Lines and Wrinkles

Lines and wrinkles are skin imperfections that commonly occur as a person ages.

What Are Lines and Wrinkles: 

They are the result of a combination of factors, including a decrease in collagen production, loss of skin elasticity, and repeated facial movements. There are 2 types of wrinkles:

Dynamic wrinkles are caused by facial expressions and movement, such as frowning or squinting. Over time, these repeated movements can cause lines and wrinkles to form on the skin.

Static wrinkles, on the other hand, are visible even when the face is at rest. These are caused by a loss of collagen and elastin in the skin, as well as external factors such as sun exposure and smoking.

What Causes It?

Lines and wrinkles are a natural part of the aging process and can be caused by a combination of factors such as genetics, sun exposure, smoking, and repetitive facial movements. As we age, our skin loses collagen and elastin, which can cause the skin to become less elastic and more prone to wrinkles. Sun exposure and smoking can accelerate this process and contribute to premature aging. Additionally, repetitive facial movements such as squinting, frowning, and smiling can cause lines and wrinkles to form over time.

How Can It Be Treated? 

At Deemesh Oudit Plastic Surgery, our surgeon can help to treat lines and wrinkles by addressing the underlying causes of these skin imperfections. Facelifts can be used to lift and tighten the skin on the face and neck, which can smooth out wrinkles and restore a more youthful appearance. Eyelid surgery can be used to remove excess skin and fat from the upper and lower eyelids, reducing the appearance of crow’s feet and under-eye wrinkles. Our experienced plastic surgeons use the latest techniques and technologies to achieve natural-looking and long-lasting results, and we develop personalised treatment plans that address each patient’s unique needs and goals.
