Fine Lines & Wrinkles Treatment in Soho
Fine lines and wrinkles treatment in Soho, London, led by NMC-registered nurses. We soften the lines you notice while keeping your face moving naturally, starting with a face-to-face consultation.
Overview
Understanding fine lines & wrinkles
Fine lines and wrinkles are the creases that develop in skin over time, produced by repeated muscle movement, declining collagen and elastin, and falling hydration. They fall into two groups. Expression lines on the forehead, between the brows and around the eyes are created by movement: every frown, squint and smile folds the skin in the same place. Static fine lines stay visible when your face is completely at rest, and reflect the condition of the skin itself rather than the muscles beneath it. Most faces show a mixture of both, which is why one treatment rarely tells the whole story.
Our nurse-led team in Soho treats the cause, not just the crease. Anti-wrinkle injections use a purified protein to temporarily relax the specific muscles that create expression lines, while skin boosters, polynucleotides and SkinPen microneedling rebuild the hydration and collagen that keep skin smooth at rest. Every plan begins with a face-to-face consultation and 3D Visage facial analysis, so treatment matches your skin rather than a trend. The aim is healthy ageing: you look healthier and well rested without looking like you have had cosmetic work.
Why it happens
What causes fine lines & wrinkles?
- Repeated facial muscle movement: frowning, squinting and raising the brows fold the skin in the same place
- Natural collagen and elastin decline, which begins in the late twenties and gathers pace from the forties
- Falling hyaluronic acid levels, leaving skin drier and less able to bounce back
- Cumulative UV exposure, the largest external driver of premature lines
- Smoking, which narrows blood vessels in the skin and speeds collagen breakdown
- Sleep position and dehydration, which etch fine creases that gradually settle in
Treatment approach
How we treat fine lines & wrinkles
Anti-Wrinkle Injections
From £205First choice for expression lines on the upper face. A purified protein temporarily relaxes the specific muscles that fold the skin, so the forehead, frown and eye area soften over around 14 days and typically stay softer for 3 to 4 months. Prescription treatments are only provided after a face-to-face consultation with one of our nurse prescribers.
See treatment detail →Skin Boosters
From £170For fine static lines driven by dryness and thinning skin, injectable skin boosters restore deep hydration and elasticity from within. We use Jalupro and Stylage Hydro (£200) or HydroMax (£280), usually as a short course: lines soften because the skin itself is healthier, not because anything has been filled.
See treatment detail →Polynucleotides
£220 per sessionSalmon-DNA-derived polynucleotides support your skin's own repair, improving elasticity and fine crepey lines over a course of 2 to 3 sessions spaced weeks apart. Sessions are £220 each, or £600 for a course of 3, and results build gradually over the following weeks.
See treatment detail →Microneedling (SkinPen)
From £220SkinPen Precision microneedling prompts your skin to produce new collagen where fine surface lines and uneven texture have set in. A course of 3 sessions is typical (£220 per session, £600 for the course), with results developing over around 3 months as collagen remodels.

Common
questions
Which treatment is right for my fine lines and wrinkles?
It depends on whether your lines come from muscle movement, skin quality or both, which is why we never prescribe from a photograph. Book a face-to-face consultation in Soho: our nurses use 3D Visage facial analysis to map your skin and movement, then build a personalised plan around what your face actually needs.
What is the difference between expression lines and static wrinkles?
Expression lines appear when you move: frowning, squinting or raising your brows folds the skin in the same place. Static wrinkles stay visible when your face is completely at rest, and usually reflect declining collagen and hydration. Expression lines respond best to anti-wrinkle injections, while static lines need skin-quality treatments.
Will my face still move after anti-wrinkle injections?
Yes. We dose precisely so the muscles that etch lines relax while natural expression remains. Movement softens rather than stops, which is exactly the point. Results develop gradually over around 14 days and typically last 3 to 4 months, with a review to fine-tune anything that needs it.
Can fine lines be treated without injections?
Yes. SkinPen microneedling rebuilds collagen where fine surface lines and rough texture have set in, usually over a course of 3 sessions. Medical-grade skincare from ZO Skin Health and Noon supports the result at home. At consultation we will tell you honestly whether non-injectable options will reach the change you want.
When is the right age to start treatment?
There is no single right age: we treat what your skin shows, not the number. Most patients are between 35 and 55, though some start earlier for prevention when expression lines begin to linger at rest. We will tell you honestly if treatment is not needed yet.
