The answer

Injections and other medical procedures used for body beautification are permissible if they are for removing harm or treating a disfiguring defect; otherwise, they are not. It is not permissible to remove wrinkles by surgery or injection unless it is a medical condition, provided there is no risk of harm. If your friend's intention is to remove harm or treat a disfiguring defect, there is no harm in assisting her. However, if her purpose is merely improvement and beautification, then it is not permissible to assist her.
