Ageing and Wrinkles

Ageing can lead to wrinkles due to regular facial muscle contractions and exposure to environmental factors such as sunlight, smoking and pollution. Skin wrinkles form as we age. They usually begin around the eyes, on the forehead and on the lips. Ageing causes wrinkles. When you smile, concentrate, squint or frown, your face shrinks. After years of regular contraction and exposure to sunlight, smoking and pollutants, lines and wrinkles appear. As you age, collagen and elastin decrease and your skin loses its firmness and suppleness.
