Fine Lines & Wrinkles
Why they appear and how we treat them
Fine lines and wrinkles are a natural part of aging, but how early they appear and how deeply they settle depends on more than just time. As collagen and elastin decline, the skin becomes thinner, less resilient, and slower to repair itself. Repetitive facial movement, sun exposure, and lifestyle factors all influence how lines form and progress.
The Different Types of Lines & Wrinkles
Fine lines are shallow creases that typically appear around the eyes, mouth, and forehead. They are often more visible when the skin is dehydrated or fatigued and may soften with proper care.
Dynamic Wrinkles
Dynamic wrinkles form from repeated facial expressions such as smiling, frowning, or squinting. These lines appear with movement and can eventually become static if left untreated.
Static Wrinkles
Static wrinkles are visible even when the face is at rest. They develop as collagen loss, volume changes, and skin thinning progress over time.
What Causes Fine Lines & Wrinkles?
Fine lines and wrinkles often result from a combination of internal and external factors:
- Natural collagen and elastin loss
- Sun exposure without adequate SPF
- Repetitive facial muscle movement
- Dehydration and compromised skin barrier
- Lifestyle factors such as stress and smoking
How to Help Prevent Lines & Wrinkles
While aging is inevitable, premature wrinkling can be minimized by:
- Wearing broad-spectrum SPF daily
- Supporting collagen with medical-grade skincare
- Keeping the skin hydrated and balanced
- Avoiding aggressive exfoliation
- Starting preventative treatments early
