Fine Lines and Wrinkles

in Pittsburgh, PA

What Are Fine Lines and Wrinkles?

Fine lines and wrinkles are visible signs of aging, often appearing on the face, neck, and hands. Fine lines are typically shallow, while wrinkles are more prominent folds or creases in the skin. They form as the skin loses collagen, elastin, and moisture, all of which contribute to skin’s youthful, plump appearance. Environmental factors and lifestyle choices can intensify their formation.

What Are the Causes of Fine Lines and Wrinkles?

Aging

Collagen and elastin loss with age leads to skin creases.

Sun Exposure

UV rays damage skin layers, accelerating wrinkles.

Facial Expressions

Repeated movements create permanent lines over time.

Dehydration

Lack of moisture diminishes elasticity, forming lines.

Smoking

Toxins reduce blood flow and oxygenation of tissues, impacting collagen and elastin production, speeding up wrinkle formation.
