No one is immune from the appearance of wrinkles under the eyes. Changes related to age, environmental factors, snacks - all this leads to premature aging of the skin. Many girls and women are thinking of ways to get rid of hated folds and make the skin smooth. Experienced beauticians advise taking an integrated approach, observing preventive measures and making nourishing masks on a regular basis to rejuvenate the skin around the eyes. Let's consider the main aspects in order, we will provide an effective way to combat wrinkles.
The first appearance of wrinkles under the eyes
- The first signs of large wrinkles appear at the age of 28-30, but it all depends on the individual structure of the dermis and other external factors. However, experienced cosmetologists have concluded that the production of collagen and elastin fibers slows down right at this age.
- The top layer of skin is depleted, becoming thinner, because cell regrowth naturally does not occur at the right level. The epidermis loses its ability to hold fluid, which is needed for tone and elasticity. The skin becomes dry, folds appear on it.
- It’s no secret that the skin around the eyes is the thinnest and most sensitive, requiring a delicate approach. Among other things, there are few sebaceous glands in this area, which are responsible for timely hydration and elasticity. As a result, even young girls in their 20s experience their first facial wrinkles.
- When the first facial wrinkles are repaired vigorously, they form what are called "crow’s feet" in the corners of the eyes. The special feature of the mesh remains on the face due to constant muscle contraction (smile, squint, etc. ). The skin loses its elasticity, folds and cracks remain, losing the ability to smooth.
Causes of the appearance of wrinkles under the eyes
- If we talk about statistical wrinkles, they are formed due to internal changes. These include heart disease, thyroid gland, impaired liver and kidney function, and slow metabolism. It is quite difficult to identify the cause, the consequences of combating wrinkles with the help of folk remedies can last for many years.
- It is known that estrogen is present in the body of everyone, both men and women. The only difference is the amount, women have less estrogen. When it cannot be produced at all, a sharp spike in the hormonal background will begin. Skin fades and wrinkles become age -related (due to epidermal aging).
- Exposure to environmental factors is considered the most common cause of wrinkles under the eyes. Everything is used - sun, rain, frost, wind. Cosmetic blemishes appear on the face, which over time form deep folds.
- For natural growth, skin cells must be enriched with oxygen. Otherwise, lack of fresh air causes a slowing of natural functions, the skin becomes fluffy, gray. Collagen stops being produced in large quantities, the top layer of the dermis becomes weak. The same can be said about active physical exercise, sports increase tissue elasticity.
- When a person does not adhere to food hygiene, do not consume fresh vegetables and fruits, drink little water, toxins accumulate in the subcutaneous tissue. Toxins and toxins clog blood vessels, preventing blood from circulating completely. Cells do not receive enough oxygen and run out. Cosmetic blemishes appear all over the surface of the face and body, deepening over time.
- Another major factor that provokes the appearance of premature wrinkles is the wrong lifestyle. These include frequent exposure to stress, tobacco and alcohol abuse, lack of work and rest or violations of daily routines, chronic sleep deprivation and overwork. Everything in the compartment gives rise to a "bouquet" of wrinkles that deepen with each passing day.
- Many girls believe that at a young age should not use high -quality decorative and caring cosmetics. However, this misunderstanding is very wrong. This is a cheap product that fixes the onset of dryness of the skin, clogging pores, wrinkles appear first between the eyebrows, then in the corners of the eyes and on the nose. After that, the harder it is to get rid of creases, it becomes impossible to leave the cosmetics completely.
- Initially, dynamic wrinkles appear around the eyes, they are also called "mimics". At risk are people with increased emotions, who, based on the nature of their service, are forced to express thoughts with facial expressions. Frequent contraction of facial muscles causes folds on the skin, as a rule, the general public, translators, teachers belong to this category.
- If we talk about external factors, the appearance of wrinkles under the eyes is typical for people who spend a lot of time in front of a PC without eye protection. The same goes for girls and women who go to the solarium and sunbathe. It is very important to protect your eyes with glasses with UV filters or anti-reflective coatings to prevent creases.
- Another important aspect that affects the health of facial skin is the choice of the right pillow. If the head is raised too high during rest, the epidermis will lack nutrients. The same thing happens at low levels, the face swells quickly. Choose a pillow that measures about 8-10 cm when compressed.
