HOW DR SKNN CAN TREAT BUNNY LINES & WRINKLES

Bunny lines, also known as ‘nasalis lines’ or ‘rabbit lines’, are wrinkles or creases that appear on either side of the nose, usually when you are smiling or making other facial expressions. They are caused by the contraction of the nasalis muscle, which is responsible for pulling the nostrils up when you smile. Bunny lines are a common sign of ageing, but they can be treated effectively with a variety of treatments.

At Dr Sknn Wilmslow Cheshire, we offer several effective treatments for reducing the appearance of bunny lines and wrinkles.

Anti-wrinkle injections are a popular and effective treatment for reducing the appearance of bunny lines. The injections contain a form of botulinum toxin, which works by relaxing the muscles around the nose, reducing the contraction of the nasalis muscle and smoothing out the bunny lines. The effects are not permanent, and the injections will need to be repeated every few months to maintain the desired results.

Anti-Wrinkle Injections
CO2 Fractional Ablative Laser

CO2 fractional ablative laser is a type of laser treatment that is used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, including bunny lines. The laser works by targeting the skin cells that are responsible for collagen production, encouraging the skin to produce more collagen and elastin for a smoother, firmer appearance. It can also help to reduce pigmentation, sun damage and acne scars.

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)

At Bunny Lines, we offer Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) treatments to help repair, regenerate and rejuvenate the skin. This procedure uses the patient’s own plasma, which is rich in growth factors and stem cells, to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, resulting in a firmer, smoother complexion.

Intense Pulsed Light

Our Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatments can improve the appearance of sun-damaged and pigmented skin, and reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and other signs of ageing. Our experienced team of medical professionals use advanced IPL technology to deliver a safe and effective treatment, for a refreshed and rejuvenated look.

Questions before booking

Frequently asked questions.

Why Do Bunny Lines Form?
Bunny lines are a common sign of ageing. As we age, our skin loses elasticity and can become more prone to wrinkles. Bunny lines can also form due to repetitive muscular contractions, such as those caused by scrunching up your nose when you laugh or make a funny face.
How to Prevent Bunny Lines?
The best way to prevent bunny lines is to take steps to protect your skin from the sun and keep your skin hydrated. Sun exposure can cause wrinkles and premature ageing of the skin, so it is important to use sunscreen and protective clothing when going outside. Additionally, it is important to keep your skin hydrated by using moisturisers, drinking plenty of water, and avoiding products that may be drying to the skin.
How You Can Treat Bunny Lines at Home?
When it comes to making sure your bunny lines are kept to a minimum, following a good skincare routine is key. Be sure to keep your skin hydrated and protected from the sun, and use products specifically designed to help reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
