Wrinkle Treatment in Des Moines, WA

It depends on the type of wrinkle. Dynamic wrinkles caused by muscle movement respond well to Botox and other neuromodulators. Static wrinkles caused by volume loss and collagen decline often require fillers, RF microneedling, or laser resurfacing. Many patients benefit from a combination approach.

Dynamic wrinkles form from repeated facial expressions and appear when you move your face. Static wrinkles are visible even when your face is at rest and result from collagen loss, sun damage, and gravity over time.

While we cannot turn back the clock entirely, treatments like Botox, fillers, RF microneedling, and CO2 laser resurfacing can significantly reduce the appearance of wrinkles and prevent new ones from forming. Consistent treatment and sun protection help maintain results.

Cost varies depending on the type and number of treatments recommended. Botox is priced per unit, fillers per syringe, and device-based treatments per session. We provide a detailed cost estimate during your consultation after evaluating your specific needs.

Under-eye wrinkles can be addressed with conservative filler placement, RF microneedling, or chemical peels depending on severity. The delicate under-eye area requires careful assessment, and we will recommend the safest and most effective option for your skin.

Botox results last three to six months. Filler results last six months to two years. RF microneedling and CO2 laser results can last a year or more, though maintenance treatments help sustain the improvements over time.

For deep wrinkles, CO2 laser resurfacing typically delivers the most dramatic improvement in a single treatment. Botox addresses wrinkles caused by muscle movement (forehead, crow's feet, frown lines), while dermal fillers restore volume in deeper folds like nasolabial lines. Many patients benefit from combining multiple approaches. Your provider will assess the type and depth of your wrinkles and recommend the most effective plan.

Botox typically lasts three to four months. Dermal fillers last six months to two years depending on the product and treatment area. CO2 laser resurfacing results can last several years because the treatment stimulates long-term collagen remodeling. RF microneedling results build over a series of sessions and can last a year or more with maintenance.
