Wrinkles

Wrinkles are a natural part of ageing, but they often appear earlier than expected due to stress, sun exposure, dehydration or repeated facial movements. Fine lines may start around the eyes or mouth, gradually deepening into more visible folds.

What Are Wrinkles?

Wrinkles are lines and creases that form when the skin loses its firmness and flexibility. As collagen and elastin break down over time, the skin becomes thinner and drier, making it more prone to creasing.

They can appear in different areas including the forehead, between the brows, around the eyes, mouth, neck and even the underarms.

Types of Wrinkles

Wrinkles vary in depth, cause and location. Common types include:

  • Dynamic wrinkles: Caused by repeated facial expressions like smiling or frowning
  • Static wrinkles: Visible even when the face is at rest, often deepened by ageing or sun damage
  • Fine lines: Shallow, early-stage wrinkles typically around the eyes and mouth
  • Neck lines: Horizontal lines and creases that form across the neck
  • Crepey skin: Wrinkled, paper-like texture often due to dehydration or loss of elasticity
  • Underarm lines: Often overlooked, these can appear from frequent shaving, dryness or skin laxity

What Causes Wrinkles?

Wrinkles form as a result of several internal and external factors, including:

  • Natural ageing: Skin produces less collagen and elastin with age
  • Sun exposure: UV rays accelerate collagen breakdown
  • Dehydration: Lack of moisture makes fine lines more visible
  • Facial movements: Smiling, frowning or squinting can deepen lines over time
  • Sleep positions: Constant pressure on certain areas can lead to sleep lines
  • Lifestyle factors: Smoking, stress and poor skincare habits contribute to premature ageing

Available Treatments

Botulinum Toxin – Xeomin (Wrinkles)

Botulinum Toxin (Xeomin) is a treatment that targets dynamic wrinkles caused by repeated facial movements, such as frown lines, forehead creases, and crow’s feet. By relaxing the muscles underneath, it smooths the skin’s surface for a softer, more youthful look without affecting natural facial expressions.

Dermal Fillers – Juvederm / Belotero (Wrinkles)

Dermal fillers such as Juvederm and Belotero are hyaluronic acid-based treatments that help smooth static wrinkles and restore lost volume in the skin. Unlike botulinum toxin, which relaxes muscles, fillers work by filling in deeper lines and creases to create a more youthful, hydrated, and even skin surface.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are wrinkles permanent?

Some deeper wrinkles may not disappear completely, but they can be significantly softened and improved with consistent treatment.

It is never too early to start. Many begin preventive care in their late 20s or 30s to slow visible ageing.

Yes. Hydrated skin appears plumper and smoother, making fine lines less noticeable.

Not always. Some wrinkles can be improved with skin tightening, collagen-stimulating facials or hydration-based treatments.

It depends on the treatment. Some provide immediate glow and smoothness, while others build long-term collagen support over a series of sessions.
