■ Causes and types of wrinkles
Let's take a look at the causes and types of wrinkles.
Causes of wrinkles
The main causes of wrinkles are,Aging and ultraviolet raysIt is. Wrinkle-free skin has sufficient water and collagen in the dermal layer to maintain firmness, elasticity, and moisture. However, when the skin is affected by aging or other factors, its functions deteriorate and tissue imbalance occurs, resulting in the formation of wrinkles. In addition, aging and UV rays are not the only causes of wrinkles. Lifestyle factors such as dry skin due to lack of moisturizing, stress, and smoking can also cause the formation of furrows.
Types of wrinkles
There are several types of wrinkles, including fine wrinkles, expression wrinkles, and dermal wrinkles. The characteristics of each are summarized below.
Fine wrinkles
- Shallow, fine wrinkles on the epidermis
- Also known as crinkled wrinkles
- Around the mouth, cheeks, under the eyes, and at the corners of the eyes.
- Improvement can often be expected in a short period of time

This includes deterioration of skin elasticity and subcutaneous fat drooping, as well as deterioration of the muscularis propria, which lies beneath the subcutaneous fat. Some cosmetic procedures not only improve these sagging areas, but also prevent them from forming in the future.
