What You Need To Know About Wrinkles and Wrinkle Treatment

Wrinkles are a normal part of aging, caused by the loss of moisture and elasticity. Instead of your skin returning to normal after showing emotion, wrinkles begin to show around the lines of emotion. Common wrinkles you may see include:

• Crow’s feet - the wrinkles radiating from the corners of your eyes
• Glabella - the wrinkles between your eyebrows
• Furrows - the wrinkles across your forehead
• Smile lines - the vertical wrinkles running from your nose to your mouth

Over-the-counter wrinkle creams may help somewhat, but for smooth skin that lasts, you should visit your dermatologist, who may recommend:

• Wrinkle relaxers including Botox - these substances are injectables that work by temporarily “freezing” the muscles and nerves at the injection site
• Dermal fillers including Juvederm and Restylane - are also injectables that work by plumping up your skin and replacing lost volume
• Chemical peels - these use mild fruit acids on the skin to remove dead skin cells, resurfacing and revealing healthy, younger-looking skin
• Laser resurfacing - this treatment uses heat and light energy to resurface your skin, renewing and rejuvenating your skin

These are just a few of the treatments available from your dermatologist to help you look your best. You deserve to look great at any age, and your dermatologist can help.
