Wrinkles are lines or creases on the skin. Wrinkles are a natural part of growing older and they affect everyone. Wrinkles tend to appear on a person’s face in areas where the skin naturally folds during facial expressions such as smiling, frowning, or squinting. Wrinkles develop as the skin becomes thinner and less elastic over time. Fine lines appear first and the creases deepen when the skin begins losing the elasticity. Sun exposure, smoking, alcohol, genetic and environment factors increase the risk of developing wrinkles.
Types of wrinkles:
-
“Mimic Lines” Expression wrinkles is caused by repetitive expressions. Each time the facial muscle is used, a groove forms beneath the surface of the skin.
-
Elastotic wrinkles is a result of sun exposure causing loss of elastic structure within the skin. These lines are mostly seen on the cheeks, upper lip and base of the neck. Best preventive measure is good skincare regimen, sunscreen and avoidance of sun exposure and toxin exposure.
-
Gravitational wrinkles are effects of gravity caused by a deflation of the tissues above the wrinkle. Gravitational wrinkles appear as sagging skin. Deepening nasolabial folds and smile lines are the best example of gravitational wrinkles. These lines can be treated with fillers or botulinum toxin or muscle relaxing injections.
-
Compression wrinkles form when you compress your face against pillow while sleeping. This con be prevented by sleeping on the back or using specially designed pillow. Silk or copper infused pillowcases may help as well. It may also appear above the knees as skin ages.
-
“Static Lines” Atrophic wrinkles are parallel lines that appear on a furrowed forehead. Atrophic wrinkles occur from various causes like ageing or overuse of steroid cream. This is the most difficult type of wrinkle to correct.
In conclusion, anti-wrinkle creams, microdermabrasion, chemical peels, laser skin resurfacing, botox injection, fillers are options available to reduce and treat wrinkles. Lifestyle changes, such as moisturizing, sun protection, healthy diet, avoid smoking, less drinking alcohol may help prevent or delay wrinkles appearance.
