Under Eye Wrinkles
What are under eye wrinkles?
Under eye wrinkles refer to fine lines that develop on the skin in the areas underneath the eyes. The lines that develop are small, fine and a sign of natural ageing. The fine lines develop further over time as a result of facial movement where tiny muscles around the eye area contract, however they can become static as time goes on meaning they appear even when the face isn’t contracting. Although signs of ageing are natural, many can become unhappy with the appearance of fine lines on their face and look for anti-ageing treatments.
What causes under eye wrinkles?
As we grow older the collagen within our skin naturally decreases meaning our skin loses elasticity and signs of ageing can become apparent. Fine lines on the face and under the eyes can begin to appear from as early as 30 and there are a number of factors alongside natural ageing that contribute towards the cause of under eye wrinkles including:
- A poor skincare routine & no preventative treatments
- Exposure to the sun & harmful UV rays
- A diet that doesn't include antioxidants
- Smoking & alcohol consumption
- Genetics & the ageing process for your parents
It’s important to start early when caring for your skin to prevent signs of ageing. The above factors will actively increase signs of ageing & contribute to a decrease in collagen levels.
