A wrinkle treatment is used to soften the lines that form from years of facial expression. It works by relaxing the small muscles under your skin that contract when you move your face, such as your frontalis (the muscle across your forehead), your corrugator and procerus (the muscles between your brows that pull inward when you frown), and your orbicularis oculi (around your eyes). When those muscles temporarily relax, the lines they create soften too.

Wrinkle treatments are typically used for dynamic lines, which are the ones that show up when your face moves. They can also be considered for static lines, which are the ones that stay visible even when your face is at rest, though how much these soften depends on the line itself and the factors contributing to it.

If you’ve noticed lines becoming more visible over time, you’re not alone. If you’re exploring treatment options, book a consultation with one of our AHPRA-registered nurses. They’ll assess how your face moves, discuss your concerns, and let you know whether wrinkle treatment is likely to be a suitable option.

Facial lines wrinkle treatments may target

Wrinkle treatments are most often used to soften the appearance of expression lines. Common areas  include:

Close-up of forehead lines and wrinkles showing skin concerns and how to prevent forehead wrinkles with proper care

Forehead lines (frontalis)

Horizontal lines that show up when you raise your eyebrows. The frontalis is the muscle responsible.

Glabellar lines (corrugator)

The vertical ’11’ lines between your brows. They form when the corrugator and procerus pull your brows inward.

Crow's feet (orbicularis oculi)

The fine lines that fan out from the outer corners of your eyes. The orbicularis oculi contracts whith movement,

Bunny lines (nasalis)

Small horizontal creases across the bridge of your nose. They show up when the nasalis scrunches.

Frontal view of a woman’s lower face showing natural smile lines and nasolabial folds extending from the nose to the corners of the mouth.

Nasolabial lines (LLSAN-driven)

Lines from the side of your nose to the corner of your mouth. The LLSAN muscle contributes via movement.

How we approach wrinkle treatment at Luxe Lips

Every consultation at Luxe Lips follows the same steps. Whether you’re here for one area or the whole face. Your nurse will:

Go through your medical history and check for contraindications
Look at how your face moves, both in motion and at rest, and identify where your lines are forming
Identify the specific muscles contributing to each line you’d like to address

Tell you honestly whether wrinkle treatment is the right approach for what you’re describing.

Map out the plan (areas, treatment, aftercare) only if you decide you’d like to go ahead

At Luxe Lips, we operate to the standards of the Aesthetic Beauty Industry Council (ABIC), the Aesthetics Practitioners Advisory Network (APAN), and the Cosmetic Nurses Association (CNA). Three recognised professional frameworks for cosmetic nursing in Australia.

What to expect: consultation through post-treatment

Your wrinkle treatment journey at Luxe Lips runs in three stages: consultation, treatment, and aftercare.

Personalised treatment plan

Your treatment plan is built during your consultation, based on how your face moves and where your lines are forming. You’ll see the plan, including treatment areas, approach, and expected next steps, before any treatment happens, with no obligation to proceed.

If you’d like to learn more about personalised treatment options, book your consultation now.

Considered treatment session

Your treatment is carried out by your nurse in a calm, unhurried session. Most appointments run around 15–30 minutes, depending on how many areas you’re having treated.

Topical numbing is available if you’d prefer, and your nurse will talk you through each step along the way, so nothing comes as a surprise. Afterwards, they’ll check everything and walk you through your aftercare before you leave.

24/7 real-person aftercare

After your treatment, our team remains by your side with thoughtful aftercare and ongoing support. We ensure you feel informed and cared for throughout your journey, giving you peace of mind at every stage.

While unlikely, if you experience any adverse effects, please contact your local clinic so one of our aesthetics team can follow up to ensure maximum safety and satisfaction.

Your wrinkle treatment lifecycle

How a wrinkle treatment may settle over time

Everyone’s experience is different, but wrinkle treatments tend to follow a similar pattern. For some people, gradual changes may start to become noticeable over the first one to two weeks. Many find the change feels most apparent around the two-to-four-week mark. From there, things tend to gradually soften and ease back over the following months.

Outcomes vary based on muscle activity, skin condition, and how each individual responds. A consultation is required before any treatment to determine whether wrinkle treatment is suitable for you.
Wrinkle treatments may show gradual changes over the first week or two, with effects often becoming more noticeable around the two to four week mark, before gradually softening over the following months. Device-based treatments (like Morpheus8 or Fotona Frac3) often have a longer settling period as collagen remodelling occurs, with progressive improvement over weeks to months.

Your clinician will map out a personalised timeline during your consultation, including when to schedule your follow-up review and when ongoing treatment planning may be appropriate. Results vary from person to person. A consultation with a medical professional is required to determine suitability.

Let’s ANSWER your wrinkle treatment questions!

The things people usually want to know before booking a wrinkle treatment consultation in Melbourne.

What is a wrinkle treatment?

A wrinkle treatment is a clinical, non-surgical treatment that influences the muscle activity behind your expression lines. By temporarily easing off the small muscles that contract when you make expressions, the lines those muscles create tend to soften over the following weeks.

 

Wrinkle treatments are most commonly used for upper-face lines. Forehead lines, frown (glabellar) lines, crow’s feet, and bunny lines. Lower-face concerns may also be considered depending on what’s clinically appropriate for you.

Suitability is determined during your consultation. Outcomes vary person to person.

Dynamic lines are facial lines that appear when your face moves. When you frown, smile, or raise your eyebrows. They’re caused by repeated contraction of specific facial muscles.

Static lines are lines that remain visible even when your face is at rest. Static lines often originate from years of repeated muscle movement combined with natural changes in skin structure and volume over time.

 

Wrinkle treatment tends to be most effective on dynamic lines, though it may also help soften some static lines that originated from muscle movement. Whether a wrinkle treatment is appropriate for static lines depends on the line’s depth and underlying cause. A consultation is required to assess this.

Everyone’s experience is different, but wrinkle treatment effects often start to feel most apparent around the two-to-four-week mark and tend to gradually soften and ease back over the following months.

Duration depends on a number of personal factors, including muscle strength, metabolism, treatment area, and how your body responds. Some people find effects last longer than others, and the same person may notice different durations in different areas of the face. A consultation is required to discuss what may be appropriate for your individual situation and to plan any follow-up timing.
For most people, gradual changes may start to become visible over the first one to two weeks after treatment. The change often feels most apparent somewhere between the second and fourth week, though this varies person to person.

How quickly things settle in depends on muscle activity, skin metabolism, and individual response. It’s normal for one area to show change before another, even within the same treatment plan.

Your nurse will walk you through what to monitor during the days following your treatment and when to come back if a follow-up review is appropriate.
Wrinkle treatment is generally well-tolerated. Sensation varies between patients and between treatment areas. What feels brief and easy for one person may feel different for another. Topical numbing is available on request before treatment if you’d prefer to reduce sensation further. The treatment itself is brief, and most people are comfortable returning to their normal day shortly afterwards.

Your nurse will walk through what to expect during the session as part of your consultation, including specific aftercare instructions for the hours following treatment.
Suitability for wrinkle treatment is determined during your consultation. A nurse will look at your medical history, current medications, how your face moves, and where your lines are forming, then talk you through whether wrinkle treatment is clinically appropriate for what you’re describing.

Wrinkle treatments can be adapted to a wide range of adults, but suitability is always assessed on an individual basis. Factors like skin condition, the depth of your lines, and your overall medical history are all part of the clinical decision.

Sometimes wrinkle treatment isn’t the most suitable option, and your nurse will tell you that honestly if so.
Wrinkle treatment may not be suitable for everyone. Common contraindications include pregnancy, breastfeeding, certain neuromuscular conditions, and specific medication considerations.

Allergies, skin conditions at the treatment site, and recent procedures in the same area can also affect suitability. Your nurse will screen for contraindications as part of every consultation, before any treatment is discussed.

If a contraindication is identified, your nurse will explain what it means for you and discuss whether alternative approaches may be appropriate for your concerns.
A ‘frozen’ look usually comes from over-treatment or treatment that doesn’t account for individual muscle strength and facial dynamics. Conservative, considered treatments are based on how your specific face moves and allows lines to soften while keeping your natural expression intact.

Luxe Lips works from a clinical-assessment-first approach. Your nurse looks at how your face moves, identifies which muscles are contributing to each line, and works out a plan that respects your facial balance.

You’re also welcome to start conservatively and review the result before deciding whether to add more, there’s no expectation to commit to a full plan at once.
Wrinkle treatment addresses lines created by muscle movement, by temporarily influencing the muscle activity underneath. It’s most useful for dynamic lines and some static lines that originated from movement.

Volume-restoration treatment addresses lines and changes that come from facial volume loss, by replacing or stimulating new tissue in the area. It’s typically used for deeper folds, hollowing, or structural changes.

Plenty of concerns benefit from a combined approach. Your nurse will assess your face during your consultation and talk you through which approach (or combination) is clinically appropriate for what you’re describing.
Side effects from wrinkle treatment are uncommon and typically resolve on their own. Possible side effects can include localised bruising, temporary asymmetry, or a mild headache, though most settle within a few days without intervention.

Luxe Lips provides 24/7 real-person aftercare support. If something feels unexpected or you’d like to check in, you can reach a real member of our clinical team any time, day or night. If a side effect persists or feels significant, your nurse can arrange a follow-up appointment to assess in person and discuss next steps.
