Wrinkles are folds, creases, or ridges on the surface of your skin. They’re part of the aging process, but that doesn’t mean they you can’t lessen their appearance or even delay them as you age.
For most people, wrinkles initially appear in areas that naturally move during facial expressions. If you have a broad, gorgeous smile, you begin to notice folds running from the corner of your nose to your mouth. If you spend a lot of time outdoors, you may see creases around your eyes from squinting at the sun.
These factors can make wrinkles appear early or be more pronounced:
- Smoking
- Excessive UV exposure
- Alcohol use
- Chronic dry skin
Great skin care is one of the most effective ways to fight wrinkles. That begins with using high-quality products and taking an aggressive approach to using sunscreen every day.
Having regular facials is also essential and helps remove the outer layer of dead skin cells, bacteria, and other contaminants from your skin. Chemical peels can lessen the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, giving you a more youthful appearance.
Using a good moisturizer formulated for your particular skin type is also helpful. Many men and women use a lighter moisturizer with UV protection during the day then a heavier formulation at night.
