How do Wrinkles Form?
Maintaining the appearance of healthy and fresh skin is important to many people. When wrinkles develop, they can make an individual appear much older than they actually are. Although it is impossible to completely rid your skin of wrinkles, understanding how they are formed may help you minimize their appearance and avoid deeper, more noticeable wrinkles.
If you or someone you love is interested in wrinkle treatment, consulting with a skin care professional may be helpful. At Dermagenix, the Houston medical spa, our team of skin care specialists and medical professionals may be able to help you understand the needs of your skin and how you can carefully craft a skin care routine to treat your problem areas. Contact our offices today at 713-662-3376 to speak to a representative about scheduling a consultation.
Causes of Wrinkles
Although many people believe wrinkles are a surface problem, it is actually the degeneration of the second layer of skin that causes them to form. As people age, the binding elements of the skin are worn down or are produced in decreasing quantities leading to sagging and potentially wrinkled skin. Although this is not naturally preventable, there are some factors that may accelerate the appearance of wrinkles, including:
- Failure to exercise regularly
- Excessive exposure to sunlight or other UV rays
- Unbalanced hormone levels
- Smoking
- A diet without the right balance of vitamins and nutrients
