Wrinkles & Fine Lines
The first signs of aging are often wrinkles around your eyes, forehead, cheeks, and lips. Wrinkles are a normal feature of the human face. But many people feel wrinkles make them look tired or older.

Different kinds of wrinkles
Dynamic wrinkles
Dynamic wrinkles are caused by muscle movement, such as those when you smile, laugh or squint. Common dynamic wrinkles include crow’s feet around your eyes and lines on your forehead. Botox uses various forms of botulinum toxin to temporarily paralyze or relax muscle activity and is a good option for dynamic wrinkles. It can smooth out wrinkles and restore a more youthful appearance.
Static wrinkles
Static wrinkles are caused by a loss of elasticity and collagen in your skin, or damage caused by the sun or smoking. Your skin becomes thinner and drier, and the silhouette of your face changes with age due to volume loss. Some providers may recommend Botox for static wrinkles, but fillers are much more effective. Fillers lift the skin, smooth out lines and wrinkles, restore volume loss and give you a fresher appearance. Common fillers including hyaluronic acid (Juvederm) are particularly suited for fine lines and wrinkles around your mouth. For many people, a combination of Botox and fillers will produce the best results.
Very fine lines and wrinkles
Very fine lines and wrinkles are formed when collagen in the skin starts to thin. Collagen is protein just beneath and within deep skin layers. Aging and sun damage cause collagen thinning. It makes the skin on your face stretch and sag, creating fine wrinkles. Botulinum toxin does not erase fine lines and wrinkles. However, there are other ways to reduce their appearance such as chemical peels, microneedling, mesotherapy and more.
