If only there was a skincare product that could make lines and wrinkles disappear overnight… because that would be magic, right?
Wrong. That would be 111SKIN’s brand-new Wrinkle Erasing Retinol Patches. And yes, they really do what they say on the tin.
Described by the brand as a ‘needle-free fix’, these revolutionary patches target expression lines and wrinkles through some impressive and innovative Microcone technology, clinically proven to give twice the absorption speed and depth of active ingredients than topical skincare.
And honestly, it’s just as impressive as it sounds.
Each patch is covered in needle-like structures- the Microcones, which dissolve upon contact with your skin’s natural moisture, quickly delivering a potent blend of Retinol, Vitamin C and a powerful Peptide complex.
Then, you simply leave the patches on overnight to do all the hard work for you.
111SKIN Wrinkle Erasing Retinol Patches
Described by the brand as a ‘needle-free fix’, these revolutionary patches target expression lines and wrinkles through some impressive and innovative Microcone technology that is clinically proven to give twice the absorption speed and depth of active ingredients than topical skincare.
Perfect for before a special occasion or as a potent and targeted smoothing treatment, the Wrinkle Erasing Retinol Patches are designed to help improve the appearance of deep-set wrinkles and skin elasticity, leaving your complexion looking tight, plump and smooth from the second you peel the patches away.
And honestly, every idea that comes from 111SKIN founder Dr Yannis Alexandrides MD we can get behind.
Pioneering the formulation of 111SKIN’s proprietary NAC Y²™ complex 11 years ago, Dr Yannis has created a whole new generation of reparative skincare in 111SKIN.
The complex is present in many of the brand’s best-selling products and is something that is exclusive to Dr Yannis and 111SKIN thanks to his and his 20+ years of surgical experience at his Harley Street Clinic.
Alongside this super compound which fortifies and protects skin from deep within to restore it to optimal health, the Wrinkle Erasing Retinol Patches have been formulated with Retinol, Sodium Hyaluronate, Ascorbyl Glucoside and Acetyl Octapeptide-3, each a key player in turning back the clocks on your skin.

But don’t just trust the big, complicated ingredient names; trust the clinical claims (spoiler: they’re pretty convincing).
In a clinical study of 21 participants using Antera 3D to evaluate wrinkles after a single use, the patches were proven to reduce deep eye wrinkles by 23% after just one use.
Additionally, using the product every two days for four weeks showed a 17% reduction in deep smile lines after just one use.
Those are the kinds of numbers we like to see.
And although the patches were only released at the start of the month, rave reviews have already started rolling in.

‘Erasing my frown lines just after one use and very simple to use overnight – I love this new product!’ One five-star reviewer wrote.
‘I absolutely loved that you could instantly see a difference in the depth and look of fine lines and wrinkles.’ Another added.
A third wrote: ‘After just one use, the lines, especially around my mouth, already looked diminished. I can only imagine what several uses will do. They are incredibly easy to apply and aren’t uncomfortable wearing overnight.’
