As we age, our skin naturally changes. Sun exposure, the ageing process, and years of repeated facial expressions can all contribute to the fine lines and wrinkles that appear on the face over time. At Face Studio Clinic, we help patients understand what’s causing their concerns and talk through the full range of options available during a one-to-one consultation.

What causes facial lines and wrinkles?

A few common factors:

  • Sun exposure — UV damage breaks down collagen and elastin, the proteins that keep skin firm.
  • Natural ageing — skin gradually produces less collagen, making it thinner and less elastic.
  • Repeated facial expressions — movements like frowning, squinting, or smiling create folds that, over time, can become more visible even at rest.
  • Lifestyle factors — smoking, dehydration, and habits like drinking through a straw can accelerate lines around the mouth.

Common concerns our patients ask about

Every consultation is different, but these are the areas people most often want to talk through with our team:

  • Frown lines — the vertical lines between the eyebrows.
  • Forehead lines — horizontal lines that appear when raising the eyebrows.
  • Crow’s feet — lines at the outer corners of the eyes, more visible when smiling.
  • Lip lines — fine vertical lines around the mouth and top lip.
  • Eyebrow position — some patients ask about options for a more lifted, open eye area.
  • Bunny lines — fine wrinkles across the nose, often noticeable when scrunching the nose.
  • Neck bands — vertical bands visible down the sides of the neck.
  • Chin dimpling — an uneven, bumpy texture across the chin, sometimes called “pebble chin.”
  • Gummy smile — where more gum tissue is visible than you’d like when smiling.
  • Excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) — most often affecting the underarms, palms, feet, or scalp.

If any of these sound familiar, the best next step is a consultation. Our clinicians will assess your skin and concerns in person and talk you through whether an anti-wrinkle treatment is suitable for you

FAQs

When will I see the results of my wrinkle correction treatment?

It can take between 3-14 days for the treatment to take full effect.

Are there any side effects of anti-wrinkle treatment?

Side effects are minimal but may include minor redness which will go down in a few hours after treatment and possible bruising which may take a few days to fully resolve.

What will happen at my consultation?

At Face Studio Clinic, you will have a confidential consultation before any treatment. This includes discussing your concerned areas, any expectations, side effects and the treatment process. A medical history will be taken to ensure safe and appropriate treatment.

What should I do before my treatment?

  • All make-up will need to be removed before treatment.
  • Alcohol, aspirin, ibuprofen, blood thinners and a range of dietary supplements including; St. Johns Wort, fish oils, Gingko Biloba, and vitamins C and E may all contribute to bruising and are best avoided 24 hours before treatment.
  • If you are prescribed blood thinners (anti-coagulants), please continue on these and treatment will need to be assessed on individual merits to ensure safety.
  • Treatment cannot be administered if there is an active skin infection, including acne or cold sores or if you are unwell- including colds, coughs, sore throats, viral illnesses or other illnesses.

What should I avoid after my treatment?

  • Do not touch the treated area(s) for 3-4 hours as you may introduce bacteria and cause an infection.
  • Remain upright for 3-4 hours.
  • Do not exercise on the day of treatment.
  • Avoid sun beds, saunas, steam rooms and hot tubs for 24 hours.
  • No facials/chemical skin peels or laser resurfacing treatment for 7 days.
  • Avoid makeup for 12 hours.

Is it painful?

A fine needle is used, and most patients describe any discomfort as brief and minor. Your prescriber can talk you through what to expect for your specific treatment area.

Will anti-wrinkle treatment make me look frozen or unnatural?

No — when carried out by an experienced, qualified clinician, anti-wrinkle treatment is designed to soften lines while keeping your natural expression intact. We use carefully judged, conservative dosing rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, so you can still frown, smile, and raise your eyebrows naturally — you’ll simply notice fewer lines when you do. This is exactly what we talk through at your consultation, so you know what result to expect before you go ahead.
