FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What Causes Lines & Wrinkles?

Fine lines and wrinkles on the skin often result from the natural drop in collagen and elastin production that occurs with age. These two substances are critical for keeping skin firm and youthful. As levels start to decline, lines and wrinkles can begin to form. Their appearance can also be exacerbated by the following:

• Excess sun exposure that causes damage to the skin and negatively impacts collagen production
• An unhealthy diet that fails to give the skin the nutrients it requires
• Repetitive expressions such as frowning or squinting

What Are the Most Common Types of Lines & Wrinkles?

Lines and wrinkles are most apparent on the face, and there are many specific areas where they can form. Some of the most common types include:

• Crow’s feet
