Fine Lines & Wrinkles
Understanding Fine Lines & Wrinkles
Fine lines and wrinkles are common skin concerns associated with both intrinsic ageing and external environmental exposure. Fine lines are typically shallow creases that appear on the surface of the skin, while wrinkles are deeper folds that develop as the skin’s structural support diminishes over time.
The dermis contains collagen and elastin fibres responsible for skin firmness, strength and elasticity. As part of the natural ageing process, collagen production slows and existing fibres gradually degrade. External factors such as ultraviolet (UV) radiation, pollution, oxidative stress and repetitive facial movements can accelerate this process. Reduced hydration levels and impairment of the skin barrier may further accentuate the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
These changes commonly affect areas of frequent movement, including the forehead, around the eyes, mouth and cheeks. A professional skin assessment is essential to identify contributing factors and guide appropriate management options.
At BLANC Skin in Perth, fine lines and wrinkles are assessed using an individualised, evidence-based approach by our dermal therapists and cosmetic nurses.
Professional Treatments
At BLANC Skin, we offer a range of professional skin treatments that may be considered as part of a comprehensive approach to managing fine lines and wrinkles. These treatments are selected to support collagen stimulation, skin renewal and overall skin quality. Suitability is determined during a required consultation.
Note: All treatments carry potential risks. These will be discussed in detail during your consultation to determine suitability for your individual needs. Our treatments are performed by qualified and trained nurses who will explain expected recovery times, possible side effects and any aftercare required so you know what to expect.
RECOMMENDED TREATMENTS FOR FINE LINES & WRINKLES
Following the latest TGA guidelines, we are unable to promote specific cosmetic treatments. However, our full treatment offering remains available. Changes in skin quality, collagen production and facial support can contribute to the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles over time.
To support your individual skin concerns and overall skin health, we recommend booking a consultation with one of our experienced nurses. During this consultation, we can discuss suitable options, provide further information and create a personalised treatment plan tailored to your individual needs.
Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy delivered into the deeper layers of the skin. This technology is used to support collagen remodelling and improve skin firmness through controlled thermal stimulation at depth.
For fine lines and wrinkles, Morpheus8 may be considered where both surface texture changes and underlying skin laxity contribute to the appearance of ageing.
Clinical procedures carry risks and results vary.
Rejuran is used to support overall skin quality by targeting the dermal environment. Treatments focus on improving skin texture, elasticity and resilience, which may assist in softening the appearance of fine lines associated with ageing and environmental stress.
This approach is commonly considered for individuals experiencing early signs of ageing, reduced skin quality or fine surface lines.
Clinical procedures carry risks and results vary.
Skin needling, also known as microneedling, uses fine, controlled needles to create micro-channels in the skin. This process stimulates the skin’s natural wound-healing response, encouraging collagen and elastin production.
For fine lines and wrinkles, skin needling may be used to improve skin texture and support gradual skin renewal, particularly where lines are mild to moderate in appearance.
Clinical procedures carry risks and results vary.
Nano fractional technology creates microscopic treatment zones on the surface of the skin to encourage epidermal renewal with minimal downtime. This approach focuses on refining skin texture and softening the appearance of early fine lines.
Nano fractional treatments are often selected for concerns relating to superficial fine lines, uneven texture and dull skin tone.
Clinical procedures carry risks and results vary.
Trichloroacetic acid (TCA) peels are a form of corrective chemical peel designed to accelerate skin cell turnover and support regeneration of the outer skin layers. By removing damaged surface cells, chemical peels may help improve skin texture and soften the appearance of fine lines.
Peel depth and suitability are assessed during consultation to ensure safe and appropriate outcomes.
Clinical procedures carry risks and results vary.
Biologique Recherche facials are customised, clinical-grade treatments focused on skin reconditioning, hydration and barrier support. These facials are often incorporated into fine line management where dehydration or barrier impairment contributes to the appearance of surface lines.
They may also be used alongside more advanced treatments as part of a broader skin management plan.
Clinical procedures carry risks and results vary.
LED light therapy uses specific wavelengths of light to support cellular activity within the skin. In the management of fine lines, LED therapy is commonly used to assist skin recovery, support collagen-producing cells and promote overall skin health.
LED light therapy is often used as an adjunct to other professional treatments.
Clinical procedures carry risks and results vary.
Supportive Skincare Ingredients
Professional treatments are best supported by a tailored skincare routine designed to maintain skin health and support long-term outcomes.
Antioxidants (e.g. Vitamin C)
Help protect the skin from oxidative stress caused by environmental exposure and support skin resilience.
Peptides
Support skin structure by signalling pathways involved in collagen support and repair.
Hyaluronic Acid
A hydration-binding ingredient that attracts and retains moisture, helping to temporarily soften the appearance of fine lines.
Ceramides & Barrier-Supporting Ingredients
Support the skin’s protective barrier, reduce moisture loss and improve skin comfort and smoothness.
Elasticity-Supporting Formulations
May assist in maintaining skin suppleness when used consistently as part of a prescribed routine.
Broad-Spectrum Sunscreens (UV Filters)
Daily sun protection is essential, as UV exposure is a leading contributor to premature skin ageing and wrinkle formation.
FAQs About Fine Lines & Wrinkles
Fine lines and wrinkles develop due to a combination of natural ageing, reduced collagen and elastin production, sun exposure, environmental stress and repetitive facial movements.
Fine lines are shallow surface creases, while wrinkles are deeper folds that develop as the skin loses structural support over time.
A range of professional treatments may be used to support the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, depending on individual skin concerns.
Clinical procedures carry risks and results vary.
Not all treatments are suitable for all individuals. A consultation with a qualified nurse is required to determine appropriate options and discuss potential risks.
Skincare can support hydration and skin health; however, established wrinkles may require professional treatments to address deeper structural changes.
Yes. UV exposure is a major contributor to premature skin ageing and wrinkle formation. Daily sun protection is strongly recommended.
