Wrinkles also referred to as deep lines are caused by repeated facial expressions. They are found on the forehead, between the eyebrows or as crows feet around the eyes.
Causes
When the muscles underneath the skin are activated in a facial expression, the skin above ‘bunches up’. Over time, this constant creasing of the skin’s support layers (the dermis) results in permanent wrinkles
How are expression lines treated?
Wrinkle relaxing injections is the most effective way to treat expression lines. These injections temporarily deactivate the muscles responsible for causing the wrinkles.
You can even use sunscreen and collagen-boosting vitamins, such as retinaldehyde (vitamin A) and ascorbic acid (vitamin C). These products minimise the severity of wrinkles ensuring dermal structure to remain intact.
