Wrinkles & Fine Lines
We understand that aging is a natural process that affects everyone, but that doesn’t mean you have to live with the signs of aging on your face.
As we age, our skin loses its elasticity and collagen, which results in the development of wrinkles and fine lines. These can be caused by a variety of factors, including genetics, sun damage, smoking, and environmental factors. Fortunately, there are many treatments available to help reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
Treatments
Pigmentation
Hyperpigmentation
Hyperpigmentation is a common condition that occurs when the skin produces excess melanin, resulting in dark patches on the skin. This can be caused by a variety of factors, including sun exposure, hormonal changes, and skin injuries. Our clinic offers a range of treatments to help address hyperpigmentation, including chemical peels, laser therapy, and topical treatments such as hydroquinone, retinoids and oral lightening medications.
Melasma
Melasma is a specific type of hyperpigmentation that is often triggered by hormonal changes, such as those that occur during pregnancy or with the use of certain medications. Melasma can be particularly challenging to treat, but our clinic has experience in managing this condition with a variety of treatments, including topical lightening agents, chemical peels, laser therapy and oral lightening medications
In addition to these specific conditions, our clinic also offers treatments for more general concerns with uneven skin tone and texture.
Our team is dedicated to helping you achieve your aesthetic goals in a safe and effective manner. We will work with you to develop a customized treatment plan that addresses your specific concerns and helps you achieve the clear, radiant skin you desire.

Treatment
Options of Wrinkles & Fine Lines
Wrinkles Reduction
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are another popular treatment for reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. This treatment involves injecting a gel-like substance into the skin to plump it up and fill in wrinkles and fine lines. At Dr KW Chan, we use dermal fillers to treat nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and to add volume to the cheeks and lips.
Fractional Laser
Fractional laser treatment is a non-invasive treatment that uses laser technology to stimulate collagen production in the skin. This treatment can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, as well as improve skin texture and tone. At Dr KW Chan, we use fractional laser treatment to treat fine lines around the eyes, mouth, and forehead.
Laser Toning
GentleMaxPro and Discovery PICO are laser technologies for cosmetic treatments. GentleMaxPro uses two wavelengths for hair removal, pigmentation reduction, and skin rejuvenation, while Discovery PICO delivers ultra-short pulses to treat pigmentation, acne scars, and wrinkles.
Radiofrequency
Thermage is a non-invasive cosmetic treatment that uses radiofrequency energy to reduce wrinkles and fine lines. The FDA-approved treatment stimulates collagen production and tightens the skin, resulting in a smoother, more youthful appearance. During the procedure, a handheld device is used to deliver radiofrequency energy deep into the skin, triggering collagen production and tightening the skin.
Chemical Peels
