Why do wrinkles develop?
Age-related wrinkles develop as an inevitable result of the passage of time. The skin ages, loses firmness and collagen levels decrease. It becomes thinner, drier and less elastic.
Over time, the facial expressions we make repeatedly begin to appear as fine lines and later as wrinkles.
Other factors can also accelerate premature skin ageing, particularly sun exposure, cold weather, a poor diet, lack of hydration, smoking, stress, pollution, etc.

What is the best treatment for wrinkles?
There is no single treatment, but rather a combination of several, and the best treatment should be personalised for each case, taking into account factors such as the type of wrinkles and skin quality.
We have access to the best laser technologies (or other devices), fillers, collagen stimulators and neuromodulators for wrinkles, so in each case we carefully assess the expected outcome in terms of effectiveness, safety and duration in order to choose the most appropriate treatment.
Ribe Clinic treatment to remove or reduce wrinkles
At Ribe Clinic, each personalised wrinkle treatment protocol starts with the fundamentals, combining several techniques when necessary to achieve the best result, selected according to the condition of the patient’s skin:
Stimulate collagen
Remove or soften wrinkles naturally without injections by stimulating collagen in the middle and deeper layers of the skin (papillary and reticular dermis):
- Fraxel and Frax non-ablative fractional laser
Indicated for patients with mild wrinkles or who want to prevent and delay their appearance. It is suitable for patients of any skin phototype (skin colour), as heating to 45º means that the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation is very low. - CO2 ablative fractional laser
Indicated for skin with moderate to severe wrinkles or a high degree of solar elastosis, in other words, severe facial ageing caused by sun exposure. It is best performed on skin phototypes 1–3, ranging from very fair to moderately pigmented skin. - Resolve picosecond fractional laser
Indicated for mild and moderate wrinkles. It is the ideal laser for all skin phototypes, but particularly for Asian skin types.
Relax the muscle
Treat facial wrinkles by relaxing the muscle using injections of substances that block or reduce facial muscle movement
Fill wrinkles
Restore volume lost in the folds created by wrinkles using hyaluronic acid fillers.
