noun
wrinkle reduction; wrinkle removal
Refers to the act or process of reducing or eliminating wrinkles, especially in skin care or fabric care. The medical term 'rhytidoplasty' is a specialized equivalent.

しわ取りの施術を受けるかどうか迷っています。

Full kanji spelling; the character 皺 is not a jōyō kanji, so this form is less common.
All-katakana spelling; may appear in product names or stylized writing, but not a standard written form.
しわ伸ばし focuses on smoothing out wrinkles (often with an iron or steamer), while しわ取り is a broader term for wrinkle removal or reduction, including cosmetic treatments.
Compound of しわ (wrinkle) and 取り (taking, removing), from the verb 取る (to take).
