Fine Lines and Wrinkles

IN CARLSBAD, CA

What Are Fine Lines and Wrinkles?

Fine lines and wrinkles are creases and folds that develop in the skin as we age. Fine lines are shallow and often appear around the eyes and mouth, while wrinkles are deeper and more pronounced. These signs of aging result from reduced skin elasticity and collagen production. They can make the skin look older and less smooth. Treatments aim to smooth these lines and rejuvenate the skin.

What Are the Causes of Fine Lines and Wrinkles?

Aging

As we age, our skin loses its ability to produce collagen and elastin, leading to sagging and wrinkles.

Sun Exposure

UV rays accelerate aging by breaking down skin fibers, leading to wrinkles.

Facial Expressions

Repeated movements such as frowning, smiling, or squinting can cause fine lines to form over time.

Smoking

Nicotine and other chemicals in cigarettes reduce blood supply to the skin, speeding up the aging process.

Dehydration

When the skin is not adequately hydrated, it can become dry and more prone to developing fine lines and wrinkles.
