Decline in collagen production that occurs with age. Collagen
is responsible for the elasticity of the skin, and less collagen
makes it more difficult for our skin to return to its original state
to return.
Aging skin loses both elasticity and
moisture. This makes it more susceptible to wrinkles and fine lines, as
it can no longer protect itself as well from damage. Another
important factor is sun exposure, which is why wrinkles first

Genetics.
Wrinkles can appear as early as the mid-20s to early 30s. The first wrinkles are often fine lines around the eyes and mouth, known as laugh lines or expression lines. As we get older, these lines become deeper and more noticeable.
The most common causes of wrinkles are:
- Aging : loss of collagen and elastin.
- Sun exposure : UV rays damage skin cells.
- Smoking : Accelerates the breakdown of collagen.
- Dehydration : Dry skin is prone to wrinkles.
- Facial expressions : Repeated movements create lines.
Sun protection is crucial for preventing wrinkles. UV rays are a major cause of skin aging and wrinkles. Applying a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily can help protect skin from UV damage and delay the onset of wrinkles.
Sleep plays an important role in skin health. During sleep, the skin regenerates and produces new collagen. Lack of sleep can lead to an increase in the stress hormone cortisol, which promotes the breakdown of collagen and accelerates skin aging. Getting enough sleep therefore helps prevent wrinkles.

Products that contain ingredients such as retinol, hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, peptides and niacinamide are particularly effective in reducing wrinkles. These ingredients promote collagen production, moisturize and improve skin texture.
Retinol, a derivative of vitamin A, promotes cell renewal and collagen production. It helps smooth fine lines, improve skin texture and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. Regular use can show significant improvements.
Anti-wrinkle creams can be effective, especially if they contain active ingredients such as retinol, peptides or hyaluronic acid, such as our anti-wrinkle serum.
However, the effectiveness depends on the formulation, the concentration of the active ingredients and the consistency of the application.
