If you have been researching anti-wrinkle treatments, you have probably come across pricing listed as "1 Area", "2 Areas", or "3 Areas" - but what does this actually mean?
One of the most common questions we receive is whether areas refer to the amount of product used. In reality, areas refer to specific muscle groups being treated rather than a fixed quantity of product.
What Is An Anti-Wrinkle Treatment Area?
Treatment areas are regions of facial movement where carefully targeted treatment can help soften dynamic lines and reduce unwanted muscle activity.
A treatment area refers to one anatomical region of movement.
The three most commonly treated areas are:
Forehead Lines
Forehead treatment focuses on the horizontal lines that develop across the forehead when raising the eyebrows.
Treatment aims to soften visible expression lines while maintaining natural movement.
Common concerns:
Horizontal forehead lines
Preventative treatment
Tired appearance
Deepening expression lines
Frown Lines (Glabellar Area)
Frown lines are the vertical lines that form between the eyebrows and are often referred to as "11 lines".
Treatment can help reduce the appearance of strong muscle movement and soften a tense or tired appearance.
Common concerns:
Vertical frown lines
Strong muscle activitiy
tired appearance
Preventative treatment
Crow's Feet
Crow's feet at the fine lines that appear at the outer corners of the eyes during smiling and facial expression.
Treatment can soften these lines while preserving natural expression.
Common concerns:
Fine eye lines
Expression lines
Preventative ageing
Refreshed appearance
What Does 1 Area Mean?
A 1 area treatment focuses on an individual region only.
Patients commonly choose:
Forehead Lines
Frown Lines
Crow's Feet
Ideal for early prevention or targeting one specific concern.
What Does 2 Areas Mean?
A 2 area treatment combines two regions for a more balanced result.
Common combinations include:
Forehead + Frown Lines
Frown Lines + Crow's Feet
Foread Lines + Crow's Feet
Suitable for patients wanting more balanced upper-face rejuvenation.
What Does 3 Areas Mean?
A 3 area treatment includes:
Forehead Lines
Frown Lines
Crow's Feet
This is our most popular anti-wrinkle treatment as it creates a refreshed appearance across the entire upper face while maintaining natural expression.
Does Everyone Need The Same Amount?
No.
Every patient has different:
Facial anatomy
Muscle strength
Treatment goals
Previous treatment history
Natural facial movement
This means treatment is always personalised rather than based on a standard dose.
What Happens During A Consultation?
Your consultation includes assessment of:
✓ Facial movement
✓ Muscle strength
✓ Skin quality
✓ Existing lines
✓ Desired outcome
Following assessment, a personalised treatment recommendation is created.
