Brilio.net - Fine lines and wrinkles are two facial skin problems that are often a problem for a number of people, especially for those who are over 40 years old. Although fine lines and wrinkles are related to the aging process, these two problems have differences in appearance and causes.

Fine lines are soft lines and are not very visible on the surface of the skin. These fine lines are generally finer and smoother than wrinkles. It often appears in the early stages of the aging process.

These fine lines usually occur because they are caused by the skin losing collagen and elastin. Collagen and elastin are structural proteins in the skin that provide density, suppleness and smoothness. This can happen due to increasing age. In this condition, the production of collagen and elastin decreases and causes the skin to lose elasticity and causes fine lines to appear.

Apart from that, there is another factor, namely dehydration. Well, skin that is less hydrated tends to be more susceptible to fine lines. Lack of water intake or the habit of consuming caffeinated drinks can cause dehydration and worsen the appearance of fine lines.

Meanwhile, these wrinkles are deeper folds in the skin, which often appear as clear and defined lines. They are generally a sign of more advanced aging than fine lines, although other factors can also influence the formation of wrinkles. Well, these wrinkles are caused by several factors, such as decreased collagen and elastin production, exposure to UV rays, and genetic factors.

It's quite disturbing to your appearance, you need to do this to disguise fine lines and wrinkles. You can do this by using one type of fruit, namely dragon fruit flesh. This method was delivered directly by a doctor named Doctor Wahyu Triasmara.
