Rejuvenate And Smoothen The Signs Of Ageing And Fine Lines
Wrinkles and fine lines are one of the most common signs of ageing. Wrinkles which occur due to loss of collagen and elastin, are deep and pronounced creases on the skin’s surface. Meanwhile, fine lines are subtle and result from sun exposure, dehydration, or repeating facial expressions. They commonly show around the corner of the eyes, forehead, and around the mouth areas.
Both wrinkles and fine lines are influenced by various factors, including:
A type of wrinkle characterised by fine lines that appear parallel to each other, usually on the skin’s surface. These wrinkles are typically associated with certain facial expressions or muscle movements.
These wrinkles form due to repeated movements of the skin, often in association with facial expressions and overexposure to the sun. These creases tend to occur in specific areas where the skin is naturally more elastic, such as corners of the mouth, sides of the nose, and outer corners of the eyes, and they can become more pronounced over time.
Dynamic Wrinkles can be identified by the lines and creases that appear from facial movements and expressions, most notably during smiling, frowning, or squinting.
These refer to wrinkles or folds that develop due to the effects of gravity on the skin over time. These folds are typically more pronounced in areas where the skin is subject to gravitational pull, such as the jowls or cheeks, causing it to sag or droop.
At Glowwis, our MOH-certified doctor Dr. Sam will employ a customised approach, combining the most compatible treatments according to your skin’s conditions and concerns to achieve your desired result.
Neurotoxin (Botox) is an injectable treatment used to address wrinkles and fine lines. The active ingredient, botulinum toxin, blocks nerve signals in the muscles, preventing them from contracting. By inhibiting muscle contraction, Botox prevents the formation of wrinkles and fine lines associated with muscle movement. Dr. Sam aims to provide results that are subtle and natural.
Collagen skin boosters, also known as collagen injections or dermal fillers containing collagen, can be used to address fine lines and wrinkles. These injectable treatments work by replenishing and stimulating collagen production in the skin. The introduction of collagen to the treatment area softens fine lines and creases, creating a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance.
Gold Plated Micro Needle RF (Radiofrequency) combines micro-needling with radiofrequency technology. Micro-needles are employed to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin while the radiofrequency energy helps to enhance the overall rejuvenation effects, particularly in addressing wrinkles and fine lines. When combined with microneedling, radiofrequency energy is delivered into the deeper layers of the skin.
Q Switch Laser produces laser light at a specific wavelength (normally 1064 nanometers). While this treatment is commonly used to treat pigmentation and melanin, it stimulates fibroblasts which affects the production of collagen in the skin. This effect helps to improve the skin’s elasticity and firmness.
Dermal Fillers are made from various substances such as hyaluronic acid, collagen, calcium hydroxylapatite, and poly-L-lactic acid which when injected into the skin, helps to lift and smoothen fine lines, allowing you to achieve a youthful appearance.
High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) helps to stimulate collagen production and trigger tightening and lifting effects by releasing HIFU energy into the Superficial Muscular Aponeurotic System (SMAS). The treatment is non-invasive with minimal downtime.
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) skin boosters, as their name suggests, serve as a hydrating booster once injected into the skin through a series of microinjections. Due to its ability to retain and attract water molecules, it hydrates and adds volume to the skin while smoothens the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
CO2 Laser produces a concentrated beam of light to target specific areas of the skin by removing thin layers and promoting skin regeneration. Post-treatment, collagen production increases, and the skin will improve in firmness and elasticity, therefore diminishing wrinkles and fine lines.

UV rays cause ageing and damage to the skin, applying sunscreen with SPF 30 daily will protect the skin.
Sufficient water intake helps to increase skin’s hydration and prevents dehydration which prevents the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
A balanced diet rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants derived from fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and proteins is one of the key habits to achieve a healthier complexion.
Smoking speeds up the body’s ageing process, causing wrinkles and fine lines to appear more prominent, especially around the mouth and eye areas.
Consuming alcohol excessively causes dehydration and premature ageing of the skin. It is best to limit the intake.
Ideally, it is best to get 7 to 9 hours of sleep as quality deep sleep helps to promote skin repair and regeneration.

Fine lines can creep in in your 20s whereas deeper wrinkles become apparent when you’re in your 30s. However, these can be influenced by other factors such as genetics and lifestyle.
Side effects can vary depending on the type of treatment employed. This could include redness, swelling, or bruising. Hence, a professional will walk you through the potential risks and benefits of each treatment, suggesting the ones that suit you best.
It’s not possible to eliminate the appearance of wrinkles but by practicing healthy skincare routines, consuming a balanced diet, leading an active lifestyle, and undergoing suitable treatments, the skin will appear smoother and youthful.
Results may differ according to treatment. While some may last for a year or longer, others such as Botox could only last for 3 to 4 months. Consistent maintenance helps to achieve a longer-lasting result.
