Wrinkles that appear on the face usually include crow's feet, forehead wrinkles, and nasolabial folds.
Crow's feet: Located at the outer corners of the eyes, these fine vertical wrinkles are caused by frequent eye muscle activity, leading to decreased skin elasticity. As we age, these wrinkles deepen, appearing as noticeable horizontal or vertical depressions on the skin's surface. They may also be accompanied by skin laxity and pigmentation issues.
For assessing facial wrinkles, doctors may recommend a dermoscopy to observe changes in skin texture. If necessary, a skin biopsy may also be required to rule out other underlying skin conditions. Treatment methods differ depending on the type of facial wrinkle. For example, using skincare products containing hyaluronic acid or collagen can improve mild crow's feet; while Botox injections can be used to reduce forehead wrinkles. For deeper nasolabial folds, fillers such as hyaluronic acid or autologous fat grafting may be effective options.
In daily life, avoid excessive sun exposure, use sunscreen, and wear a hat to reduce UV damage to the skin. In addition, maintaining good sleep quality, a balanced diet, and moderate exercise can also help delay the appearance of wrinkles.
