What Causes a Wrinkle?
So what causes wrinkles? Here are some.
1. Sun
It’s a nice feeling to lie around the beach while being under the sun to achieve a perfect tan. But this is not a healthy feat especially if you do this oftentimes. Do you know that your skin’s exposure to sun’s rays is the number one cause for developing wrinkles? This doesn’t really have to happen at the beach. It can happen every day when it is day time. It doesn’t really have to be sunny for the sun to cause damage to your skin. Even if it is cloudy or seemingly like it is going to rain, as long as it is day time, you are not safe from the effects of the sun.
To counter this, you need to apply sunscreen to your skin, especially on the face and neck area and also your hands. This must be done whenever you will be going outside. To prove this claim, just look at your bottom. It sure doesn’t have wrinkles on it. What’s the reason for this? It doesn’t get exposed to the sun as often as your face and other parts of the body are.
2. Hormonal change
As you reach the menopausal age, you will have less estrogen production. This kind of hormonal change may lead to the changes on your skin as well. This includes the development of wrinkles. When this happens, you will also develop a decrease in the development of collagen. Its breakdown will affect your skin and will cause more wrinkles.
You cannot do anything about this as this is a normal occurrence. To slow the aging process, lead a healthy lifestyle. You can also take in vitamins and supplements. You must also find the right moisturizer and cream to help you with the dilemma you are facing.
3. Muscle use
There are things that you do and cannot help that also cause wrinkles to develop easily. These are the facial expressions that will cause the skin’s elasticity to diminish through time. This includes laughing, frowning, even crying and getting angry over simple things. If these are natural for you, then you cannot do anything about it. You just have to use creams and take the right vitamins to help you solve the problem.
4. Gravity
For sure, you know what this concept is. Are you surprised that this also causes wrinkles? This affects your skin by loosening such part. As a result, sagging occurs and also drooping eyelids.
You can try sleeping on your back to counter this problem. But only do this technique if you are comfortable in the said position. If not, then do not push through with this step. Having less sleep will do more bad effects on your skin. So the best thing here is to have enough rest.
Upon seeing a wrinkle on your face, do not freak out. Just remember that there are steps that you can do to help solve the problem. It is a must that you research about the topic before buying any product that you will use on your skin. You do not want to cause more harm when you only want to achieve a younger looking skin through time.
Different Treatments for Eye Wrinkles
You might not notice the effect when you are still young. But as you may have noticed, there are people who remain to look young even if they are already old and vice versa. This all boils down on how badly your skin is affected by such kind of exposure.
Less Worries
Come on, this is the day and age where there seems to be a solution to every problem. People can go to a specialist on whatever type of ailment they are experiencing and they will be given specific treatment and medicines for whatever it is they are experiencing.
So if you are worried about your under eyes wrinkles or your crows feet, you have a lot of options. But you must suit your choice according to what will make you happy and what you can afford. Are you going to try the latest creams and moisturizers or are you ready to take this case to the surgeon?
Here are some suggestions that you can follow if you are in this kind of dilemma.
1. Thermage is a new treatment for under eye problems like wrinkles. This will cause the skin on that area to tighten so that the lines will not be too much visible.
2. Botox as well as Restylane can act as dermal fillers. The good effects of these procedures can last for a good six months or more, depending on your skin type and the care that you allot for your skin to have.
3. Silk Touch and Fraxel lasers are known to eliminate wrinkles. You just have to ask your dermatologist if they will recommend the said procedures on the kind of skin that you have and with the situation of the wrinkles on your eyes.
4. Over the counter products like Vitamin C, Alphahydroxy and copper peptide are also known to lessen the unwanted lines around the eyes.
5. If you have additional problems like eye bags or the dark circles around your eyes, you can opt for Photo Genica and Lyra. These are part of the advancement of the technology that will remove the cause of the problem, which are the enlarged blood vessels. But if you don't want to take that route, you can always cover the problem with a good make up.
One thing that you have to remember when choosing what kind of procedure you are willing to undertake is that do you really need to do it. Such procedures may take a toll on your physical appearance when you are already too old to undergo through the same thing.
But the instant beauty will surely make you happy as you will see fast results. This will be beneficial if your appearance has something to do with your job or your means of income.
If you want to age gracefully and you are not the type to take drastic steps just so you can get rid of your eye wrinkles, then so be it. You can always tell people that those lines were brought about by the happy life that you have led and is still leading to this day.
