Wrinkles—nobody's favourite part of ageing, right? Of course, wrinkles are a natural part of the ageing process, but that doesn't mean we should accept them without a fight! Those creases, folds, and ridges that appear on our skin over time can be caused by various reasons; let's take a closer look.
What Causes Wrinkles?
Age: Of course, it's inevitable, but why rush things? As we age, our skin loses collagen and elastin, which keep it firm and bouncy.
Facial Expressions: We love our laugh and smile lines, but with repeated facial movements, they etch more deeply into our skin and become more noticeable over time.
Sun Damage: Love the sun? Your skin might not agree. UV rays can prematurely age your skin, breaking down the collagen and elastin faster than you can say: Where's the sunscreen?
Smoking: It's a tough habit to break, and it’s not great for your skin. Smoking speeds up ageing and depletes vitamin C; we're sorry to say it's also a fast track to wrinkles.
Spotting the signs of wrinkles?
Fine Lines: These are the shallow lines that first appear where you show expression—around the eyes and mouth.
Deeper Furrows: These are the more noticeable lines you might find etched across your forehead or between your brows.
Sagging Skin: As skin loses its elasticity, it begins to droop; it’s not exactly the image we want to see reflected in the mirror.
Dryness: Without its natural oils, your skin might feel dry and papery.
Dehydration: Low on moisture, your skin can tighten up and make wrinkles stand out even more.
