Fine lines and wrinkles are caused by a combination of repeated facial movement, collagen depletion due to ageing and environmental stressors. At Artisan Aesthetic Clinics, we offer in-depth consultations to assess these concerns and recommend appropriate treatment options. Book a consultation now.
Understanding fine lines and wrinkles
Facial lines and wrinkles are part of the ageing process, typically developing as the skin begins to lose collagen and elastin. This gradual decline in the skin’s structural support reduces its ability to bounce back, making fine lines more likely to appear and deepen over time. Repeated facial movements, such as squinting, frowning and smiling, may also contribute to wrinkle formation.
External influences like prolonged sun exposure, pollution and lifestyle habits like smoking or poor sleep can also negatively impact the skin’s integrity and speed up collagen breakdown.
Common areas of concern
Fine lines and wrinkles can appear on the:
- Forehead
- Between the brows (“frown lines”)
- Outer corners of the eyes (“crow’s feet”)
- Under-eye area
- Corners of the mouth
