Wrinkles

Wrinkles are an inevitable sign of aging. Laughing, concentrating, squinting or frowning; whenever you move your face your muscles contract. After years of frequent contraction, combined with environmental and lifestyle factors - such as exposure to sunshine, smoking or pollution - lines and wrinkles begin to form. As we age, collagen and elastin in the skin begin to deplete, causing it to lose its natural firmness and elasticity.  Aging skin is a part of life, but there are some measures we can take to help slow the process down, such as:

• Wear sunscreen daily.
• Wear a wide-brimmed sun hat and sunglasses.
• Use skincare products containing anti-aging ingredients such as peptides and vitamin A.
• Avoid smoking.
• Invest in professional skin treatments which stimulate collagen production.
