Wrinkle treatment in Munich: identify the cause before choosing the method

Fine lines, expression lines, volume loss and declining tissue firmness look different and are not treated with the same method.

What kind of line have you noticed?

Fine lines, wrinkles during movement and a deeper wrinkle at rest are different starting points. Skin hydration, facial movement, volume distribution and declining tissue firmness may all interact.

For the consultation, it helps to know whether the line is mainly visible when you smile or frown, is noticeable at all times or accompanies a change in contour. This does not establish a diagnosis, but it allows a more focused discussion of your goal.

Four starting points for your consultation

Fine lines at the skin surface

The first considerations here are skin condition and care. Information is available on professional facial treatments, Skin boosters and Meso Face. Which application may be considered depends on the product and the skin.

Lines caused by facial movement

If a line is mainly noticeable during movement, facial expression must also be considered. Wanting smoother skin does not automatically mean that additional volume makes sense. The consultation should also clarify which options for the desired goal are not available.

Changes in fullness

When fullness is lacking, filler treatment may be discussed. The visible wrinkle and the possible treatment area are not necessarily the same.

Declining tissue firmness

A wish to improve contour requires a different assessment from a fine line. The page on Face and contours explains the difference between volume loss and tissue laxity. Significant excess skin limits what non-surgical procedures can achieve.

Agree on a specific goal and its limitations

Complete smoothing is not achievable for every wrinkle. The discussion covers what change appears realistic with the particular method and which features should be preserved.

Results and their duration depend on factors including the method, product, area and your starting point. Risks, possible visible reactions and the required aftercare are part of the decision.

Frequently asked questions

There is no single best method for everyone. The key is whether the main concern is the skin surface, facial movement, volume or tissue.

No. The cause may lie in an adjacent area, or another procedure may be more suitable.

This page focuses on a specific line or wrinkle. Healthy Ageing helps organise longer-term goals for skincare and possible treatments.
