Everyone has a love for beauty, and everyone wants to stay young forever. The demand for anti-wrinkle products has created a huge market, and there are countless products that people are overwhelmed with, making it difficult to distinguish the real from the fake. How do wrinkles arise? How to prevent wrinkles and anti-wrinkles to be safe and effective? Not chicken soup, not blood, and let me slowly for you to tell. How do wrinkles grow out? We all have the experience that people with dark skin and people who don’t smile are not prone to wrinkles. Why is that? It starts with skin composition. Collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid are the most abundant components of the skin, the first two most closely related to skin thickness and elasticity, and the latter to skin water content. These components are synthesized by cells within the skin. As individuals age and the external environment harms them, cell viability decreases and the synthesis of these components gradually decreases, and the skin becomes saggy and dry. Since UV rays can directly cause damage to cells and elastic fibers in the dermis causing photoaging of the skin, tanned skin can block more UV rays because there is more melanin in the epidermis, and the cells and tissue fibers in the dermis are less damaged, with better cellular vitality and fewer wrinkles. In addition, the hardest hit areas for wrinkles tend to be around the eyes (crow’s feet), forehead (head lines) and mouth. Because these areas are rich in expression muscles, they keep pulling the skin on the surface every day, and over the years, the elastic fibers are damaged and wrinkles are created. Naturally, those who do not smile are less likely to develop wrinkles. Wrinkle prevention is better than cure Since the causes of wrinkles are clear, let’s re-examine the current popular anti-wrinkle products. These are really not reliable: collagen mask: expecting this molecular weight easily more than 100,000 large molecules of glycoprotein transdermal absorption? The collagen gentleman cries in aggravation, “I can’t do it! But the bacteria on the surface of the skin are very welcome, “I’ve been starving for a long time, finally give a better life! Hyaluronic acid (hyaluronic acid) mask: Although the molecular weight is small, it cannot enter the dermis in large quantities through the barrier due to hydrophilicity. Oral collagen: Such a large glycoprotein molecule has only one fate when it enters the human digestive tract – it is broken down into peptides and amino acids, and simply cannot reach the skin in the form of collagen. And because of the lack of essential amino acids, the nutritional value of collagen is low. The author doesn’t have a problem with Chinese medicine, and it’s true that there is no shortage of “success stories” in Chinese medicine, but those historical noblewomen were able to stay young thanks to a better living environment and medical protection than the common people. After all, individuals who are short of food and clothing, and who have to fight illnesses, age faster. You can try these: sunscreen products: block UV rays to kill skin cells caused by photoaging, naturally can slow down the aging. The SOD is an abbreviation for superoxide dismutase, a smaller molecule extracted from pig blood and liver that can be absorbed transdermally to remove oxygen radicals harmful to cells within the skin. Even the cheapest vitamin C has the same effect, not to mention the newer antioxidant drugs that have been developed to effectively protect the skin. Botox: A highly trained plastic surgeon can weaken the function of the expression muscles through precise injections, thus reducing the pull on the skin from daily expression movements. It is important to note that this drug can have serious consequences if used improperly. It is important to go to a proper medical facility if needed. Wrinkles can be mended when they are already more visible, and preventive measures can only delay their aggravation. To treat wrinkles, you need to seek the help of a doctor. Physical treatments: Fractional laser, electrolysis, Thermage (Thermage), photorejuvenation …… are all similar in that they apply acute physical damage to the dermis, causing the skin to initiate repair mechanisms, cells are revitalized, elastic and collagen fibers are rearranged to restore elasticity, and local microcirculation is also improved. It is more effective for early wrinkles. Surgical treatment: There is a new technique in which absorbable threads with barbs are threaded into the skin and fascial system and fixed at the upper end to achieve a minimally invasive face lift and treat wrinkles. Alternatively, traditional surgery makes incisions in hidden areas (such as the hairline and behind the ears), lifts the SMAS (superficial musculotendinous system) and removes a portion of the skin and re-sews it, and very visible wrinkles and facial sagging can be significantly corrected. Whether prevention or treatment is just slowing down the development of wrinkles, aging is fair for everyone. Keep an ageless heart and beauty will bloom more permanently.
