Fine lines often appear before deeper wrinkles form, and treating them early can help keep skin looking smooth for years to come.
What Causes Fine Lines and Wrinkles?
Fine lines and wrinkles develop through a combination of repeated facial movement, a natural decline in collagen and elastin, and cumulative sun exposure over time.
- Dynamic vs. Static Wrinkles: Dynamic wrinkles form from repeated muscle movement, such as smiling or squinting, and are typically most visible during expression. Static wrinkles, on the other hand, remain visible even when the face is at rest, often the result of longstanding dynamic wrinkles combined with a loss of skin elasticity.
- Why Early Treatment Can Make a Difference: Treating fine lines before they become deeply etched can help prevent them from progressing into more prominent static wrinkles, which is why many patients begin treatment in their late twenties or thirties as a preventive measure.
