Botox Belfast at Woodford Medical

Botox treatment with a doctor who understands how your face really works

When you come to Woodford Medical Belfast for Botox, you are treated entirely by a doctor with more than twenty five years of hands-on injecting experience. Dr Mervyn Patterson was one of the original Allergan injection experts in the United Kingdom and has trained hundreds of other doctors in safe, natural Botox techniques. His calm manner, careful explanations and consistent results are the reasons so many of our patients trust us year after year.

Your appointment is never rushed. You are listened to. And your treatment is based on how your face moves, not a preset formula. If you want to look fresher without looking different, this is exactly what we specialise in.

What your experience with us feels like

Your consultation is a real conversation about what you want to achieve. Many people want to look brighter, less tired around the eyes or simply a little more relaxed in their expression. Others come to our Belfast clinic because of jaw clenching, tension in the neck or migraines. What most patients do not realise at first is how much the lower face and neck influence the overall look of the face.

When the platysma muscle becomes overactive it pulls down from the neck into the lower and mid face, creating early jowls and a heavier look around the jawline. By easing this downward pull the whole face can appear subtly lifted and the jawline looks sharper and more defined. Treating the small muscles at the corner of the mouth can also help the natural lifting muscles work properly again, improving the downturned look that can make you appear tired or unhappy.

The chin itself plays a major part in how expressive and youthful the face appears. When the chin muscle contracts upwards it creates a corrugated, orange peel texture and the feeling that the chin is shrinking with a deepening crease above it. Relaxing this tension smooths the texture, softens the crease and helps the lower face look more open and at ease.

Your lips can benefit in the same way. A lip flip gently relaxes the muscle around the mouth so the upper lip rolls outwards slightly. This reduces vertical lip lines, stops the lip from folding inward on itself and reveals more of the natural pink lip. Many people prefer this to early or excessive filler because it avoids heaviness and distortion while still creating a soft, natural definition.

For many patients these improvements in the lower face and neck are even more important than treating the forehead. Preserving these areas early creates a fresher, more confident facial shape over time.

Natural results tailored specifically to you

Your face moves in patterns that are unique to you. You frown, raise your brows and smile differently from anyone else. Your Botox treatment should respect that. Our aim is always subtlety. You should still look like yourself, just more rested and refreshed. Patients often tell us that friends notice they look well, but no one asks whether they have had anything done.

We have always treated the whole face

For more than twenty five years we have taken a whole-face approach to Botox. Everything works together. It has never felt right to us to treat just the forehead and ignore the very muscles in the lower face and neck that have such a powerful impact on ageing. When these areas are understood and treated correctly, the results look more balanced, harmonious and long lasting.

A doctor-led approach to safety and reassurance

At Woodford Medical Belfast you are treated in an RQIA registered medical clinic. Botox is always administered by a doctor. Your consultation, your treatment and your follow up are all handled with the same clinical attention we bring to every aspect of patient care.

Your medical records are kept with precision, and high resolution digital photography is used to document your starting point and your progress. This helps you clearly see how your results develop over time and ensures continuity and accuracy at every visit.

Why a natural result matters

If someone cannot achieve a natural result for themselves, it becomes difficult to expect they will achieve it for you.

Our philosophy has always been different to other aesthetic injectors. We aim for work that you notice, but no one else does. You should still look like yourself, simply fresher and more at ease. That comes from experience, restraint and an understanding of how the face ages as a whole.
