Lines & Wrinkles (Anti‑Ageing)

Anti-Ageing

The visible signs of ageing — fine lines, volume loss, uneven tone, and a loss of that youthful bounce — are one of the most common concerns clients bring to Eye and Face Clinic. Whether you are noticing your first fine lines in your thirties or are looking to address more established signs of ageing later in life, the impact on confidence is real, and effective, expert help is available.

At Eye and Face Clinic, our expert Aesthetician Gillian Power offers a comprehensive, personalised approach to anti-ageing — addressing not just the visible lines and laxity, but the underlying loss of collagen, elastin, and cellular renewal that drives them. Using a carefully curated combination of professional treatments, medical-grade skincare, targeted supplements, and expert homecare guidance, Gillian works with every patient to create a plan to soften, strengthen, and restore their skin.

Anti-Ageing

Understanding skin ageing

Skin ageing is far more than a surface-level concern. From our mid-twenties onwards, collagen and elastin production naturally begins to slow, cell turnover decelerates, and the skin’s ability to retain moisture and bounce back gradually declines. Over time, this shows up as fine lines, a loss of firmness, dullness, and an uneven texture and tone.

Ageing skin can present in many different ways — from early fine lines and dehydration to more established wrinkles, volume loss, sagging, and pigmentation. Each presentation requires a different approach, and this is why a professional assessment is so important. What restores one person’s skin can do very little for another’s.

Signs of ageing commonly appear first around the eyes, forehead, and mouth — the areas of most repeated movement — before extending to the cheeks, neck, and décolletage, and can affect people of all skin types from their late twenties onwards.

Our Aesthetician Gillian takes a thorough, whole-skin approach to ageing skin. Every patient begins with a detailed consultation and professional skin analysis — understanding your skin type, the nature and stage of your skin ageing, your current routine, lifestyle factors, and any previous treatments you have tried.

From there, Gillian builds a personalised treatment plan that combines professional in-clinic treatments, medical-grade skincare, and targeted internal supplementation — working together to rebuild collagen, restore radiance, and soften the visible signs of ageing over time.

One of the most important elements of Gillian’s approach to ageing skin is the recognition that fine lines and loss of firmness are not just a surface problem. They are driven by internal factors — declining collagen synthesis, oxidative stress, hydration levels, and the natural cross-linking of collagen fibres — that topical products alone can never fully address.

Skinade is a multi-award-winning anti-ageing collagen drink, taken daily, that works from the inside to boost the body’s own production of collagen and hyaluronic acid. It helps to reduce oxidative stress, prevent the cross-linking of collagen fibres that causes fine lines, and increase hydration, resulting in visibly firmer, smoother, more radiant-looking skin.

Gillian offers a range of evidence-based professional in-clinic treatments, each carefully selected and adapted for ageing skin:

Chemical Peels

SkinPen Microneedling 

Secret Pro radiofrequency microneedling

CO2 Laser

Professional treatments deliver powerful results, but the single most important factor in managing ageing skin day to day is what you do at home. Gillian prescribes fully personalised homecare routines using medical-grade skincare brands available exclusively through certified professionals — with formulations specifically designed for ageing skin, including targeted cleansers, antioxidant serums, retinoids and peptides, hydrating moisturisers, and broad-spectrum sun protection.

Because every ageing skin is different, Gillian will always tailor the homecare routine precisely to your skin — not a generic anti-ageing profile.

For many patients, it is not just the fine lines themselves but the accompanying loss of volume, dullness, and pigmentation that continue to affect confidence. Gillian addresses these concerns as a key part of every anti-ageing treatment programme, using a combination of chemical peels, SkinPen Microneedling, and targeted brightening homecare to restore firmness, radiance, and an even, youthful-looking complexion.

Gillian takes a staged, structured approach to ageing skin — understanding that effective treatment takes time and that the right sequence matters enormously:

  • Step 1 — Assess and understand — a detailed skin consultation to identify skin type, ageing triggers, and the current state of the skin
  • Step 2 — Treat from within — introduce supplements to begin rebuilding the collagen matrix and addressing hydration and oxidative stress from the inside out
  • Step 3 — Renew and refine — professional treatments and chemical peels to accelerate cell turnover, soften fine lines, and improve tone
  • Step 4 — Build and balance — a personalised homecare routine to support the skin barrier, boost collagen, and protect against further damage day by day
  • Step 5 — Restore and rebuild — targeted treatments including SkinPen Microneedling to address firmness, texture, and volume
  • Step 6 — Maintain and protect — ongoing maintenance treatments, homecare, and supplements to keep the skin firm, radiant, and healthy long-term

You are not alone — and there is real help available

Ageing is one of the most universal skin concerns in the world, and yet the right approach to it is still widely misunderstood. Gillian’s approach is one of genuine understanding, compassion, and clinical expertise. She knows that ageing skin affects far more than just appearance — and she is committed to helping every patient achieve the firm, radiant, confident skin they deserve.
