Brilio.net - Wrinkles are one of the most visible natural signs of aging on facial skin. Human skin, especially facial skin, is very susceptible to damage due to frequent exposure to external factors, such as sunlight, pollution, and weather changes.
In addition, as we age, the production of collagen and elastin in the skin that functions to maintain the elasticity and suppleness of the skin begins to decline. This is what causes the skin to become thinner, drier, and more prone to wrinkles.
The main cause of wrinkles is biological aging, which affects the inner layers of the skin. However, external factors also play a big role. UV rays from the sun, for example, can damage collagen and elastin fibers in the skin, causing the skin to become loose and prone to wrinkles.
In addition, bad habits such as smoking, lack of sleep, and poor diet can accelerate the skin aging process. This is because smoking can reduce blood flow to the skin, inhibit skin regeneration, and cause wrinkles to form around the mouth and eyes.
To overcome this condition, most people use collagen skincare sold on the market. In fact, there is a natural way that is more pocket-friendly but the results are no less effective. Like the upload shared by an Instagram user with the account name @mamathoren.
