Fine lines and wrinkles may be caused by natural skin ageing, repeated facial movement, collagen and elastin changes, sun exposure, smoking, dryness, genetics, inflammation and hormonal changes.

Fine lines are usually shallower and may be linked with dehydration, early collagen change or movement. Wrinkles are often deeper or more established. Many people have a mixture of both.

Dynamic wrinkles appear mainly when the face moves, such as smiling or frowning. Static wrinkles are visible even when the face is relaxed and may be linked with longer-term collagen, texture or sun-related change.

Complete wrinkle removal is not a realistic or safe promise. Treatment aims to soften selected lines, improve skin quality and support a fresher appearance. Results vary.

Treatment may include SPF and skincare planning, prescription-led skincare review, chemical peels, microneedling, skin boosters, polynucleotides, laser review or other medical-aesthetic options where suitable.

Microneedling may help selected fine-line and texture concerns by supporting collagen remodelling. It is usually course-based and may not be the best option for every type of wrinkle.

Skin boosters may be discussed for selected patients with dryness, crepey texture or reduced skin quality. They are not the same as traditional fillers and suitability depends on assessment.

Polynucleotides may be considered as a regenerative skin-quality treatment for selected patients. They are usually discussed in relation to hydration, texture, under-eye quality or overall skin support, depending on suitability.

Chemical peels may help selected texture, dullness and superficial fine-line concerns, but peel strength, skin tone, sensitivity, preparation and aftercare are important.

Laser or light-based treatment may be considered for selected texture, pigmentation and skin-quality concerns. Suitability depends on skin type, pigment risk, downtime tolerance and treatment goals.

This depends on the method. Some treatments have early visible effects, while collagen-supporting and skin-quality treatments often build gradually over weeks to months.

Many treatments can be used safely with careful planning, but pigmentation risk must be considered. Treatment choice, preparation, settings, aftercare and sun protection are especially important.

The cost depends on the treatment route recommended after assessment, such as skincare review, peels, microneedling, skin boosters, polynucleotides, laser review or other options. Please check the full pricing page for detailed and updated pricing.

Skin ageing continues over time. Lines may soften with treatment, but maintenance, sun protection and ongoing skincare are usually needed to support longer-term results.
