Wrinkles - The Endless Pursuit To Satisfy Our Vanity
Sun-related skin damage goes beyond the immediate sunburn or blistering. In fact, years later many people notice the appearance of wrinkles, dryness, freckles, mottled pigmentation and skin tightening. Elastosis is the damaging of the elastic tissue and is a major contributor to the lines and wrinkles that plague us in our forties and beyond. The natural aging process entails a slowdown of collagen and elastin production, in addition to a "drying up" of oil secretion glands and free-radical-caused tissue damage. Living a wrinkle free existence may not be entirely possible, but there are all sorts of wrinkle treatment methods that can ease the mind, and the skin!
One way of treating wrinkles is to shop for anti aging skin care products. Wrinkle reducer creams aim to restore some of the lost nutrients, vitamins and enzyme "triggers" that the body has inadvertently washed away over time. Vitamin A, B, C and E can be taken in supplement form or topically to help your body get back on track and rejuvenate on its own again. Anti wrinkle products like Neutrogena's Healthy Skin Anti Wrinkle cream, L'Oreal's Line Eraser, Oil of Olay's Age Defying Anti Wrinkle cream or Garnier's Nutritioniste Ultra-Lift Anti Wrinkle cream can all be purchased at your local supermarket for less than $20.
More high-end, brand-name products are available at department store makeup counters. For instance, Estée Lauder's Diminish Anti Wrinkle is available for $80, Lancome's Renergie for $77 or Christian Dior's Capture R60/80 for $80. The latter is said to "deliver a cocktail of powerful ingredients directly to the wrinkle." Spas also offer select lines of anti aging skin solutions - like Epicuren, used by Jennifer Aniston and Brooke Shields who swear by the product.
Science and innovation comprise the base of the latest treatment creams. For instance, emu oil has been recently discovered to have regenerative and lifting properties. Dremu Oil has become the anti wrinkle cream of the celebrities, garnering endorsements from Catherine Zeta-Jones and Goldie Hawn to Cindy Crawford and Tyra Banks. Another new innovation centers on controversial stem cell research. Amatokin's Emulsion For the Face goes for $190 for a one month supply but is said to drastically improve the skin's appearance; reducing fine lines, wrinkles, blemishes and skin tightness.
Prescription-strength creams can be administered for people who are concerned about their wrinkles. For example, dermatologists traditionally recommend Retinol-A, which is a fat-soluble vitamin associated with skin and tissue re-growth. A new system doctors may prescribe is the ELASTIderm Decolletage System. With ELASTIderm, patients receive a skin lightening formula with 4% hydroquinone and a bi-mineral, malonic acid all in one. The end result is an anti wrinkle cream that restores the skin's natural pigmentation, which rejuvenates the color and texture of the skin, as well as revitalizes elasticity, which strengthens underlying collagen and diminishes wrinkles.
There are other specially tailored products for wrinkles around the lips and eyes. Because the skin is so thin in these areas, they're particularly susceptible to unpleasant lines and wrinkles. You can find Allure Magazine favorite, Estee Lauder's Advanced Night Recovery, Relastin's Eye Silk, or Lancome's Absolute Eye in most department stores. For contour lines around the mouth, try the Dr. Denese New York's Perfect Pucker Line Filler with Pro-Peptide Factor, a celebrity favorite.
End those fight with your wrinkles. You do not have to live with unsightly lines that age you beyond your years. You do not have to undergo expensive and painful cosmetic procedures to banish those lines for a while. Plus the procedures are not permanent. You will have to get them again in a few years. Instead of those options why not look into the new face creams and home treatments to banish the lines and those crow's feet? They will not cost you as much and you can use them continuously.
