From a young age, you may notice wrinkles appearing when you smile or frown. These are known as dynamic wrinkles. They’re only visible when you move your face and quickly disappear.

Dynamic wrinkles animate our faces and help us to express how we’re feeling. They can be smoothed out by anti-wrinkle injections, but we don’t recommend erasing them entirely. Some movement is essential. Otherwise, your face could appear frozen and unnatural.

Static lines and wrinkles

Over time, our skin loses its ability to bounce back, and dynamic lines can turn into static wrinkles. Static wrinkles remain visible even when your facial muscles are relaxed.

Static wrinkles are common on the forehead, between the eyes and around the mouth. As we age, they can become deeper and more challenging to treat, so it’s always best to act early.

A good skincare regime can help to diminish fine lines, while anti-ageing treatments such as Profhilo can dramatically reduce them.

Treating deep wrinkles

To tackle deep lines, we recommend combining two of our most popular treatments. Dermal fillers and anti-wrinkle injections are great treatments individually, and they can be used together for outstanding results.

Anti-wrinkle injections relax your facial muscles and noticeably reduce lines. They’re highly effective at treating dynamic wrinkles and preventing static wrinkles.

Meanwhile, dermal fillers are fantastic for filling deep-set lines. Using high-quality hyaluronic acid injections, we can restore lost volume and plump out lines and wrinkles.

Anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers are FDA approved and very safe in the hands of a qualified practitioner. When they’re combined, you can expect the results of your treatment to last for 6–18 months.

In some instances, it’s possible to treat deep lines with dermal fillers alone. Dr. Jackie Bracken will be able to recommend the best treatment plan for you following your complimentary skin assessment.

Preventing static lines

You can prevent facial lines of all shapes and sizes by enjoying a healthy lifestyle and protecting your skin from UV rays. It’s hard to outrun the ageing process and genetics, but a balanced diet and a good skincare regime can do wonders for your skin.

Surprisingly, a major cause of static lines can be your sleeping position. If you lay on your front or side, for example, you could be creasing your skin for extended periods. If you can, try sleeping on your back.

We offer a wide range of treatments that prevent the signs of ageing. Profhilo is a popular injectable that targets the whole face, reducing lines and restoring a youthful glow.
