In one of my previous posts, I wrote on the
causes of premature wrinkles. This article is somewhat similar to that article
only that its focus is facial wrinkles.
Facial wrinkles are those wrinkles that
develops around the face. They are part of the natural process of aging. We
cannot run from them as they will certainly occur as we grow older. And the
more older we get, the more visible they become.
Sometimes, facial wrinkles can develop on
the face faster than normal. When this occur, its usually referred to as
premature facial wrinkles.
There are several causes of premature
facial wrinkles, below are some of them.
- Facial movement: facial movement around
the face could cause premature wrinkles to occur around the face. These could
be frowning, grimacing, raising your eye lashes causing fold around the
forehead, and so on.
- Exposure in the sun: Exposing your face
to the sun’s rays without protection could cause premature wrinkles on the
face.
- Smoking: Smoking of cigarette generally
cause wrinkles on the skin including the face. It increases the aging process
of the skin, thus leading to the formation of premature wrinkles on the face. Areas of the face where these wrinkles are
obvious are the lips and mouth. This often known as or referred to as ‘‘smokers’
lines’’.
-
Sleeping n one side of your face: When
you sleep on one side of your face, everyday it leads to the quick formation of
wrinkles around those areas of your face that touches the pillow. The weight of
your head on the pillow creates pressure which causes fold to develop.
- Yoyo dieting: Generally, when you lose
weight or lose facial weight, there is the tendency for your skin to sag. When
you repeatedly gain weight and lose weight around the face, it causes or leads
to premature wrinkles, , this is known as yoyo dieting. Repeated weight gain
causes your skin to stretch.
