Professional fine lines and wrinkles treatment consultation

Fine lines and wrinkles are a natural part of ageing, but they don't have to define your appearance. As we continue into 2026, advanced aesthetic treatments are more effective than ever at softening existing lines and preventing new ones. At Cosmetics By Briony, we combine cutting-edge technology with medical-grade skincare to deliver comprehensive anti-ageing solutions including Exosome Therapy, Rejuran, Skin Needling, Performance Peels, Hydrafacial, IPL, RF Skin Tightening, and LED Photo Therapy.

Common Causes of Fine Lines & Wrinkles

Aging

As we age, skin cell turnover slows down, and the production of essential skin proteins decreases. This leads to thinning of the outer skin layer and the formation of wrinkles. Recent studies show that collagen production begins declining as early as our mid-20s, with a significant drop of approximately 1% per year after age 30, accelerating in our 40s and beyond.

Facial Muscles

The muscles responsible for facial expressions—such as smiling, frowning, or squinting—can contribute to the development of fine lines and wrinkles over time.

Solar Damage

UV rays from the sun can accelerate the ageing process. Sun exposure damages collagen in the skin, which is vital for maintaining skin's elasticity and preventing wrinkles.

Lifestyle Factors

Poor diet and smoking can also impair your body's ability to produce collagen. The lower the collagen levels, the more likely wrinkles are to form.

Common Areas of Concern

Common areas of concern for fine lines and wrinkles that we treat in our clinic are:

Frown Lines

Forehead Lines

Crows Feet

Bunny Lines

Mentalis

Lip Flip

Masseter Muscle

DAO

Nefertiti Neck Lift

Plant Shadows

Additional Treatment Options

Dermapen Skin Needling

This treatment involves tiny, controlled micro-injuries created by a series of fine needles, which stimulate the skin's natural healing process. This process boosts collagen and elastin production, resulting in smoother, firmer, and more youthful skin.

IPL Photo Rejuvenation

IPL light therapy transforms into heat, causing the controlled photothermal effect. This causes cellular denaturing, and the body does the rest. Entering the wound-healing phase to regenerate collagen and elastin.

Hydrafacial

The Hydrafacial is a non-invasive, multi-step treatment designed to rejuvenate the skin and target concerns like fine lines and wrinkles. Using a combination of gentle exfoliation, deep cleansing, and hydrating serums, HydraFacial addresses the key factors that contribute to ageing skin.

RF Skin Tightening

Radiofrequency (RF) skin tightening treatments are generally considered effective and safe for improving skin laxity and promoting a more youthful appearance, particularly for mild to moderate signs of ageing.

Personalized Treatment Planning

We recommend scheduling a consultation and full facial assessment to discuss your individual suitability, treatment options, and investment.

We offer a range of treatments, including skincare, dermapen, performance peels, Hydrafacials, and non-surgical aesthetic treatments, all designed to soften existing lines, prevent new ones, and support healthy ageing.
