NOSE SCRUNCH LINES/ NASAL WRINKLES

Cosmetic treatment for reducing nasal lines at Restore My Glow, Gold Coast.​

 

Question 1.

what are nasal wrinkles/ nose scrunch lines?

These are the lines that appear either side of your nose and on the bridge of your nose when you scrunch your face, smile or frown.  They are a normal part of the ageing process but can be quite prominent and deep in some individuals. 

 

Question 2.

how do they form?

​

With repetitive facial movements and expressions such as smiling, squinting or frowning these nasal lines can become deeper and more noticeable, causing some individuals to be self-conscious.  

As we age the skin is losing elasticity, and with repeated contraction of the muscles, fine lines appear on the sides and bridge of the nose. In addition to the ageing process and changes in the skin, genetics, sun damage, diet and environmental factors such as smoking and lifestyle can all impact the degree and depth of these lines. 

 

Question 3.

can nasal lines be prevented?

 

Understanding the factors that contribute to their formation, will help to prevent them from becoming more prominent and help to maintain a youthful appearance. 

Fortunately, there are many treatments that can reduce their appearance such as cosmetic and skin treatments, reducing the appearance of wrinkles, and volume replacement if they do become deep. 

A combination approach can help to soften the appearance of the nasal wrinkles and strengthen the skin.

 

Reducing the appearance of nasal wrinkles treatment

 

Relaxing the strength of the muscle that causes the nasal lines will help to soften their appearance and prevent new nasal lines from forming.  If the nasal lines have become quite deep and still remain after this treatment, alternative treatments to lift the wrinkles (volume replacement) or skin treatments such as skin needling, PRP, or skin boosters may be suggested to improve the skin elasticity.  Mostly combination treatments are used to reduce the nasal wrinkles that cause the resemblance of bunny scrunch lines.

 

Question 4.

How long does reducing the appearance of nasal lines treatments last?

 

Treatments to relax the muscle on the nose can smooth lines effectively, but as your body metabolises these substances, the effects will gradually diminish. This natural process means that maintenance treatments are essential if you wish to keep those unwelcome lines at bay.

 

Typically, follow-up appointments every few months can help preserve your refreshed look. It's advisable to consult with your health care professional to determine a treatment plan that best aligns with your desired results.

  

Question 5.

what else can be done to reduce their appearance?

 

Skin Needling/ Microneedling

 

Skin needling uses an electronic device with multiple tiny needles to penetrate the skin surface in a controlled and precise way- adjusting the depth according to the tissue type and skin concerns. This stimulates the body to produce its own collagen and elastin and thereby improving the skin texture, tone and reducing the appearance of the nasal wrinkles. This treatment also targets hyperpigmentation, enlarged pores and scarring. 

 

Skin needling can also be combined with skin boosters and peptides to further enhance skin results. Another combination is combining skin needling with chemical peels to target nasal lines. 

 

Skin needling can also be combined with exosomes to further improve the skin around the nose and soften nasal wrinkles. There are so many skin treatments that can improve these wrinkles so a consultation is always so important so a personalised plan can be made up especially for you.

PRP - Platelet Rich Plasma

 

Platelet Rich Plasma is a scientifically proven skin rejuvenation treatment that boosts your own collagen production, tones and tightens the skin by repairing the elasticity and quality of the skin. As the skin on the nose is generally quite thin, this treatment can improve the wrinkles but also strengthen the skin. Around the eyes, around the mouth, neck, decolletage or the full face can be treated.

 

Rejuran

 

Rejuran is a new class of an injectable skin treatment designed to repair, hydrate and rejuvenate the skin.

Rejuran is a bio-remodelling injectable product that harnesses the power of polynucleotides, extracted from salmon DNA.  These provide the building blocks to boost collagen and elastin production in the skin.  These proteins are essential to help maintain skin structure and elasticity. When Rejuran is injected into your skin, collagen increases making the skin tighter, dermis thicker and reduces the appearance of lines and wrinkles. It differs to other skin boosters as it also has an anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant benefit.

Chemical Peels

 

Encourages the growth of new skin cells, to improve the texture, tone and luminosity of the skin. These are customised according to individual skin type and condition. We have a range of customised chemical peels available to target wrinkles and add hydration into the skin. For light exfoliation to a deeper exfoliation- but both with no down time and can be incorporated into other skin treatments. 

 

Daily Use of SPF 50+

 

Scientifically proven to protect the skin from premature ageing.  Protecting the skin from harmful UVA and UVB rays by reducing the formation of wrinkles and reducing dark spots and discolouration. Will strengthen the skins barrier and promote hydration.  The sun does weaken the skins barrier so look for a broad-spectrum 50+ that does contain added ingredients and hydration. 

We are a proud stockist of Airyday 50+ skin screens. They are light and hydrating with a 50+ sunscreen, makeup primer, blue light blocking, contains hyaluronic acid and vitamins C, E & F. Australian made and they don’t feel like a sunscreen at all.

​

LED Light Therapy

​

Light emitting diode is a non-invasive treatment that improves the skin by targeting a range of skin concerns such as acne, eczema, psoriasis, rosacea and boosts your own collagen.  LED light therapy uses different wave lengths of light to penetrate the skin at different depths. 

Airyday LED masks are available in clinic to purchase to use in the comfort of your own home for 10 minutes, 3 times a week. These masks have 3 clinically proven wavelengths of light that can be used separately or together to reduce the appearance of your nasal lines.

 
Skin Care with Active Ingredients

 

Daily use of active skin care to boost collagen such as retinol, vitamin C and peptides can help to improve the appearance of wrinkles over time. 

 

At Restore My Glow we stock Bioline skincare that suits all skin types.  It contains active skin ingredients and works in combination with all our other aesthetic treatments in clinic.

 

Facials

 

We have a range of facials that we can customise to your skin type and skin condition.  For anti-ageing benefits, improve texture and tone and to reduce redness and calm the skin.  We have facials for the most sensitive skins that cannot tolerate many other products or treatments.

 

The Bioline gold facial incorporates a peel into the facial and some peels can be combined with skin needling for maximum skin benefits.

 

​​

Lifestyle Changes

 

Quality sleep, staying hydrated and a balanced diet can all help to contribute to slowing down the visible signs of ageing and facial lines.

Question 7.

Are the results of nasal line treatments permanent?

​

While treatments for nasal lines can deliver noticeable improvements, it's important to understand that these results are not everlasting. Over time, follow-up sessions will be required to sustain the initial effect.

​

Treatments to relax the muscle on the nose can smooth lines effectively, but as your body metabolises these substances, the effects will gradually diminish. This natural process means that maintenance treatments are essential if you wish to keep those unwelcome lines at bay.

​

Typically, follow-up appointments every few months can help preserve your refreshed look. It's advisable to consult with your health care professional to determine a treatment plan that best aligns with your desired results.
