Lines & Wrinkles

Lines and wrinkles are natural signs of ageing that appear on our skin over time. They can be caused by a combination of factors such as sun exposure, lifestyle choices, and genetics.

At JBH Aesthetics, we offer consultations for the treatment of Lines & Wrinkles.

What Causes Lines and Wrinkles?

Lines and wrinkles develop as a result of a decrease in collagen and elastin production in our skin, leading to a loss of elasticity and firmness. Factors that contribute to the formation of lines and wrinkles include:

Ageing: As we age, our skin becomes thinner, less elastic, and more prone to wrinkling.

Sun exposure: Unprotected exposure to UV rays can accelerate the aging process and contribute to the development of wrinkles.

Facial expressions: Repeated facial movements, such as squinting or smiling, can create fine lines and wrinkles over time.

Smoking: Smoking can reduce blood supply to the skin, causing it to age prematurely and develop wrinkles.

Genetics: Some individuals are genetically predisposed to developing lines and wrinkles at an earlier age.
