Fine Lines and Wrinkles Management

Wrinkles are a natural part of ageing, and are most prominent on sun-exposed skin, such as the face, neck, hands and forearms. Although genetics mainly determine skin structure and texture, sun exposure is a major cause of wrinkles, especially for people with light skin. Pollutants and smoking also contribute to wrinkling.

Facial movements and expressions, such as speaking, squinting and smiling, initially create facial lines which are called dynamic movement lines, with time, age and reduced collagen and elastin in the skin the dynamic lines become etched in the skin and are typically called static lines and wrinkles.

The mouth area known as the peri-oral region (from under the nose to the tip of the chin) includes lines that form both above and below the lips and is one of the first areas on our face that will develop multiple wrinkles that can significantly age our appearance. Part of this is due to the thinness of the skin around the mouth and the type of musculature under the skin. In addition to the wrinkles around the mouth, the lips also become thinner giving the appearance of dry dehydrated lips.

Topical skin treatments must include quality prescription retinoids, madecassoside and DMAE. In addition, products that contain pigment inhibiting functions, and vitamin C can also be used to treat the perioral area.
