Discuss Your Options for Lines & Wrinkles

If you are exploring ways to address facial lines, such as forehead lines, frown lines, or crow's feet, the essential first step is a comprehensive medical consultation. At PRP London Clinic, our medical team provides expert assessments to discuss your specific concerns and help you understand what approaches, sometimes referred to by patients as 'anti-wrinkle treatments', might be suitable for you. It is crucial to understand that some effective treatments for dynamic lines involve prescription-only medicines. These can only be prescribed by a qualified medical professional, following a face-to-face assessment of your suitability and medical history.

This page outlines the consultation process for addressing these concerns. We can discuss issues related to the Upper Face, Lower Face & Mouth, the Jawline, the Neck, or conditions like Excessive Sweating.

Many individuals seek consultations when they notice the appearance of facial lines and wrinkles. These can be 'dynamic' (caused by muscle activity during expressions) or 'static' (visible even when the face is at rest). Understanding the type and cause of your lines is key to discussing appropriate management strategies during your a consultation with our medical team. The aim is to provide advice that helps achieve a natural and refreshed look, tailored to your individual goals.

Our priority is your safety and ensuring you make informed decisions. A consultation with our medical team will involve:

1. A detailed discussion of your aesthetic concerns and medical history.
2. A careful assessment of your facial structure and skin quality.
3. An explanation of various potential approaches to address your concerns. This will include information on benefits, limitations, and any potential risks associated with each option suitable for you.
4. If treatments involving prescription medicines are discussed as a possibility, our medical team will explain the nature of these treatments, why they are prescription-only, and assess your suitability. No such treatment can be administered without a prior prescription from a qualified medical professional.

The goal is to empower you with information to choose the best path for you. There is never an obligation to proceed with any suggested treatment.

Our medical team consults on a variety of facial areas where lines and wrinkles may be a concern:

Your appointment will focus on the consultation:

1. Comprehensive Discussion: Our medical team will listen to your concerns, take a medical history, and understand what you hope to achieve.
2. Expert Assessment: Examination of relevant facial areas.
3. Information on Options: Our medical team will explain suitable strategies based on your assessment. If any of these involve prescription medicines, he will provide detailed information about them, including the need for a prescription.
4. Personalised Advice: You will receive tailored advice. If a specific treatment plan is mutually agreed upon, and if it involves a prescription medicine, our medical team will ensure all regulatory and medical protocols are followed before any treatment is administered.

Should an injectable approach be chosen (post-consultation and prescription, if required), the administration process is typically quick. Patient comfort is always a priority.

The results you might expect, and how long they may last, vary greatly depending on the individual and the approach chosen (e.g., skincare, non-prescription treatments, or prescription treatments if deemed appropriate and prescribed). Our medical team will provide realistic, individualised expectations during your consultation. For some medical treatments targeting dynamic lines, changes may become noticeable over several days to two weeks, with effects typically lasting several months before a further consultation might be considered.

Your safety and well-being are paramount. All aesthetic procedures carry potential risks and have contraindications. A full medical consultation with our medical team is essential to determine your suitability for any treatment and to discuss all potential benefits and risks. We only use high-quality products from reputable sources. Treatments involving prescription medicines are only ever prescribed and overseen by a qualified medical professional (Our medical team) after a thorough face-to-face assessment.
