Why Wrinkles and Fine Lines Develop
Wrinkles and fine lines develop as the skin undergoes gradual structural changes.
Reduced collagen production
Collagen provides strength and support to the skin. As collagen production slows with age, the skin becomes less firm and lines begin to form.
Loss of elasticity
Elastin fibres allow the skin to return to its original shape. Over time, these fibres weaken, contributing to wrinkles.
Dehydration
When skin lacks moisture, fine lines can become more visible and the skin may appear less smooth.
Environmental stress
Sun exposure, pollution and oxidative stress can accelerate the visible signs of ageing.
These changes are natural, but supportive skincare can help maintain smoother skin texture and improve skin resilience.
