Fine lines and wrinkles are often the first noticeable signs of skin aging, commonly appearing as crow’s feet, laughter lines, frown lines, forehead lines, nose-to-mouth lines (nasolabial folds), and lip lines.
Genetics and lifestyle choices can influence the rate at which these lines develop, with many people starting to see shallow creases around the age of 25-30. Collagen and elastin are proteins that naturally exist within the skin. As we age, these substances diminish, causing the skin to lose its firm, full, and youthful appearance. Over time, these lines become deeper and more prominent as the skin continues to weaken. Areas more exposed to the sun are often the first to develop lines and wrinkles, as UV rays accelerate the breakdown of collagen and elastin.
Fine lines and wrinkles are a natural part of the aging process, influenced by several factors:
1. Genetics and Lifestyle Choices: These can determine how quickly lines and wrinkles develop. Many people start to see shallow creases emerging around the age of 25-30.
2. Collagen and Elastin: These proteins naturally exist within the skin and are essential for maintaining its firm, full, and youthful appearance. As we age, collagen production slows down, and elastin weakens, leading to a loss of skin structure and the formation of deeper, more prominent lines over time.
3. Sun Exposure: Areas exposed to the sun are often the first to develop lines and wrinkles. UV rays accelerate the breakdown of collagen and elastin, with sunbeds also contributing to fine lines and wrinkles due to high UVA exposure.
4. Lifestyle Factors: Heavy alcohol intake, exposure to chemicals, and smoking can all accelerate the development of fine lines and wrinkles.
There are many effective treatment options available to treat wrinkles. Treatments range from topical non-invasive procedures to surgical intervenion. Common treatments:
Anti wrinkle injections are injected into the facial muscle that is causing the fine line or wrinkle. They works by restricting muscle movement in the injected areas, helping soften fine lines and wrinkles over a period of time. It’s not permanent and lasts up to 4 months and requires routine treatment to maintain results. By eliminating the muscle contractions, fine lines and wrinkles are not able to contract therefore stopping the lines from deepening. Anti Wrinkle Injections are not a one off solution and other therapies may be required for desired wrinkle free results depending on the severity of the lines.
Anti Wrinkle injections are more commonly used in the upper portion of the face:
However its also used to treat many areas of the face such as
Anti Wrinkle injections have many uses for cosmetic purposes to enhance and soften features. When having Anti Wrinkle injections it is recommended to seek a professional doctor, dentist or nurse as this is a prescribed treatment. At NEU Clinic a face to face consultation is required to have any cosmetic procedure for suitability and medical screening.
