Wrinkles Treatment Wirral and Chester

What Are Wrinkles?

Wrinkles are folds and lines in the skin, which typically appear more frequently with age. Wrinkles can occur anywhere, but they commonly manifest around the eyes, forehead and around the mouth.

What Causes Wrinkles?

Wrinkles are a common sign of ageing. However, actions such as smoking, concentrating, squinting and frowning can leave their mark on your skin too. Whenever you move your face, your muscles contract and the skin is moved to create an expression.

Ageing 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.

How To Get Rid Of Wrinkles?

Wrinkles, though inevitable, needn’t be permanent. There are a number of professional skin treatments designed to address fine lines and wrinkles – and even help prevent them. These include anti-ageing injectable treatments designed to strip back ageing skin and encourage collagen production, other treatments can also help such as laser resurfacing, microdermabrasion and skin peels.

Surgical Treatments For Wrinkles

Wrinkles can be treated surgically via a procedure known as a facelift (or ‘rhytidectomy’). This involves a surgeon lifting up the loose skin on your face, pulling it tighter to help smooth out wrinkles and eliminate sagging. The operation can be carried out on your entire face or on targeted areas such as the brows or neck.

What Is Collagen And Elastin?

Collagen is a protein which is present throughout the body, especially in the connective tissues and the skin. It’s what gives our skin its structure and firmness. Elastin is also a protein. As its name suggests, its main characteristic is elasticity; it allows the skin to bounce back to its original smoothness after being stretched or contracted.
