What Are Fine Lines & Wrinkles?

Facial expressions are created by small muscles beneath the skin that contract whenever you smile, frown, squint, or raise your eyebrows. Over time, these repeated muscle movements fold the overlying skin in the same areas. As collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid naturally decline with age, the skin becomes less resilient and loses its ability to rebound completely after each expression, allowing temporary creases to gradually become more pronounced.

Fine lines are early expression-related creases that appear during movement, while dynamic wrinkles become deeper and may eventually remain visible even when your face is relaxed. At LaVida Medspa, we evaluate your facial anatomy, muscle activity, wrinkle severity, and goals to develop a treatment plan that softens targeted muscle contractions while preserving balanced, natural facial expressions.

What Are the Signs of Fine Lines & Wrinkles?

Common signs of fine lines and wrinkles include:

  • Horizontal forehead lines
  • Vertical frown lines between the eyebrows (11 lines)
  • Crow’s feet around the outer corners of the eyes
  • Bunny lines across the bridge of the nose
  • Fine lines around the lips (smoker’s lines)
  • Downturned corners of the mouth
  • Chin dimpling or an “orange peel” appearance
  • Vertical platysmal bands on the neck
  • Creases that become more noticeable with facial expressions
  • Wrinkles that remain visible even when the face is at rest
