We know that fine lines & wrinkles are inevitable as we age. However that doesn’t mean we can’t make them less noticeable or prevent more from appearing.
At City Laser Clinic, we offer a range of Medical Grade treatments to reduce fine lines & wrinkles in a subtle way. Rather than turning back time, we prefer to make your skin look its best at any age.
Fine Lines & Wrinkle Treatment
At City Laser Clinic, we have four treatments that reduce and prevent fine lines & wrinkles. These treatment options include; Rejuvenation Laser Treatments, Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling, CO2 Laser Treatments, and Cosmetic Injectables. Each of these treatments have a different way of enhancing the skin.
The treatment that is best suited for you will depend on your skin type, budget, and result expectations. This will be discussed with your skin therapist upon your initial consultation. To book a consultation, click here.
Treatment Summaries
1. Q-Switched Laser Treatments
Rejuvenation Laser Treatments using our Q-Switched laser provide a slow & subtle result. Whilst this may not be ideal for some, it is ideal if you are seeking a natural enhancement and/or preventative treatment. It’s also best if you want to improve your skin without others noticing you’ve had treatments.
This treatment is suitable for all skin types, has no downtime and only takes 15 minutes, making it an ideal ‘lunchtime’ treatment.
Recommended treatments: 10-12 weekly/fortnightly treatments
2. Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling
RF Microneedling will also provide a natural result, however will deliver results quicker than the Q-Switched Treatments. RF Microneedling is ideal if you already have deep lines, however can also be used as a preventative treatment.

Technology
We have chosen only medical grade, TGA-approved technology to treat your fine lines & wrinkles. The devices we have chosen include the Medlite Q-Switched ND:Yag, Vivace RF Microneedling, and Fraxis CO2. As mentioned previously, these technologies have their own way of renewing the skin.
The Medlite Q-Switched is known for its deep-penetrating ability, targeting the cells responsible for increasing skin cell turnover. The results from our Q-Switched laser are slow, however the end result is well worth the wait for natural-looking results.
For faster results, Vivace RF Microneedling and/or Fraxis CO2 Laser treatments are advised. Both of these treatments cause microdamage to the skin, allowing the skin to heal and repair itself. During the skin’s healing period, the skin will tighten itself, resulting in a reduction of your fine lines & wrinkles.
Downtime
Q-Switched Rejuvenation Treatment – No downtime, however we do not recommend applying makeup after the treatment to prevent further congestion.
Vivace RF Microneedling – 1 day downtime. Makeup can be applied the next day.
CO2 Laser Treatment – Two weeks downtime.
Cosmetic Injectables – 3 hours to 14 days for swelling to reduce.
