Enjoy a Non-Surgical Face Lift with Microtoxin Injections

By Dr. Meg Minasian, Founder of The MW Clinic London

Many patients are looking for a way to refresh their appearance without undergoing invasive procedures or surgery. As a doctor with over 25 years of experience in the medical use of botulinum toxin (BoNT-A), I offer a specialised technique known as Microtoxin—a treatment that delivers a subtle but effective lifting and tightening effect to the face, without altering expression or requiring downtime.

What Is a Non-Surgical Face Lift?

A non-surgical face lift aims to restore definition to the face without scalpels, stitches, or extended recovery time. Microtoxin injections are an excellent option for this approach, using diluted botulinum toxin placed superficially into the skin—not into the muscles—to subtly tighten, brighten and smooth the facial contours

How Microtoxin Lifts the Skin

Microtoxin works by calming overactive oil glands, tightening pore structure, and improving skin elasticity. When carefully injected across key facial zones—such as the cheeks, jawline, forehead, and neck—it provides an overall ‘tightening net’ effect. The result is a firmer, fresher appearance with a noticeable reduction in sagging and surface laxity

Natural-Looking Results

Unlike traditional botulinum toxin injections which target muscle movement to reduce expression lines, Microtoxin enhances the quality and tone of the skin itself. This means you retain full facial expression but benefit from firmer, more radiant skin—ideal for patients seeking a rejuvenated look without dramatic change.

Key Benefits of Microtoxin for Lifting

• Improves skin texture and tightness
• Reduces fine lines and enlarged pores
• Refines the jawline and midface area
• Hydrates and brightens dull skin
• Helps counteract ‘inflammaging’ (inflammatory ageing)

Combination Treatments for Enhanced Results

For those seeking a more comprehensive result, Microtoxin can be safely combined with regenerative therapies such as Broadband Light (BBL) or polynucleotides. These work in synergy to stimulate collagen, even out pigmentation, and further improve skin firmness and hydration.

Who Is This Treatment For?

This non-surgical lifting approach is particularly suited to adults in their 30s to 60s who are starting to see early signs of facial laxity or dullness. It is also suitable for patients who have previously used injectables and want a more subtle, skin-focused option. Every treatment I perform is individually planned to suit your unique skin type and goals.

What to Expect

The treatment involves minimal discomfort and no significant downtime. Results begin to appear within 1–2 weeks and typically last around three to four months. With regular maintenance, the benefits are typically cumulative, improving long-term skin quality and health.

If you're considering a non-surgical face lift, Microtoxin injections could be an ideal solution. I’d be delighted to see you in clinic for a personalised consultation to explore whether this treatment is right for your skin and aesthetic goals.
