Lines & Wrinkles

Lines and wrinkles form anywhere on our bodies from repetitive movements, or age and gravity. Patients are primarily concerned with treating the forehead, worry, laugh, lip, eye and jowl lines.

What is it?

Various factors contribute to the formation of lines and wrinkles, with the most prevalent being age and gravity, facial expressions, sun exposure and loss of fat. More specifically:

Age and Gravity: As the skin matures, it naturally depletes in collagen and elastin, resulting in a decrease in skin elasticity and the emergence of lines and wrinkles.
Facial Expressions: Wrinkles are often the result of repeated facial actions such as smiling, frowning, and squinting.
Sun Exposure: Extended exposure to the sun's ultraviolet (UV) rays can speed up the skin aging process, leading to premature wrinkles and fine lines. Our medical practice cannot emphasize enough the importance of incorporating sunscreen into your daily skincare routine.
Loss of Fat: With age, we naturally lose facial volume, which can cause skin sagging and the creation of wrinkles. Weight loss can also contribute, as the skin may not recover as swiftly when fat is lost.

Lines and wrinkles can appear anywhere on our bodies, but most of our patients are primarily concerned with treating forehead, worry, laugh, lip and jowl lines. Our dermatology clinic also offers treatment for lines and wrinkles on the neck and decolletage, catering to patients in Dublin, Columbus, Canal Winchester, Urbana, Circleville, Washington Courthouse, Grove City and Marysville, Ohio.
