Wrinkles
What is it?
Fine lines and wrinkles can start appearing from your 20s, especially if you have had significant sun exposure. The most common areas to first notice wrinkles are the horizontal lines on the forehead, the vertical lines between your eyebrows in the glabella area and those around your eyes.You may also start noticing wrinkles around your lower face and cheek area and increasing prominence of the nose to mouth lines.
Why does it happen?
One of the biggest accelerators for wrinkles is UV damage. The most helpful thing you can do is to prevent wrinkles by ensuring you wear sunscreen daily and stay away from direct sunlight. Even if you already have wrinkles, this will slow down the ageing process. Lighter skin types have less inbuilt protection from UV damage in the form of melanin so are more prone to getting wrinkles at an earlier age. UV damage not only causes the fine lines on your upper face; it also contributes to volume loss and change in texture/ loss of elasticity of the skin.
Treatment Options
Wrinkle Relaxing Injections
For Wrinkles
Wrinkle Relaxing Injections are an extremely effective treatment at softening and in many cases completely erasing lines in the face, including upper face wrinkles in the forehead, glabella lines and crow's feet.
Fillers
For Wrinkles
We offer a range of fillers to help with nose to mouth lines and corners of the mouth. We often assess your cheeks to see if you have lost any volume there and then can make recommendations specific to your skin.
Skin Boosters and Profhilo
For Wrinkles
For fine lines on the sides of the face and wrinkles on the neck Profhilo can tighten the skin and help. You can do this in combination with other treatments.
Morpheus 8
For Wrinkles
This is radiofrequency with microneedling and can help tighten the skin and shrink fat cells, resulting in a more defined jawline. It is best to do Morpheus 8 before fillers as it can potentially dissolve fillers quicker. It also means you will require less filler and it will sit better when the skin is tighter.
Come in for a consultation to discuss which may be the best option for you.
