Personalised assessment and natural-looking treatment planning with an Advanced Nurse Practitioner and Independent Prescriber
Facial lines commonly develop through repeated expression, changes in skin quality and the gradual loss of collagen and facial support. The most appropriate approach depends on the type of line, its underlying cause and your individual facial anatomy.
At Jaime Correia Aesthetics, every treatment journey begins with a face-to-face consultation. Jaime will assess your facial movement, skin quality, medical history and treatment goals before discussing the options that may be appropriate for you.
The objective is not to remove every expression or change the character of your face. It is to create a balanced, naturally refreshed result while preserving the features that make you look like yourself.
What Causes Facial Lines and Wrinkles?
Lines and Wrinkles We Can Assess
Every face moves and ages differently. Your consultation will consider whether your concern is primarily caused by repeated muscle movement, changes in skin quality, collagen loss or reduced facial support.
Frown Lines
Vertical lines between the eyebrows can become more noticeable through repeated frowning or concentration. Jaime will assess the strength and balance of the surrounding muscles before discussing suitable options.
Forehead Lines
Horizontal forehead lines develop through repeated eyebrow movement. Treatment planning must consider your natural eyebrow position and overall facial balance to preserve expression.
Crow’s Feet
These fine lines appear around the outer corners of the eyes, particularly when smiling. Your consultation will assess muscle movement, skin quality and the delicate anatomy of the eye area.
Lines Around the Nose
Lines around the lips can result from movement, collagen loss, sun exposure and changes in skin structure. Depending on their cause, Jaime may discuss skin-quality treatments, collagen stimulation or carefully selected injectable options.
Lines Around the Mouth
Fine expression lines may appear across the sides or upper part of the nose. These require individual assessment because anatomy and muscle activity vary between patients.
Nasolabial Folds
Nasolabial folds extend from the sides of the nose towards the corners of the mouth. They are often influenced by facial structure and mid-face volume changes rather than muscle movement alone. Treatment, when appropriate, may focus on restoring support and balance instead of treating the fold directly.
Marionette Lines
These lines extend downwards from the corners of the mouth and may become more visible as facial support changes. A full lower-face assessment helps determine whether dermal filler, collagen stimulation or another approach may be appropriate.
No single treatment is right for every type of line or wrinkle. Following your assessment, Jaime will explain the available options, expected benefits, limitations and potential risks before creating a personalised plan.
Lines That May Need a Different Approach
Nasolabial Folds and Marionette Lines
​Nasolabial folds and marionette lines may be improved using different treatment approaches, depending on their cause, your facial anatomy and the degree of volume loss or skin laxity.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does Anti-Wrinkle treatment last?​​
Anti-Wrinkle typically lasts between 3 to 4 months on average, though results can range from 2 to 6 months depending on the individual, metabolism, and treatment area. Effects usually peak around 14 days and begin to wear off around 3-4 months, at which point retreatment is often recommended
Key Factors Affecting Duration​​
-
Metabolism: Individuals with faster metabolisms may break down the toxin quicker.
-
Muscularity & Dosage: Stronger, larger muscles may require more units and might regain movement sooner.
-
Treatment Area: Frown lines may last 4-6 months, while crow's feet or, lip lines may last 2-4 months
-
Lifestyle: Smoking, excessive sun exposure, and high activity levels can shorten result.
Anti-Wrinkle Timeline
-
Days 1-3: Little to no change, though some notice subtle softening.
-
Days 3-7: Noticeable relaxation of muscles and initial smoothing of wrinkles.
-
Days 10-14: Full results are apparent, with maximum muscle inhibition and smoother skin.
