Fine Lines and Wrinkles
Categories of fine lines and wrinkles?
Dynamic Wrinkles: Formed by repetitive muscle movements, such as facial expressions. Common examples include crow's feet and forehead lines.
Static Wrinkles: Result from the loss of collagen and elasticity in the skin over time. These wrinkles are visible even when the face is at rest.
Expression Lines: Caused by facial expressions and muscle movements, such as smiling or frowning.

Aging
The natural aging process leads to a decrease in collagen and elastin production, resulting in the development of wrinkles and fine lines. -
Sun Exposure
Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays accelerates skin aging, causing premature wrinkles and fine lines. UV rays break down collagen and elastin fibers. -
Facial Expressions
Repetitive facial movements, such as smiling, frowning, and squinting, can lead to dynamic wrinkles, especially around the eyes and mouth. -
Dehydration
Inadequate hydration can contribute to the appearance of fine lines, as well-hydrated skin appears plumper and smoother. -
Smoking
Smoking accelerates the aging process of the skin, promoting the formation of wrinkles, particularly around the mouth and eyes. -
Genetics
Genetic factors play a role in determining skin characteristics, including how prone an individual is to wrinkles and fine lines.
