Fine Lines & Wrinkles
There is a real clinical distinction here. Lines that appear when you move are muscle-driven; lines visible at rest are usually about volume and skin quality. They are treated with different things, and mixing the two up is why some people feel their treatment did nothing.
What people usually notice
- Horizontal forehead lines when you raise your brows
- Lines at the outer eye when you smile
- A vertical line between the brows visible at rest
- Fine crepiness on the cheeks in bright light
What commonly contributes
- Repeated facial movement over years
- Cumulative sun exposure
- Gradual collagen and volume loss with age
- Smoking, sleep and hydration, all of which show over time
This page describes what is common, not what is true of you. Only an examination can say which of these applies.
What a doctor may consider
Which of these suits you — and whether any of them is needed at all — is decided at the consultation, not from this page.
What the consultation settles
A good consultation will tell you which of your lines are worth treating now and which are not yet doing anything a treatment would change.
