Precision aesthetic injectables for natural rejuvenation and a beautifully refreshed appearance.
Discover the power of non-surgical rejuvenation. Anti-wrinkle treatments offer an exceptional way to smooth expression lines, soften dynamic creases, and reveal a beautifully refreshed appearance. At Carleton Cosmetic, we focus on advanced, precise techniques that honour your unique anatomy—delivering elegant, natural-looking results that are never frozen.
Directed by our owner and lead physician, Dr Robert Jones, our clinic utilises premium Botulinum Toxin Type A. This prescription-only treatment gently relaxes targeted facial muscles to soften signs of ageing, such as frown lines, forehead creases, and crow’s feet.
Because your face is entirely unique, your treatment plan is bespoke. To perfectly balance and contour your features, we may also suggest pairing your treatment with tailored dermal fillers to beautifully restore lost volume.

There are many commercial brands of Botulinum Toxin available in today’s market, all of which are nearly identical in composition and action. They include Nabota/Nuceiva/Juveau and Botulax from Korea, Botox from the USA, Xeomin/Bocouture from Germany and Dysport from the UK.
At Carleton Cosmetic we are fortunate to be able to provide and source the finest Korean products, direct from the manufacturers, despite not yet being generally available in New Zealand. Other brands can be used with prior notice request but will be subject to specialist order and higher cost.
The full effect of the Btx is achieved after 3 weeks preceding treatment and then there is a gradual return of muscle movement over the next 2–3-month period. There is no hard and fast rule for how quickly movement returns, since the regrowth of nerve endings is directly correlated to each individual patient’s metabolism and prevailing lifestyle.
Most patients renew their “normal” Botulax treatment at around 3 months and for those electing for “Nabota” they can expect at least a 50% increase in duration of action.
Frown lines between the eyes, (the glabella), is the most common area for anti-wrinkle treatments. Crow’s feet and forehead lines are the next most popular and Btx is also used to great effect in the lower face to correct gummy smiles, chin and marionette lines as well as prominent Platysmal bands in the neck.
Btx takes 5-10 days to begin activation and is at its maximum effect after three weeks. It is normal to experience some asymmetry during the first 2 weeks, and any corrections are not carried out until the period after this.
In some cases, when someone is having their first treatment, we may intentionally slightly under treat and then review after two weeks. This is done to avoid over treating (mostly forehead and crow’s feet) as everyone responds slightly differently, and it is easy to add further product but cannot be “taken away”. Once the correct dose is established, it is recorded and used for subsequent treatments.
Glowry Cosmetic Clinic has Dr Robert Jones primarily responsible for all consultations, diagnostics and treatments. Prior to a first treatment going ahead, we need to be satisfied that all the necessary information has been provided to each patient in order that they might make a fully informed and consented decision as to treatment options.
We are responsible for collecting a comprehensive medical history, to ensure that no contra-indications to the proposed treatment are present. Patients are asked to read and sign a consent form, which will, amongst other information, outline any potential side effects and complications.
To explore whether this treatment aligns with your unique aesthetic goals, book a personal consultation at our boutique clinic in Carleton. Our clinical team will evaluate your facial anatomy, discuss your options with complete transparency, and design an ethical, medically led treatment plan built to restore your natural skin health.
Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers primarily migrate and persist rather than simply dissolving on a predictable 6 to 12-month timeline. While the body’s natural enzymes do break down HA, cross-linking in fillers makes them highly resistant. Consequently, un-dissolved gel deposits can remain trapped and shift under the skin for years.
If you notice lumps, puffiness, or volume where it shouldn’t be (such as above the lip border or under the eyes), the filler needs to be actively corrected:
For more information on correcting and managing migrated HA fillers, consult an experienced medical professional to explore options.
