Treat Fine Lines & Wrinkles
Several factors influence how our skin ages, including some that we can control to a degree, such as sun damage and smoking. Ultimately, however, the skin’s natural aging process leads to fine lines and wrinkles, but we can reduce these through nonsurgical treatments at our Maryville medical spa east of St. Louis.
There often isn’t a single best treatment for wrinkles and fine lines. Our aesthetic specialists at MidAmerica Medical Spa may recommend combining 2 or more nonsurgical procedures to produce comprehensive results by not only smoothing wrinkles but also restoring lost volume. These treatments can help reverse signs of aging caused by environmental factors, along with the intrinsic changes that occur when the skin loses its elasticity.
With so many treatments to choose from, it can be difficult to know how to address your concerns. We created our interactive treatment planner to help! Simply choose a condition you want to treat, and it will give you a list of possible treatment options with links to the details.

BOTOX (as well as Dysport®) reduces forehead wrinkles and lines, crow’s feet around the eyes, and vertical frown lines (elevens) between the eyes. These are called “dynamic wrinkles” because they’re caused by the repeated contraction of facial muscles when you change expressions.
Fillers such as JUVÉDERM®’s line of injectable gels help smooth fine lines and wrinkles by replacing lost volume. Most fillers are formulated to address specific types of wrinkles, such nasolabial folds and the fine lines around the mouth, such as smoker’s lines.
This innovative treatment can be customized to address various skin concerns, including fine lines and wrinkles. It both hydrates the skin and improves your overall complexion using a multi-step process that includes cleansing, exfoliation, and nourishing the skin with antioxidant-rich serums.
Our med spa specialists perform microneedling using the SkinPen®, an advanced device designed to stimulate your skin’s natural renewal process. This treatment creates precise micro-channels in the skin, activating the body’s healing response and boosting collagen production for smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin. For enhanced results, microneedling can be paired with PRX Derm Perfexion, a revolutionary treatment that delivers immediate aesthetic improvement and deep hydration—without downtime. Applied through a specialized massage technique and paired with a unique at-home skincare protocol, PRX combines hydrogen peroxide, 33% TCA, and kojic acid for a visible skin transformation.
One of the keys to getting a refreshed appearance is removing the skin’s dull outer layer. Microdermabrasion is another minimally invasive treatment that unclogs pores, removes dead cells, and exfoliates the skin.
