Dynamic lines are lines that only appear during facial expressions and muscle activity, such as forehead wrinkles (when raising the eyebrows), crows feet around the eyes (when smiling), and frown lines between the eyebrows (when frowning and squinting).

Static wrinkles are described as papery or deep creases that are evident in the skin without any facial movement, such as smoker lines or vertical lines above the upper lip and other areas of the face noted above.

These skin concerns can be more pronounced due to sun exposure and lifestyle habits. A consultation with a qualified medical practitioner can assist to identify suitable options based on individual concerns, facial profile, and clinical presentation.

Jaw clenching often stems from tension or involuntary muscle activity in the masseter muscles, potentially leading to discomfort, facial asymmetry, and even headaches.

Excessive sweating, also known as hyperhidrosis, can occur in areas such as the underarms, hands, or face, and may be due to overactive sweat glands unrelated to heat or exertion.

A gummy smile (where a significant portion of the upper gums shows when smiling) can be a result of factors like a hyperactive upper lip or altered tooth-to-gum proportion.

These concerns often relate to muscle activity and functional anatomy, and are commonly assessed as part of a broader approach to facial balance and comfort. A qualified medical practitioner can assess clinical presentation and determine appropriate pathways of care.

These skin concerns can occur due to a combination of natural ageing, genetics, environmental exposure, and lifestyle factors. As we age, the skin’s collagen and elastin levels decrease, fat pads shift, and bone density gradually reduces, which can contribute to hollowing, sagging, or imbalance in facial contours. Weight fluctuations, sun exposure, and other external influences may also accelerate these changes. Understanding the underlying cause is essential for determining the most appropriate treatment plan.

Assessment by a qualified medical practitioner can assist in determining appropriate options to address individual concerns, with treatments tailored to unique facial profile and clinical needs.

These concerns can arise from a combination of intrinsic ageing, hormonal changes, nutritional deficiencies, genetic predisposition, and environmental stressors. Over time, the body’s natural regenerative processes slow down, which may lead to reduced collagen production, diminished blood flow to the scalp, and weakening of skin and hair structures. Factors such as chronic stress, UV exposure, and lifestyle habits can further contribute to the visible signs of ageing and reduced skin and hair vitality.
