the collagen that makes our skin look young and plump. The effect is that more lines and wrinkles appear and the inevitable signs of ageing set in. Although this is a natural process, it affects some people more than others and it is a process that can be slowed or reversed with the use of wrinkle relaxers.
Wrinkles mainly appear on the face, as crow’s feet around the eyes, worry lines that form on the forehead and frown lines between the eyebrows. They can make us look older and tired, and it’s a look that can be reduced or avoided.
Look Younger with Increased Vitality via Bramis Treatment
Ageing is inevitable but that does not mean we have to look our age. A Bramis treatment that is simple and quick to apply will soon make you look younger, more vital, and you’ll go home with skin that glows.
Dynamic wrinkles result from the repetitive movement of facial muscles. These movements cause the skin to contract and the collagen fibres that are in the skin’s dermis layer to break. When relatively young, the body has a natural ability to restore these collagen fibres but that ability to generate new collagen decreases as we get older. Consequently, even when the facial muscles relax, the wrinkles do not go away. Read More
Wrinkle relaxers are injections that relax these facial muscles so they do not contract and the number and extent of wrinkles are significantly reduced. This gives you a more youthful appearance without the wrinkles that are associated with ageing.
Wrinkle relaxer injections are probably the best known and most popular way to smooth away wrinkles and lines so your appearance is refreshed and you look younger. And part of the reason is because the process is so convenient, effective, affordable and long-lasting.
Our muscle-relaxing injections treat a number of conditions that include:
- frown lines between the eyebrows
- worry lines across the forehead
- crow’s feet around the eyes
- lip lines.
We can also help with the contouring of the jaw line, facial slimming and a general improvement in your facial appearance and fullness.
A More Youthful Appearance with No Inconvenience
Our cosmetic procedures, including the Botox treatment, are designed to give you an appearance that is younger, more vital and natural. Treatment is quick, simple, has no adverse reactions and is relatively painless with long-lasting effects. Anti-wrinkle injections are usually completed within a thirty-minute appointment and will typically last for two to four months before repeat treatment is needed. You should notice an improvement within a few days as the muscles start to relax and the treatment will be fully effective within two weeks.
Repeat treatments are needed because the wrinkle relaxers are gradually absorbed by your body. However, further treatments may have a longer effect since the targeted muscles will respond less to the originating movements and so are less likely to cause wrinkles.
We can combine wrinkle-relaxing injections with dermal fillers and various other forms of treatment that will give you the look you want. Overall, you will improve the texture and quality of your skin, which will make you feel and look younger and more refreshed.
Summary
As a Bramis Facial Rejuvenation Clinic, Goldfields Family Dental offer a variety of treatments to reverse signs of aging and refresh the skin.
Wrinkle relaxers are often used to treat wrinkles such as crows’ feet, frown lines and forehead lines. To do this, a special muscle-relaxant solution is injected into the skin. This procedure has been used for decades due to its safety and positive results. The result is a fresher, younger-looking face. Wrinkle relaxers typically last between three or four months, but they can last up to six months.
Dermal fillers are used to plump up the skin, especially in the cheeks and on deeper creases. This is administered via an injection into the desired area. The substance injected attracts and holds water, helping the skin to stay hydrated. It also aids skin elasticity by combining with elastin and collagen. In addition to making skin fuller and filling wrinkles, dermal fillers can be used to achieve non-surgical rhinoplasty and tear trough treatments.
Double chin injections can be used to reduce (submental) fat from the chin area. The treatment is done via a small injection, taking just ten to fifteen minutes. It aims to contour the jawline and improve the patient’s profile. It is a revolutionary treatment that is used both in Australia and in other nations around the world.
