While in your glory days, your skin is young, smooth and wrinkle-free. As time marches on, those smile lines become permanent lines that are nothing to smile about, and smoker's lines are enough for anyone to kick the habit. Eventually, more lines become etched into our skin which increase due a number of factors such as age, environment, and yes, unfortunately, smiling and smoking.
There are two main types of wrinkles:
Dynamic Wrinkles
Dynamic wrinkles occur naturally on the face when we are animated. We smile, we laugh, we cry, we frown; we are, after all, human. As we get older, collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid decrease, resulting in loss of elasticity and structure of the skin, and some of those dynamic wrinkles can eventually develop into static wrinkles.
Static Wrinkles
Static wrinkles are essentially permanent lines on the face caused by years of facial expressions and daily living such as smoking and sun exposure and simply by aging. At 8th Sense we will offer you scientifically proven anti-wrinkle advice on how to keep wrinkles at bay.
Types of Static Wrinkles
- Forehead wrinkles and frown lines
- Crow's feet and smile lines
- Tear troughs
- Nasolabial lines
- Smoker's lines and perioral lines
- Marionette lines
- Chin wrinkles
- Neck wrinkles
