Wrinkles & Fine Lines
Newton, MA

Hit Pause on Premature Aging
Treating Wrinkles & Fine Lines at Newton Medical Aesthetics

Wrinkles and fine lines aren’t just about age—they’re about skin that's lived, moved, and expressed joy, focus, and surprise. But when those lines start to feel like they’re saying something you don’t agree with—like “tired” or “tense”—you might be ready to explore options.

At Newton Medical Aesthetics in Newton, MA, our team takes a medically grounded, personalized approach to wrinkle treatment and prevention. We focus on neuromodulators like Botox and Dysport, but also emphasize long-term skin health to help you feel confident now and later.

Lines Have Layers
What Causes Wrinkles & Fine Lines?

Wrinkles and fine lines develop from a combination of natural aging, repeated facial movements, and environmental exposure. Here's how it breaks down:

  • Natural aging: Collagen and elastin decline over time, causing skin to thin and lose structure.
  • Muscle movement: Smiling, frowning, raising your eyebrows—over years, these micro-movements create grooves in the skin.
  • Sun damage: UV rays accelerate aging by breaking down collagen and elastin.
  • Lifestyle habits: Smoking, poor hydration, lack of sleep, and high stress levels can all worsen signs of aging.
  • Genetics: Your DNA determines when and where you’ll develop fine lines.
  • Fine lines are typically surface-level creases that may be more visible when skin is dehydrated. Wrinkles are deeper and tend to stay put even when your face is at rest.

How Are Wrinkles & Fine Lines Treated?

Wrinkle and fine line treatments work best when they’re tailored to you—your skin, your concerns, and your goals. At Newton Medical Aesthetics, we offer a blend of targeted treatments and smart prevention strategies to help your skin age with grace.

Treatment Options

  • Neuromodulators: These are our go-to for dynamic wrinkles—the kind caused by muscle movement. Products like Botox or Dysport relax targeted muscles (like those around the eyes or on the forehead), helping the skin above to smooth out.
  • Microneedling: By creating controlled micro-injuries in the skin, microneedling stimulates collagen production. This is ideal for fine lines and texture issues.
  • Skincare & Medical-Grade Products: Prescription-strength topical treatments with retinoids, peptides, or growth factors can boost skin renewal, soften lines, and prevent new ones from forming.
  • PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin): For patients looking for a natural, regenerative option, PRF uses your own blood to stimulate skin repair and improve texture, especially under the eyes or around the mouth.

Prevention Strategies

The best wrinkle treatment is one you don’t need yet. Starting preventative care in your 20s or 30s can help delay deeper lines down the road.

  • Sun Protection: Daily SPF is essential. UV damage is a leading cause of premature wrinkles.
  • Healthy Lifestyle: Hydration, a nutrient-rich diet, adequate sleep, and avoiding smoking all help maintain collagen and skin elasticity.
  • Preventative Neuromodulators: Light doses can "train" muscles to stay relaxed, preventing lines from forming in the first place.
  • Regular Skin Maintenance: Monthly facials, consistent at-home skincare, and avoiding harsh cleansers or over-exfoliating can protect your skin barrier and maintain smoother texture.

By combining smart prevention with expert treatment, we help you get smoother, healthier-looking skin without overdoing it.

More Than Skin Deep
Benefits of Treating Wrinkles & Fine Lines

Treating wrinkles isn’t about erasing your history—it’s about softening lines that can distort how you feel versus how you appear. The benefits of wrinkle treatment go beyond the cosmetic:

Physically, neuromodulator treatments reduce the depth and prominence of wrinkles, resulting in smoother, more refreshed skin. Quick in-office procedures mean minimal downtime and a non-surgical solution to visible aging.

Psychologically, many patients report a boost in self-confidence and comfort in social or professional settings after treatment. When your appearance aligns more closely with how energized or relaxed you feel, it can improve your daily interactions and self-image.

Scientifically, these treatments work by temporarily relaxing specific facial muscles, reducing the repetitive contractions that etch lines into the skin. Over time, this can help preserve skin integrity and even retrain facial movement patterns to reduce future creasing.

  • A smoother, brighter complexion
  • Reduction in forehead lines, crow’s feet, and frown lines
  • Safe, non-invasive treatment with minimal interruption to your day
  • Confidence in a more rested, approachable appearance
  • Long-term skin support when paired with good skincare and lifestyle habits

Is It Right for You?
Who is a Candidate?

If you’re concerned about visible lines or want to prevent them from deepening, you may be a candidate. Good candidates include:

  • Those seeking subtle, natural-looking improvements

You may need to wait if you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a known allergy to botulinum toxin.

Let’s Talk Skin Goals

Consultation and Preparation

Your journey begins with a detailed consultation. Your trained provider will assess your facial anatomy, review your goals, and recommend the best treatment options.

Before your appointment:

  • Avoid alcohol, fish oil, and blood-thinning medications (if approved by your doctor) for 24–48 hours
  • Arrive with clean skin
  • Let us know about any recent illness, dental work, or immune conditions

Your 20-Minute Confidence Boost

Your Wrinkle Treatment Procedure

This varies depending on the treatment. Neuromodulator injections usually take less than 20 minutes and are performed with a very fine needle. Most patients do not require numbing. Other treatments, such as microneedling or PRF, may take longer and involve a topical anesthetic.

You’ll be able to return to your day with little disruption.

Smooth It Out

Recovery and Aftercare

Downtime varies by treatment, but neuromodulator recovery is generally minimal. You might experience mild swelling or redness for a few hours.

Common aftercare tips:

  • Avoid lying flat for 4 hours after injections
  • Don’t rub or massage the area
  • Skip intense workouts or heat exposure for 24 hours
When Will I Glow?
Results

Results begin to appear in 3–5 days for neuromodulators, with full effects at 7–10 days. Other treatments like microneedling or PRF may take longer but offer cumulative benefits over time.

To keep your skin looking its best:

  • Maintain consistent treatments (every 3–4 months for Botox/Dysport)
  • Use high-quality skincare at home
  • Protect your skin from sun exposure
