Fine lines and wrinkles are a normal, natural part of how skin changes with age, and appear most often on the face.
Fine lines are thin, shallow lines on the skin’s surface, while wrinkles are deeper and may be more pronounced. Both are largely due to the gradual, natural loss of collagen and elasticity that occurs as we age.
Other factors that can contribute to fine lines and wrinkles include sun exposure, smoking, and repetitive facial expressions.
Ageing skin is normal and does not need to be “fixed.” For people who choose to address the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, everyday measures can help — such as wearing sunscreen, not smoking, and using topical ingredients that support collagen production — and a range of clinical treatments may reduce their appearance.
What treatment options are available for fine lines & wrinkles at MedAesthetics?
We offer a range of skin treatments across our Perth clinics. Which, if any, is appropriate depends on your individual skin, anatomy and goals, and is determined at a consultation.
- Lines & Wrinkles Treatment: relaxes the muscles that cause wrinkles.
- Bio-Remodelling Treatment: a revolutionary new approach to rejuvenating skin cells and treating skin laxity by triggering a ‘bio-remodelling’ response.
- Bio-Stimulating Treatment: used to replace lost volume and lift areas of the face that have dropped or deflated over time, and to create lift, but in a slightly different way. Just like injectable treatments, Collagen Bio-Stimulators are a watery compound made up of a TGA approved, prescription-only collagen-stimulating ingredient which triggers natural collagen production within the skin it is placed in.
- Venus Viva MD: a non-surgical skin-resurfacing treatment that uses radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen production and may improve the skin’s texture and tone. It is typically performed as a series of sessions and may reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, scars and other skin concerns. Suitability, number of sessions and results develop over time and vary between individuals.
- Laser Genesis: a non-surgical laser treatment that heats the skin to stimulate collagen production and may improve skin texture and tone. It may reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, as well as other concerns such as acne scarring and uneven pigmentation. Results develop over time and vary between individuals.
- Forever Young BBL: also known as BroadBand Light therapy, a non-surgical light-based treatment that delivers light energy to the deeper layers of the skin to stimulate collagen production and may reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and other skin concerns. Results develop over time and vary between individuals.
Individual results vary, and all cosmetic procedures carry risks and possible side effects — these are discussed with you at your consultation.
