Fine Lines & Wrinkle Treatments

Fine lines and wrinkles are a natural part of aging, often appearing as the skin’s collagen and elasticity begin to decline. Whether you’re looking to soften expression lines, rejuvenate tired skin, or restore your glow, we offer advanced, evidence-based treatments tailored to your individual needs.

Our approach is subtle, bespoke, and grounded in medical expertise-helping you look refreshed, confident, and effortlessly natural.

Understanding Fine Lines and Wrinkles

Over time, the skin loses firmness due to a combination of factors- reduced collagen production, repetitive facial expressions, sun exposure, and lifestyle influences.

Dynamic wrinkles form from repeated facial movements (such as frown lines or crow’s feet).

Static lines are visible even when the face is at rest, caused by long-term collagen breakdown and dehydration.

The good news? With modern aesthetic medicine, we can treat both types safely and effectively- helping your skin look smoother, brighter, and healthier.

Our Treatment Options

Here’s a step-by-step overview of how I perform anti-wrinkle injections in my clinic:

1. Anti-Wrinkle Injections-BotoxTM

Anti-wrinkle injections are one of the most effective ways to reduce fine lines caused by facial movement. Using a purified botulinum toxin-BotoxTM-treatment relaxes overactive muscles, softening expression lines and preventing them from deepening further.

Common treatment areas:

    • Frown lines (between the brows)
    • Forehead lines
    • Crow’s feet (around the eyes)
  • Bunny lines (across the nose)
  • Jawline slimming (masseter treatment)
  • Neck bands

Results:

Smoother, more relaxed skin typically appears within 3-10 days, lasting around 3-4 months. Each treatment is tailored to your natural expressions.

 

2. Polynucleotides-PlinestTM

The Next Generation of Skin Regeneration

Polynucleotides are a cutting-edge injectable treatment that regenerates the skin from within. Derived from purified DNA fragments, these bio-stimulating molecules encourage deep tissue repair, hydration, and regeneration.

How they work:

  • Stimulate fibroblasts to boost collagen and elastin
  • Improve skin elasticity, tone, and firmness
  • Repair and protect against oxidative stress
  • Reduce inflammation and promote natural radiance

Treatment areas:

Face, under-eyes, neck, décolletage, and hands.

Results:

After a course of treatments, skin appears healthier, firmer, and more luminous-with continued improvement over the following weeks. Ideal for patients seeking subtle, long-term rejuvenation.

 

3. ProfhiloTM

Deep Hydration. Remarkable Glow.

ProfhiloTM is an award-winning injectable hyaluronic acid treatment that deeply hydrates and remodels the skin. Unlike traditional fillers, ProfhiloTM spreads evenly beneath the surface to stimulate collagen and elastin, improving firmness and elasticity.

Benefits:

  • Intense hydration and smoother texture
  • Improved elasticity and firmness
  • Healthy, luminous glow without altering facial shape

Treatment areas:

Face, neck, décolletage, arms, body, abdomen and hands.

Results:

After two sessions (four weeks apart), the skin looks plumper, firmer, and radiant-with results lasting up to six months.

 

4. Microneedling-SkinPenTM

Collagen Induction for Smoother, Firmer Skin

Microneedling with SkinPenTM is a powerful, minimally invasive treatment designed to naturally boost collagen and elastin production. Using fine sterile needles to create controlled microchannels in the skin, it triggers the body’s natural healing response-revealing fresher, smoother, more youthful-looking skin.

How it works:

  • Stimulates collagen and elastin regeneration
  • Improves texture, fine lines, and scarring
  • Enhances skin tone and reduces enlarged pores
  • Increases product absorption for enhanced results

Treatment areas:

Face, neck, décolletage, body and hands.

Results:

After a short course of treatments, the skin becomes noticeably firmer, more radiant, and even in texture. Microneedling is an excellent standalone treatment or can be combined with other therapies (such as Polynucleotides or ProfhiloTM) for enhanced rejuvenation.

 

5. Dermal Fillers and Skinboosters (Redensity1 and RHA1 by TeoxaneTM)

Redensity 1

Redensity 1 is a next-generation skin-booster designed not to add volume, but to enhance skin quality from within. It features a high-grade hyaluronic acid base complemented by amino acids, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants-all aimed at restoring skin hydration, texture and radiance.

How it works

Small micro-injections are placed into the superficial dermis. The hyaluronic acid acts like a “moisture reservoir”, attracting and retaining water, while the added nutrients stimulate collagen and elastin synthesis and protect the skin from oxidative stress.

Benefits

  • Deep skin hydration that creates a dewy, healthy glow.
  • Improvement in skin texture and firmness; reduction of fine lines and crepey quality.
  • Non-volumising, so natural looking-ideal for early signs of ageing or when you want refreshed skin quality rather than major structural change.

Areas treated

Face, neck, décolletage-and can also work in more delicate zones such as the hands or around the lips (for fine superficial lines).

RHA 1

RHA 1 belongs to Teoxane’s RHA (Resilient Hyaluronic Acid) collection- a filler line engineered to adapt to the dynamic movement of the face. RHA 1 is specifically tailored for fine superficial wrinkles, particularly those caused by repetitive motion (for example “barcode” lines around the mouth).

How it works

This filler uses a mix of non-cross-linked and lightly cross-linked hyaluronic acid of high quality, designed to integrate smoothly into the dermis while preserving flexibility. The goal is to smooth fine dynamic lines while allowing natural facial expression- avoiding the “frozen” look.

Benefits

  • Smoothing of fine-line wrinkles around the mouth, neck or décolletage with minimal bulk.
  • Natural movement is preserved-the RHA technology is designed to stretch and rebound with facial motion.
  • Long-lasting effect for a fine-wrinkle treatment (some studies show meaningful results beyond 9-12 months for lighter treatment zones).

Areas treated

Ideal for fine dynamic lines on the face, neck and décolletage, and especially for perioral (mouth-border) “barcode” lines and vertical lip lines.

Which to choose (or combine)?

  • If your primary concern is skin quality- hydration, tone, subtle texture improvement, early fine lines- then Redensity 1 is a strong starting point.
  • If you have fine dynamic wrinkles (motion-based lines) and would like a filler approach that respects movement, RHA 1 could be the better fit.
  • In many cases, a combined plan can make sense: use Redensity 1 to boost the skin envelope and RHA 1 where defined fine lines persist.

Before & After

Frequently Asked Questions

What treatment is best for fine lines and wrinkles?

The most effective treatment depends on the type of lines you have, your skin quality, and your overall goals.

  • Anti-wrinkle injections (Botox) are ideal for expression lines caused by muscle movement.
  • Polynucleotides (Plinest) and Profhilo improve skin quality, hydration, and elasticity.
  • SkinPen Microneedling stimulates natural collagen for smoother texture and refined pores.
  • Dermal fillers and Skin boosters (RHA 1 and Redensity). Add subtle volume, glow and nutrition.

During your consultation, we will assess your skin and recommend the most suitable treatment or possibly combination of treatments- for natural, long-lasting results.

Yes. Our philosophy is always subtle enhancement, not over-treatment. The aim is to soften lines, improve skin quality and help you look refreshed.

When administered by an experienced medical professional, anti-wrinkle injections are very safe. We use only established, licensed products and follow strict medical protocols. A full consultation and medical assessment is always carried out prior to treatment.

Results typically last 3-4 months, although this can vary between individuals. Regular maintenance treatments help prevent lines from deepening over time.

  • Anti-wrinkle injections: Approximately 3–4 months
  • Profhilo, polynucleotides, Redensity 1, and RHA 1: Gradual improvement over weeks, with results typically lasting several months depending on the product and treatment plan
  • Microneedling: Progressive improvement following a course of treatments
Polynucleotides are skin-regenerating injectables, not fillers. They do not add volume or change facial shape. Instead, they improve skin health by stimulating collagen, enhancing hydration, and repairing damaged tissue- making them ideal for delicate areas such as the under-eyes.
Profhilo is a bio-remodelling treatment made from highly purified hyaluronic acid. It deeply hydrates the skin and improves firmness and elasticity. It’s suitable for patients noticing early signs of ageing, skin laxity, or dullness, and for those wanting natural rejuvenation without volume.

Microneedling is generally well tolerated. A topical numbing cream is applied before treatment to ensure comfort. You may experience mild redness afterwards, similar to light sunburn, which usually settles within 24-48 hours.

For best results, a course of 3-6 treatments spaced several weeks apart is usually recommended. Improvements in skin texture, tone, and firmness continue to develop over time as collagen production increases

Absolutely-combining treatments often provides the best results. For example, anti-wrinkle injections (Botox) can soften expression lines, while Profhilo, polynucleotides, or microneedling improve overall skin quality. Combination treatment plans are carefully tailored during your consultation

Anti-wrinkle injections: Minimal downtime; small bumps or redness usually settle within hours.

Polynucleotides and Profhilo: Mild swelling or tenderness may occur for 24-48 hours.

Microneedling: Redness may last 1-2 days.

Most patients return to normal activities shortly after treatment.

Anti-wrinkle injections (Botox): Results begin within 3-10 days.

Profhilo and polynucleotides: Gradual improvement over several weeks.

Microneedling: Progressive improvement as collagen rebuilds over weeks to months.

Yes. A face-to-face consultation is essential and mandatory before any injectable treatment. This ensures treatments are safe, appropriate, and aligned with your expectations.
