Lines & Wrinkles Treatment in Ravernet

People travel to NUA Aesthetic from Ravernet for wrinkle reduction because the clinic is deliberately small. One nurse, one room, and appointments that are not stacked back to back.

In short: a nurse-led consultation and treatment plan for expression lines, delivered with medical precision and a focus on keeping your face moving naturally. Lauren will tell you if it is not the right treatment for you, which happens more often than you might expect.

Appointments run from a private home studio in Carryduff. Ravernet clients often book alongside neighbours from Ballyskeagh and Tullynacross, and parking is straightforward.

Serving Ravernet and the surrounding area

Lauren is a registered Children's Nurse who graduated with First Class Honours from Northumbria University, and holds CIDESCO and ITEC qualifications in beauty therapy. That combination is unusual, and it is why wrinkle reduction here is treated as a clinical decision first and a cosmetic one second. Ravernet clients see the same practitioner at every appointment.

What Lines & Wrinkles involves

  1. Medical assessment

    A face-to-face consultation covering your medical history, what is bothering you, and what you want the outcome to feel like. Lauren assesses muscle strength and facial anatomy at rest and in movement.

  2. Your plan

    Areas are agreed together, with a clear explanation of what each one will and will not change. If a treatment is not right for you, or not right yet, you will be told that.

  3. Treatment

    The treatment itself takes around fifteen minutes. Most people describe it as a series of brief pinches rather than anything painful.

  4. Review

    A follow-up appointment two weeks later checks how the result has settled and allows any fine adjustment.

Who it suits

  • Forehead lines that stay visible when your face is at rest
  • Crow's feet at the outer corners of the eyes
  • Frown or eleven lines between the brows
  • Early signs of ageing you would rather address before they deepen
  • Anyone wanting a natural result that keeps normal facial movement

Lines & Wrinkles in Ravernet: common questions

Who will carry out my treatment?

Lauren, every time. She is an NMC registered nurse and CIDESCO qualified skin specialist. There is no rotating team, so Ravernet clients see the same practitioner from consultation through to review.

How do I book wrinkle reduction from Ravernet?

Booking is through the online system, where you can pick a consultation or treatment slot that suits you. Lauren confirms the appointment and sends the studio address. You can also call or message if you would rather talk it through first.

Is there any downtime?

Minimal. Most people return to normal activity straight away. Aftercare guidance is given at the appointment, and Lauren is contactable afterwards if anything concerns you.

How long do the results last?

Typically three to four months, though this varies between individuals. With regular maintenance many people find results last longer over time, as the treated muscles gradually become less strong.

Can I combine wrinkle reduction with other treatments?

Yes. Lines & Wrinkles sequences well with several other treatments, and Lauren will plan the order so each one has room to work rather than doing everything at once.

What are the appointment times like?

NUA runs by appointment only with flexible scheduling, including times outside standard working hours. That tends to suit clients travelling from Ravernet who would rather not take time off work.

Can I have this treatment if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?

No. These treatments are not offered during pregnancy or breastfeeding. This is covered during the medical assessment, and Lauren can suggest suitable alternatives such as skin-focused treatments in the meantime.

How long do results last?

Typically three to four months. Maintenance is discussed at your review so you can plan around it.

Can I combine it with other treatments?

Yes. It combines well with polynucleotides, Profhilo and microneedling, which work on skin quality rather than muscle movement. Lauren will sequence them sensibly rather than doing everything at once.

Who will be carrying out my treatment?

Lauren, an NMC registered nurse who graduated with First Class Honours from Northumbria University and holds CIDESCO and ITEC qualifications in beauty therapy. You see the same practitioner at every appointment.

How long does the appointment take?

Allow around an hour for a first appointment. That covers the medical assessment, the treatment itself, and time to go through aftercare properly. The injections take about fifteen minutes of that.

When will I see the results?

Results build gradually. Most people notice a change from around day three, with the full effect settled by around two weeks. That is why the review appointment is scheduled at the two-week mark.
