What causes fine lines and wrinkles?
As we age, the skin gradually produces less collagen and elastin, the proteins that help keep it firm and supple. The skin also becomes thinner and holds less moisture. Over time, this can lead to fine lines, creasing and changes in texture.
Sun exposure is one of the biggest contributing factors, along with smoking, dehydration, sleep position and genetics. Because lines form for different reasons and at different depths, they don’t all respond to the same approach, which is why an assessment always comes first.
Common types of lines
Fine surface lines
Lines that appear at rest
Lines that appear with expression
Sun-related lines and crepey texture
Many people have more than one type at the same time.
Treatment options we may discuss
Your plan depends on the type and depth of your lines, your skin type and condition, and your history. Options may include:
Skin needling: Often considered for fine lines and uneven texture. It prompts the skin’s natural wound-healing response, and is usually recommended as a course.
Chemical peels: May be considered for fine surface lines, dullness and sun-related texture. Peel type and strength are chosen carefully for your skin.
Clinician-selected skincare: Home skincare is often a key part of the plan, both to prepare the skin before treatment and to support it afterwards.
Daily sun protection: UV exposure is one of the main contributors to skin ageing, so daily broad-spectrum SPF is part of every plan.
Some treatment options can only be discussed in person, after a full assessment.
Realistic expectations
Treatment for fine lines and texture is gradual, and changes develop over weeks to months. Most plans involve a course of treatments alongside consistent home care.
Skin continues to change with age, sun exposure and lifestyle, so ongoing care is usually needed. Treatment may help improve the appearance of fine lines, but it won’t stop the natural ageing process. Individual results vary.
Every treatment carries risks. These are explained on each treatment page and discussed in full at your consultation.
Fine lines and wrinkles FAQs
-
Fine lines and wrinkles can’t be removed completely. Treatment may help improve their appearance over time, and how much change is possible depends on the type and depth of the lines and your skin. Individual results vary.
-
There’s no single best treatment, because lines form for different reasons and at different depths. Skin needling and chemical peels are often considered for fine lines and texture, alongside clinician-selected skincare and daily SPF. Your options are discussed after a skin assessment.
-
Skin needling may help improve the appearance of fine lines and skin texture. It’s generally recommended as a course of 3 to 6 sessions, 4 to 6 weeks apart, and changes develop gradually. Results vary between individuals.
-
Daily broad-spectrum sun protection is the most important step. A consistent skincare routine suited to your skin also plays a role. Areti can recommend products as part of your plan.
