Wrinkles are caused by aging, facial muscle contractions and sun damage. With age skin cells divide more slowly and skin inner layer “dermis” begins to this due to which it loses its elasticity, ability to hold moisture contributing to wrinkles.
Constant movement of the facial muscles including Smiling, frowning, squinting and other habitual facial expressions also causes wrinkles. Exposure to Sun also damages your skin that leads to wrinkles.
All these conditions break down the collagen and elastin- the naturally occurring proteins in the body that prevents aging. Wrinkles can be treated using following treatments:
Muscle Relaxants: Wrinkles which are caused by repeated motion for ex crows feet and frown lines can be treated using muscle relaxants that can relax the muscle that is contracted and causing the wrinkles.
Dermal Fillers: Wrinkles and fine lines caused by loss of collagen and elastin (Static wrinkles) can be plumped out using dermal fillers.
Medical Needling and Laser genesis: These help stimulate the skin to produce collagen and elastin by remodelling.
