Wrinkle Concerns

An educational guide to understanding facial muscle activity and how it can be managed to prevent and reduce wrinkles over time


As we age, our skin begins to reflect the repetitive movements of the muscles underneath. Over time, these repeated expressions contribute to the formation of fine lines and creases.

Book a consultation with us today to help soften the appearance of these lines and support a more refreshed appearance.

Key Areas of Concern

  • Forehead

    Lines that run horizontally across the forehead often appear due to repeated raising of the eyebrows. Relaxing the muscle in this area can help soften existing lines and reduce further creasing.

    Key benefits: Smoother skin, preventive care, overall softening of the upper face.

  • Frown Lines

    Vertical lines between the eyebrows commonly called "11s" are typically caused by frowning or concentrating. Relaxation in this area can help reduce their appearance and support a more relaxed expression.

    Key benefits: Less harshness in resting expression, prevention of deeper static lines.

  • Crows Feet

    These lines develop due to smiling, squinting, and ageing. They can become more pronounced over time. Treating this area can reduce their visibility and help refresh the eye area.


    Key benefits: Softened expression around the eyes, refreshed appearance.

  • Bunny Lines

    Small horizontal lines on the nose bridge often appear from scrunching or laughing. Relaxation in this area helps soften their appearance.

    Key benefits: Smooths the upper nose area and balances facial movement.

  • Gummy Smile

    When the upper lip lifts higher than desired when smiling, relaxation of the lifting muscle can help achieve better proportion between teeth, lips, and gums.

    Key benefits: A more balanced, natural smile.

  • Upper Lip Lines

    Small vertical lines around the mouth can appear due to repetitive movement or ageing. Relaxation in this area can help smooth these lines and subtly adjust lip shape.

    Key benefits: Softer lines, more visible upper lip, improved symmetry.

  • Chin Dimple

    The chin area may show dimpling or a deep crease, particularly during movement. Targeting the active muscle here can soften the appearance and support facial harmony.

    Key benefits: Reduced chin texture and smoothing of the lower face.

  • Jaw Clenching

    Some individuals experience discomfort or bulkiness in the lower face due to teeth grinding or habitual clenching. Relaxing the jaw muscle can help ease this and may also contribute to a more tapered lower face.

    Key benefits: Tension relief, jaw pain reduction, softened jawline.

  • Platysmal Bands

    Vertical bands that appear in the neck with age or facial expression can contribute to a heavy or pulled-down appearance of the lower face. Targeted relaxation can help smooth the neck and support lift.

    Key benefits: Smoother neck profile, improved lower face contour.

  • Trapezius Treatment

    Muscle relaxation for the trapezius (shoulder/neck area) may help with posture, discomfort, and contouring. 

  • Hayfever Support

     A novel approach aimed at supporting individuals with hayfever-related symptoms.

FAQs

  •  These treatments involve the temporary relaxation of specific facial muscles to soften the appearance of fine lines and help reduce the formation of new ones caused by repetitive movement.

  •  Muscle activity beneath the skin creates dynamic lines over time. By temporarily reducing that muscle movement, the skin appears smoother, and creasing is reduced.

  • Common areas include the forehead, frown lines between the brows, lines around the eyes, nose scrunch lines, chin dimpling, jaw clenching, and downturned corners of the mouth. Your practitioner will assess your individual needs.

  • The treatment itself is usually quite quick — around 10–15 minutes — but your full appointment may take longer to allow for a proper consultation and assessment.

  • You may begin to notice softening in a few days, with full results developing over 1–2 weeks.

  • The effect typically lasts around 3–4 months, though this can vary. Regular reviews help tailor the timing for maintenance.

  • Most clients describe the sensation as a small pinch. Numbing techniques like ice or topical creams may be used to enhance comfort if needed.

  • Your practitioner will assess your facial anatomy, discuss your concerns, and explain the treatment process, including risks, limitations, and expected outcomes. This is also your chance to ask questions.

  • Yes. You may be advised to avoid alcohol, certain supplements, or medications that increase the risk of bruising. This will be covered during your consultation.

  • Not always. It may not be appropriate for people who are pregnant, breastfeeding, have certain neurological conditions, or allergies. A consultation is required to determine suitability.

  • Common effects include temporary swelling, redness, or mild bruising. Your practitioner will discuss potential risks during your consultation.

  • Yes, in some cases it may be combined with other facial treatments such as skin therapies or volume support. This is something your practitioner will discuss based on your needs.

Volume Concerns

An educational guide to understanding the influence of fat pad movement and bone structure on facial volume and harmony.

As we age, changes beneath the surface of our skin begin to show. As the natural volume that gives our face its shape and softness starts to diminish, this can lead to hollowing, flattening of the mid-face, deeper lines, and less facial definition overall.

Volume restoration treatments work by supporting and replacing lost structure, helping bring back balance and a refreshed appearance.

Key Areas of Concern

  • Lips

    The lips often change with time by losing volume, definition, and balance. Supporting the lips with volume restoration can improve symmetry, soften fine lines, and bring back structure to the lip border.
     Key benefits: Balanced proportions, improved lip shape, subtle plumping, softened surrounding lines.

  • Cheeks

    Volume loss in the cheeks can cause the mid-face to appear flat or heavy. Supporting this area helps restore contour, enhance facial definition, and can have a lifting effect on the lower face.
     Key benefits: Restored cheek structure, softened nasolabial folds, youthful fullness.

  • Tear Trough

    Hollowing under the eyes can lead to a tired or aged appearance. Supporting the transition between the lower eyelid and cheek can help you appear more rested.
     Key benefits: Refreshed under-eye area, smoother contours, reduced shadowing.

  • Chin

     A short or recessed chin can throw off facial balance, especially in profile. Supporting this area can help refine proportions and create harmony with the rest of the face.
     Key benefits: Improved facial balance, enhanced profile, softened chin creases.

  • Marionette Lines

    These lines, running from the corners of the mouth toward the chin, can deepen with age and contribute to a downturned appearance. Supporting this area can help soften shadows and improve facial flow.
     Key benefits: Reduced lower face heaviness, brighter expression, smoother chin-to-mouth transition.

  • Nasolabial Folds

     Smile lines naturally deepen as we age due to movement and mid-face volume loss. Supporting this area helps smooth the transition between the nose and mouth.
     Key benefits: Softened creases, improved facial harmony, more rested appearance.

  • Jawline

     The jawline can lose definition over time, especially as volume shifts downward. Supporting this area can help create more distinction between the face and neck.
     Key benefits: Enhanced definition, improved symmetry, sharper lower face profile.

Volume Concerns FAQs

  • Over time, our face loses volume due to ageing, leading to hollowing, sagging, or flattening. Volume restoration treatments are used to support facial structure and harmony.

  • Targeted volume is added in areas where bone, fat, or soft tissue has diminished. This helps reframe the face, smooth transitions, and support youthful contours.

  • Common areas include the lips, cheeks, chin, jawline, under-eye area, and lines around the mouth (such as smile lines and marionette lines). Each treatment is tailored to your facial structure.

  • Duration varies depending on the product used, area treated, and individual metabolism. Results often last between 6–18 months.

  • You’ll usually see changes immediately, though mild swelling is common. Final results settle within 1–2 weeks.

  • Mild discomfort may occur. Many products contain local anaesthetic and numbing techniques are available if required.

  • Your practitioner will assess your facial proportions, discuss your goals, and create a tailored plan. You’ll also go through any potential risks or limitations of treatment.

  • Yes. You may be asked to avoid alcohol, blood-thinning medications or supplements, and to disclose any allergies or medical conditions before treatment.

  • Not everyone. It may not be suitable for those who are pregnant, breastfeeding, have certain medical conditions, or allergies. A consultation is needed to assess suitability.

  • Temporary swelling, bruising, or tenderness may occur. All risks will be explained thoroughly before treatment.

  • Yes, in many cases volume restoration can be part of a larger facial treatment plan. Your practitioner can advise on appropriate combinations based on your goals.

  • Aftercare might include avoiding strenuous activity, extreme heat, or pressure to the area for the first 24–48 hours. Your practitioner will provide detailed instructions.
