Fine lines and wrinkles are visible signs of skin ageing, resulting from intrinsic (chronological) and extrinsic (environmental) factors. These changes are among the most common concerns in clinical aesthetics, with clients seeking both prevention and correction.
Causes
- Intrinsic Ageing: Natural decline in collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid reduces skin’s firmness and elasticity.
- Photoageing: UV exposure accelerates breakdown of dermal proteins and induces irregular pigmentation.
- Repetitive Movement: Facial expressions (smiling, frowning) create dynamic lines that become static over time.
- Oxidative Stress: Free radicals from pollution, smoking, and poor diet damage skin structures.
- Dehydration: Lack of moisture accentuates fine lines, especially in thinner skin areas.
