How to Get Rid of Fine Lines and Wrinkles
Fine lines and wrinkles around your eyes and on other areas of your face may be a cause for concern, since we all want to look and feel our best. Why do these lines develop and what can be done to correct them?
Why Fine Lines and Wrinkles Develop
- Cosmetic surgeons categorize the changes in our skin as intrinsic or extrinsic changes. Intrinsic changes are caused by genetics and aging.
- Extrinsic changes can be due to a variety of factors, including sun exposure, hormonal changes, tobacco use, stress and poor nutrition. In fact, experts believe sun exposure is the cause of as much as 80% of the changes that lead to fine lines and wrinkles.
The skin around the eyes is the thinnest skin on our bodies. Composed of three distinct layers, the epidermis, the dermis and the subcutaneous tissue, our skin does an excellent job of shielding us from the elements. But because of the intrinsic and extrinsic changes, fine lines, wrinkles, brown spots and a loss of elasticity occur. When wrinkles develop around the eyes, between the eyebrows and on the forehead, we look older than we feel, and sometimes we can appear angry, sad or fatigued even though we feel fine.
Obagi Nu-Derm System
One highly effective option to treat aging skin and restore a more youthful appearance is the Obagi Nu-Derm System. This prescription-strength skincare regimen reverses changes in the skin caused by aging. Individuals who receive this groundbreaking skin treatment report younger, smoother looking skin because the Obagi Nu-Derm System increases collagen production. It also reduces wrinkles and brown spots. This leading skincare system can be used in the comfort of your home.
Botox® Cosmetic
Botox® Cosmetic is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures in the world due to its effectiveness in reducing or eliminating facial lines and the speed of results when compared to other options. When injected correctly by a highly trained cosmetic surgeon, Botox® works by relaxing overactive facial muscles. This prevents the repeated facial expressions which cause wrinkles such as frown lines.
Botox®, the Obagi Nu-Derm System, Restylane (a dermal filler) and blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), are effective and affordable procedures for restoring a more youthful appearance.
