At a glance
Fine lines and early wrinkles may appear in areas of frequent facial movement — such as around the eyes, mouth, or forehead — and tend to become more pronounced over time as the skin’s natural collagen and elastin levels decline. Some patients also report dryness, creasing, or a loss of firmness in specific areas.
While deeper wrinkles may require surgical intervention, there are several non-surgical options that may help soften the appearance of fine lines and support the skin’s structure naturally.
What Causes Fine Lines?
Common contributors to fine lines and early wrinkles include repeated facial movements, collagen decline, sun exposure, and dehydrated or stressed skin.
Fine lines may be caused or worsened by:
- Repeated facial expressions and muscle movement
- Age-related collagen loss
- Sun exposure and UV damage
- Dehydrated or stressed skin
- Smoking or environmental factors
Understanding the cause helps guide the most appropriate treatment option. Your practitioner will assess your skin during a consultation.
Non-Surgical Treatments for Fine Lines
PRP Therapy (Platelet-Rich Plasma)
PRP uses your body’s own growth factors to promote collagen production and support skin regeneration. This treatment is often used in areas of fine lines to improve texture, firmness, and hydration.
Mono PDO Threads
Mono threads are fine, absorbable sutures placed beneath the skin to encourage natural collagen stimulation. While they don’t physically lift the skin, they can gradually improve elasticity and texture where early laxity is a concern.
Skin Needling (Microneedling)
This treatment uses a fine-needle device to create micro-injuries that trigger the skin’s repair response. The result is improved tone, texture, and firmness over time. Skin needling is suitable for delicate areas such as around the eyes or mouth.
What to Expect from Treatment
These treatments typically require a series of sessions to achieve gradual, natural-looking improvement. During consultation, your practitioner will provide a tailored plan outlining:
- Number of recommended treatments
- Expected healing timelines
- Skincare to support results
Most procedures are well tolerated with minimal downtime and are suitable for those seeking subtle enhancement.
When to Consider Treatment
You may benefit from a consultation to assess options for skin quality support if you notice:
- Creases forming around your eyes, mouth, or forehead
- A “tired” appearance that doesn’t reflect how you feel
- A desire to support your skin long term with non-surgical care
