Lines that develop on the upper third of the face—on areas such as the forehead and at the corners of the eyes—are typically associated with lifelong muscle activity. Financing your care at Pierre Skin Care Institute is easy, convenient, and safe. There are several factors—including lifestyle and genetics—that impact the type of wrinkles you have and where they form on the face. Although it can sometimes seem as if unwanted lines appear overnight, wrinkles start off as faint imperfections close to the surface of the skin and gradually become deeper as time passes.
Think of it like repeatedly creasing a same cloth in the same place. Just as repetitive folding will eventually cause a visible line to form in the fabric, decades of facial expressions that pull the skin into folds will gradually create etched-in lines.

The lines fall into two main groups: dynamic wrinkles also known as expression wrinkles due to their relationship with active muscles and static wrinkles. Some lines appear because aging diminishes healthy facial fat and other important elements in the skin, causing a drying, thinning, and loosening effect.
These are known as static wrinkles. Dynamic wrinkles are associated with repetitive facial movements or expressions such as smiling, frowning, squinting, and pursing the lips. These lines may also deepen and become static wrinkles over time. When the brain sends a signal for a muscle to contract, that message travels through a network of nerves until it arrives and triggers the desired activity.
