Fine Lines & Wrinkles

• Fine lines: These are shallow creases that appear on the surface of the skin. They’re often the first signs of aging.
• Wrinkles: These are deeper, more noticeable creases caused by a breakdown of collagen and elastin.

• Sun damage: This is the number one culprit! Sun exposure breaks down collagen and elastin, leading to wrinkles.
• Loss of collagen and elastin: As we age, our bodies naturally produce less of these proteins, which give skin its plumpness and elasticity.
• Facial expressions: Repeated facial movements can lead to wrinkles over time, like crow’s feet around the eyes.
• Smoking: Smoking reduces blood flow to the skin, which can accelerate wrinkling.
• Dehydration: Dry skin is more prone to wrinkles.
