When people start working, they often face stress and worries. This comes from the responsibilities of their job and dealing with colleagues in an office setting. Throughout the day, people experience different emotions—fun, laughter, happiness, irritation, anger, and even disappointment.
During these moments, we make many facial expressions, sometimes without even realizing it. These facial movements are the starting point for wrinkles on the face.
Pay attention to wrinkles on the face
Age, skin condition, sunlight, pollution, stress, eating habits, and sleeping habits all affect how soon or late we get wrinkles. In this article, I will talk about 2 types of wrinkles: wrinkles from frequent facial muscle movements and wrinkles from losing collagen as we age.
Forehead lines
One of the most common wrinkles for working adults is forehead wrinkles. They look like small lines or folds. At first, these lines only show when we raise our eyebrows or forehead during conversations with others.
Crow's feet (Eye wrinkles)
Next are wrinkles at the corners of the eyes, also known as crow’s feet. People who smile or laugh a lot may get these wrinkles sooner. Crow’s feet are caused by muscle movements around the eyes. At first, they are small and shallow, but over time, they can become longer and deeper.
Frown lines between the eyebrows
Many people get wrinkles between their eyebrows when they feel irritated, unhappy, or are thinking hard. These frown lines are usually two or three small lines between the eyebrows and make the face look angry or unfriendly.
Fixing forehead, eye, and frown lines
These types of wrinkles mentioned here come from frequent muscle movements over time. For working adults, if left untreated, these wrinkles can become permanent and harder to fix. This happens because the skin starts losing collagen, becoming dry and less firm.
To stop or slow down these wrinkles, a quick and effective solution is Botox injections. Botox temporarily relaxes the muscles that cause wrinkles. When the muscles move less, the wrinkles become less visible, and the skin looks smoother.
Anti-Wrinkle Botoxresults last 3–4 months, which is the normal time before it fades away naturally. During this time, people feel more confident and live happier without worrying about wrinkles.
Under-eye wrinkles
Now let's talk about another type of wrinkle—deep lines and creases under the eyes. These are different from dark circles, which can be covered by makeup. Under-eye wrinkles mostly happen when the skin loses its firmness and elasticity because of decreased collagen as we age.
Nasolabial fold (Smile lines)
Smile lines, or deep lines on the sides of the nose and mouth, happen when the skin in the cheek area sags and creates lines. These lines make the face look older and less friendly. Many working adults with these wrinkles feel less confident when meeting others.
Fixing under-eye wrinkles and smile lines
The cause of these wrinkles is not frequent muscle movement like forehead wrinkles, crow's feet, or frown lines. Therefore, Botox is not the right solution. Doctors usually recommend
Filler injections to fill in the deep lines and make the face look fuller and smoother.
Filler made from hyaluronic acid helps retain moisture and keeps the skin hydrated. It adds volume to the skin, replacing the collagen and fat that have been lost. After the filler is injected, the change can be seen immediately.
There are also treatments that tighten the skin and make it more elastic and youthful. These treatments use heat energy to stimulate the skin to produce new collagen, which improves the skin's structure, reduces wrinkles, and prevents deep lines from forming.
