Over the years, the skin loses collagen and elastin, resulting in the appearance of the first fine wrinkles. These lines are often one of the first signs of aging, appearing in areas such as the forehead , around the eyes (crow's feet), around the mouth (barcode lines), and on the neck .
Factors such as sun exposure, stress, pollution, and lifestyle habits accelerate this process, making wrinkles more visible. Fortunately, with Sciton 's laser technologies , available at the Institute... At Face Mi, in Braga , it is possible to reverse these signs and restore younger, healthier skin.
In this article, we explain the main causes of fine wrinkles and how BBL HEROic™, Halo™, ClearSilk™, ProFractional™, and Contour TRL™ lasers can be an effective solution for smoothing the skin and stimulating its regeneration.
What are fine lines and why do they appear?
Fine wrinkles are small, superficial lines that appear due to loss of skin hydration and elasticity. They can appear naturally with aging or be accelerated by external factors.
Main Causes of Fine Wrinkles
Natural aging – Skin loses collagen and elastin, resulting in the formation of fine lines.
Excessive sun exposure – UV radiation damages the skin's support fibers, accelerating the appearance of wrinkles.
Repetitive movements – Constant facial expressions, such as smiling or frowning, contribute to the formation of dynamic lines.
Dehydration and poor lifestyle habits – Alcohol and tobacco consumption, along with lack of hydration, affect skin quality.
Decreased hyaluronic acid production – As skin ages, it loses its ability to retain water, becoming thinner and more prone to wrinkles.
Now that we know the main causes, it is essential to learn about the effective solutions available at the Face Mi Institute.
