What Is It?
Fine lines and wrinkles are signs of skin aging, typically forming as collagen and elastin diminish. They typically begin as faint lines and gradually deepen, showing up around areas of expression, like the eyes, mouth, and forehead. Over time, collagen and elastin production in the skin slows down, leading to a loss of firmness and elasticity, which makes skin more susceptible to creasing. Common around the eyes, mouth, and forehead, they are influenced by genetics, lifestyle, and environmental factors.

Skincare routines with retinoids can help prevent wrinkles.
What Are The Causes?
Aging
Collagen loss reduces skin firmness.
Sun Exposure
UV rays damage collagen and elastin, leading to wrinkles.
Repetitive Facial Expressions
Frequent expressions cause lines to form.
Smoking
Smoking accelerates skin aging.
Poor Skincare
Lack of moisturization can worsen lines.
How to Prevent?
Botox
Botox treats wrinkles by temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles—lines formed by repetitive facial movements such as smiling, frowning, or squinting. The effects of Botox typically last three to four months, after which the muscles gradually regain activity, and repeat treatments are needed to maintain optimal results
Medical-Grade Skin Care
Medical-grade skin care such as Skinbetter AlphaRet Overnight Cream contains a unique ingredient combining retinol and alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) to visibly improve the appearance of lines, wrinkles, uneven tone, and texture with little to no irritation.
Use Sunscreen
Sun protection prevents collagen breakdown.
Stay Hydrated
Hydrated skin is more resilient.
