Asymmetrical eyebrows? It may not be the eyebrows themselves.

Eyebrow position is influenced by a balance of muscles around the upper face.

The frontalis is the main muscle responsible for raising the eyebrows, while the glabellar complex and orbicularis oculi contribute to downward forces.

These muscles don’t necessarily work identically on both sides. Differences in muscle activity, recruitment and anatomy can all contribute to differences in eyebrow position.

Some asymmetry is completely normal. Most faces aren’t perfectly symmetrical and our muscles aren’t either.

So when you notice one eyebrow sitting higher than the other, the muscles underneath are part of the picture.

Realistic expectations need to be set before treatments proceed.

If a patients expectation doesn’t match the outcome of a treatment, they will usually be disappointed with the result.

Consultations aren’t just about discussing medical history and determining what treatments may, or may not be suitable for a concern. They assess a patients goals and understanding of what might actually be possible with treatment, whether something may or may not address their concern, and if a treatment can realistically achieve the result the patient is hoping for.

If a patient’s expectation doesn’t align with the outcome a treatment may produce, treatment should not proceed.

Practitioners must also be honest with patients and not simply treat, just because a patient presented to the clinic. Ethical standards come before treatment.

What actually happens to your skin as you age?

Skin ageing is much more than developing wrinkles.

Over time, changes occur across multiple layers and processes within the skin. From collagen and elastin fibres, to the structure of the dermis, cell turnover, and the skin’s ability to repair itself.

At the same time, external factors such as UV exposure, smoking and pollution can accelerate these changes.

This is why skin ageing doesn’t look exactly the same in everyone.

The rate and pattern of skin ageing varies between individuals and is influenced by factors including genetics, hormones, s*x, UV exposure and lifestyle.

So while ageing is inevitable, the way it appears, and how quickly those changes become visible, is highly individual.

Skin ageing is a process happening at multiple levels, long before we see it as a wrinkle.

Is your chin appearing shorter?

The appearance of the chin is influenced by several layers:

* Bone: The mandible can undergo age-related remodelling and resorption, which can alter the support and projection of the chin.

* Muscle: The mentalis sits at the front of the chin. When it contracts, it elevates the soft tissue and can contribute to chin dimpling and a more compressed appearance.

* Soft tissue: Changes in skin elasticity, fat distribution and the tissues surrounding the lower face can further alter the appearance of the chin.

And there’s another piece:

Your underlying jaw position and bite also play a role. A naturally recessed lower jaw (retrognathia), for example, can make the chin appear less projected, and that’s different from age-related change.

Facial ageing isn’t just about wrinkles.
It’s the changing relationship between bone, muscle and soft tissue.

Anatomy varies between individuals. These anatomical changes don’t occur in exactly the same way for everyone.

The sunscreen you applied this morning isn’t a one time application for the entire day.

Sunscreen needs to be reapplied because protection can be reduced over the course of the day, particularly with sweating, swimming, or rubbing.

Even without those things, sunscreen doesn’t have the same protection from morning until night.

For UV protection throughout the day, you must reapply.

If you’re outdoors, aim to reapply approximately every 2 hours, and sooner after swimming, sweating, or towel drying, following the directions on your sunscreen.

This is particularly important in Australia, where UV exposure can be significant, even when the weather doesn’t feel particularly hot, or on an overcast day.

Sunscreen isn’t just about preventing sunburn. Consistent UV protection is one of the most important things you can do to help prevent photoageing including hyperpigmentation, loss of elasticity and collagen breakdown, and most importantly, skin cancers.

If you’re investing in skincare and treatments to support your skin, don’t overlook one of the most important things you can do to protect your skin.

Apply it. Reapply it. Wear it consistently.

Seeing a line doesn’t automatically mean it needs treating. Your face is meant to have lines.

Faces move and express. They change with time. They develop lines, shadows and texture. These aren’t “flaws”. They’re the natural result of expression and aging over time.

Not every line needs treating.

Aesthetics isn’t about removing every sign of ageing, especially if your preference is natural-looking outcomes.

It’s about a practitioner understanding your concerns and expectations, explain why a feature is there, whether it is actually something that can be addressed, and if treatment may be appropriate.

Sometimes, the answer is no treatment.

Trying to remove every wrinkle and fold to chase “perfection” is unattainable and can often lead to unnatural-looking results.

Your nasolabial fold isn’t something that needs to be erased.

Nasolabial folds (often referred to as “smile lines”) are a normal part of facial anatomy. They aren’t simply a sign of ageing. You can see them in young people and even babies.

As we age, changes in bone, fat compartments, soft tissue position and muscle activity can alter how prominent the area becomes.

What some people call a “nasolabial fold” isn’t always the same thing. A nasal shadow, a deeper nasolabial fold and a superficial muscular crease can have very different anatomical contributors.

This is why the goal shouldn’t be to completely erase every line or fold.

Some facial folds are part of what makes a face look like a face.

The goal is understanding what is actually creating the feature, and knowing when it is better to respect the anatomy rather than try to eliminate it.

Static Lines vs Dynamic Lines

Not all lines on the face are the same. It’s important to understand the difference when it comes to wrinkle concerns.

• Static lines are visible even when the face is completely relaxed. These can develop over time from repeated dynamic movement, or reflect longer term changes in the skin itself.

• Dynamic lines appear with facial movement. Smiling, frowning, raising the brows. They’re caused by repeated muscle contraction and often soften, or disappear when the face is at rest.

A dynamic line can become a static line over time.

A personalised assessment can help understand your facial concerns. Link in bio to book a consultation.

One of the most important parts of any consultation is understanding what a treatment can, and can’t, realistically achieve.

Non-surgical skin treatments may help address many concerns, but they cannot replicate the structural changes that are possible with surgery.

Surgery can physically remove excess tissue, reposition tissues and address structural changes in ways that non-surgical approaches cannot.

That doesn’t make all non-surgical skin treatments “less effective”, they simply have different capabilities and limitations.

The right expectations are just as important as the treatment itself.

A good treatment plan isn’t about a practitioner saying “yes” to everything, or promising to achieve every concern. It’s about understanding what can realistically be achieved and deciding whether that aligns with your goals.

Jowls aren’t just loose skin.

They’re a visible sign of changes occurring throughout the lower face as we age.

As we age, the skin and soft tissues change position, facial fat compartments can change, retaining ligaments influence where tissue sits, the platysma muscle can influence downward movement of the lower face, and the underlying bone can also remodel.

All of these changes can contribute to the appearance of jowling.

And this is why treating a jowl isn’t always as simple as treating the area you can see.

Sometimes, skin laxity is a significant factor.
Sometimes, soft-tissue descent or changes in fat distribution contribute.
Sometimes, changes to the underlying facial structure play a role.
And sometimes, multiple factors are involved.

There isn’t one intervention that’s right for every jawline.

A proper facial assessment is about understanding why the jawline has changed rather than simply treating what you can see.

If you’re concerned about changes to your jawline, a personalised consultation can help determine what may be contributing and what options may be appropriate for you.
