Lines / Wrinkles

About the Concern

Lines and wrinkles are visible creases or folds in the skin that develop as a natural part of the aging process. Fine lines tend to appear first and are more superficial, while wrinkles are deeper creases that form over time.

Several Contributing Factors:

  • Aging: Thinner skin is more prone to creasing due to loss of collagen and elastin.

  • Sun Damage: Prolonged exposure to UV rays accelerates aging by breaking down collagen and elastin, leading to the premature formation of lines and wrinkles.

  • Facial Expressions: Repeated movements such as furrowing, frowning, squinting, or smiling can lead to the development of dynamic wrinkles over time.

  • Dehydration: Can cause the skin to appear dry and creased.

  • Lifestyle Factors: Smoking, poor diet, and inadequate sleep can also contribute to the premature appearance of lines and wrinkles. Sleep positions and genetics can be factors as well.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • There isn’t a single treatment that fully addresses fine lines and wrinkles, as multiple factors contribute to their formation. Optimal results are achieved with a multi-modal, comprehensive approach that addresses the various causes of lines and wrinkles, using a combination of treatments and personalized medical-grade skincare.

  • The timeline for improvement depends on the treatment plan recommended by your provider and the health of your skin. Some treatments show results immediately or within a few days, while others show gradual results over a few weeks to months as collagen production increases and skin health improves.

    A personalized skincare routine with medical-grade products can also help maintain and optimize results achieved with treatments used to address lines and wrinkles.
