Fillers for nasolabial wrinkles mean injections into folds for rejuvenation, that is, a special placeholder. People begin to give injections at the age of 30, although cosmetologists say that prevention should begin at the age of 25, when the formation of crow's feet near the eyes, small depressions in the lip area.

Then patients are given injections of hyaluronic acid, sometimes amino acid complexes or Botox.

These substances compensate for the deficiencies of collagen, elastin, vitamins and moisture, which the body begins to produce less due to aging.

Fillers for nasolabial wrinkles are aimed at:

• restoration of skin elasticity;
• tightening, drawing facial features;
• contour plastic surgery of lips, cheekbones and cheeks;
• restoration of blood circulation and oxygen metabolism;
• to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin;
• for smoothing and restoration natural color skin.

But the main task of anti-wrinkle fillers is to fill voids in the skin, smooth out wrinkles and restore facial contour. Another method is only plastic surgery with great health risks.

How do they work on wrinkles?

But a lot depends on the main active ingredient, which is usually hyaluronic acid. She made from living cells, therefore easily absorbed by the body.

Its action is aimed at:

1. filling voids in the skin;
2. smoothing out wrinkles;
3. nutrition and hydration of the skin;
4. stimulation of skin regeneration;
5. contouring and increasing the volume of lips, cheekbones, cheeks.

The first result is noticeable within two to three hours after the procedure, it lasts up to five months, so it needs to be repeated two to three times a year.

Main substance

The filler is a special gel that is injected into the skin using an injection needle, so the second name for the procedure is contour plastic surgery. All fillers are divided into synthetic and biodegradable. In the first case, silicone and polyacrylamide are used for production, which do not change for a long time and remain in the body. Although they can cause severe allergies and rejection by the body.

If we talk about biodegradable fillers, they are made from living animal or human cells and are divided into the following categories:

• Collagen, which are made from animal cartilage, are inexpensive, and last for about a year.
• With calcium hydroxylopate made from bone tissue, stimulate collagen production.
• With lactic acid can last up to two years and does not produce toxins.
• Lipofillers involve the introduction of natural subcutaneous fat.
• With hyaluronic acid fill cells with moisture, smooth out nasolabial wrinkles, are similar to natural substances in the body, but last no more than six months.

Regarding nasolabial folds and wrinkles, thick gels with hyaluronic acid are mainly used for them, although the decision is made only by a cosmetologist after examining the patient, taking into account age, health status and depth of wrinkles.

Efficacy of drugs

The effectiveness of fillers for nasolabial wrinkles will depend on the main active component, the skill of the technician, compliance with the rules for the procedure, prevention and precautions.

Typically, small folds in the lip area disappear two hours after the procedure, and expression lines and hollows disappear after two to three days. The effect lasts up to six months, subject to nutrition, use of creams and facial massages.

Introduction

Everyone wants to maintain youth as long as possible, but the years take their toll, leaving marks not only on health, but also on the face in the form of wrinkles. From time immemorial, people have been in search of the “elixir of youth”, no matter how sophisticated they have come up with, but, unfortunately, the code of eternal youth remains encrypted in our “progressive” times.

History describes a lot of unsuccessful attempts to invent means of eternal beauty, youth and immortality. So, they still use the recipes of Cleopatra, who all her life tried to be the ideal of beauty and the dream of any man. These are all kinds of masks, creams, baths, cosmetics, in which plant and animal components were used, but masks made from the sperm of young men and baths made from donkey milk are especially famous. Some believed that young blood prolongs youth by sacrificing the lives of others. And the alchemists of the Middle Ages devoted their entire lives to the invention of the “philosopher’s stone” or “stone of immortality.” At this time, other especially advanced ones were rejuvenated by sex with young people, so to speak, they warmed up and dispersed the blood. And everyone was sure that a person should live at least 150 years or more.

In the middle of the 20th century, scientists went far and transplanted gonads into people from monkeys, expecting that animal hormones would rejuvenate them, but this did not allow them to avoid old age; moreover, some scientists associate the spread of HIV among humanity with this fact.

Nowadays, they are trying to solve this problem at the molecular and genetic level; they believe that the future of eternal youth lies with stem cells, but this theory has not been confirmed either; their use at the moment poses more risks to life and health than the effect rejuvenation.

Most effective way prolongation of youth and in our times they consider a healthy lifestyle and nutrition, proper care skin and psychological balance. And many people should just accept their old age with dignity; every person is beautiful at any age in their own way. The main thing is not to stop taking care of yourself. And it is important to remember that appearance is a mirror image of a person’s inner world.

Naturally, the main cause of wrinkles is age, that is, the physiological process of skin aging. But there is enough a large number of external and internal factors that negatively affect the skin and lead to faster appearance of wrinkles. Many people notice that for some people, wrinkles become noticeable only at the age of 50–60, while for others, folds on the face appear after 20.

3. Environment:

4. Poor nutrition:

• eating “junk food”: smoked meats, food preservatives, dyes, flavor enhancers and much more.

6. Improper care for skin:

• use of low-quality cosmetics, both decorative and caring;

How does skin age and wrinkles form?

With age and under the influence of negative factors, various changes occur in the skin and subcutaneous fat layer, which lead to sagging skin and the formation of wrinkles. The first changes appear by the age of 25. The trigger for skin aging is a violation of blood circulation and nutrition of the skin itself, the subcutaneous fat layer and muscles.

In order to understand how the skin ages, you need to understand how it works.

Skin structure

The skin is an organ with a huge area. Its main function is a protective function for the whole organism from the effects of the environment and infections. The skin also participates in the exchange of heat and water.

The skin often reflects many health problems; against the background of various diseases, it can change color, moisture, oiliness, elasticity, and rashes on it are a clear symptom of many ailments. Therefore, only a healthy person can have healthy skin.

The skin consists of three layers:

• epidermis covered with a water-fat layer;
• dermis;
• subcutaneous fat tissue.

The status of each of these layers is displayed on appearance skin and wrinkle formation.

Picture 1. Schematic representation of the structure of the skin of the face and around the eyes.

Water-fat layer is the result of the production of sebaceous and sweat glands located in the dermis. It is this layer that is responsible for the moisture of the skin. But, in addition to the cosmetic effect, the water-fat layer protects the skin from various factors and infections. Its normal condition delays the appearance of wrinkles.

Epidermis represents 5 layers of cells. The lowest layer (basal) consists of basal keratinocytes. These cells form other layers of the epidermis up to the outer stratum corneum. Horny cells are essentially dead, contain keratin, and gradually exfoliate, this is how the skin renews itself. Also in the epidermis there are melanocyte cells that form melanin. This pigment is responsible for skin color, including racial color, the presence of age spots and moles, and under the influence of ultraviolet radiation it colors the skin in dark color- Tan .

Figure 2. Schematic representation of the layers of the epidermis.

The main function of the epidermis is to protect against skin dehydration, as well as against the action of various factors. In addition, the epidermis contains immune cells, protecting the skin from infections.

Dermis– this is the skin itself. The firmness and elasticity of the skin largely depends on the condition of the dermis. At its core, it is connective tissue that forms the elastic and elastic framework of the skin, which consists of:

• collagen;
• elastin;
• proteinglycan (hyaluronic acid).

All these substances are produced by special fibroblast cells. The greater their number and better quality– the more elastic the skin.

Hyaluronic acid is able to retain moisture in the skin in the form of a gel, which makes it smooth and elastic. This substance also prevents the effects of various toxic substances on the skin.

In addition, the dermis contains blood and lymphatic vessels, nerve endings, sebaceous and sweat glands. The rate of wrinkle formation also depends on the condition of these structures.

Subcutaneous fat consists of fat and connective tissue. For each person, the development of this layer differs depending on their “fatness.” There are also many vessels and nerves in the subcutaneous fat layer.

Features of the structure of the skin of the eyelids, around the eyes and lips:

• the skin around the eyes is very thin, four times thinner than the skin of the face;
• a thinner water-fat layer due to fewer sebaceous and sweat glands;
• the dermis contains less collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid;
• the subcutaneous fat layer is absent or practically undeveloped;
• increased supply of blood vessels and nerve endings.

All this makes the skin around the eyes and lips more vulnerable and requires special attention, because the first wrinkles appear in this area.

Skin types

Cosmetologists distinguish four types of facial skin. The gradation is based on the condition of the sebaceous and sweat glands, that is, the moisture and oiliness of the skin.

Facial skin types:

• Normal skin– looks good, is little sensitive to environmental factors, and is least susceptible to the formation of wrinkles.
• Dry skin is usually delicate, with almost no visible pores. But such skin is prone to faster irritation and early wrinkling (with improper care).
• Oily skin– usually shines, capillaries are visible, pores are enlarged. Acne and pustules often form on it. But such skin is less vulnerable to various irritants and later forms wrinkles.
• Combination skin- the most problematic. The skin around the forehead, nose, lips and chin is usually oily, while the rest of the face is normal or dry.

The selection of caring, rejuvenating and decorative cosmetics depends on your skin type.

How are wrinkles formed?

1. Under the influence various reasons early aging or age nutrition and blood circulation deteriorate dermis and subcutaneous fat, as well as facial muscles.
2. In the epidermis Fewer basal keratocytes are formed and the number of dead squamous cells increases, their normal exfoliation is disrupted, the skin becomes rough and flaky, rougher. Also the number of melanocytes decreases, the skin becomes dull. As a result, sebum secretion is disrupted and all metabolic processes in the skin deteriorate.
3. The functioning of the sebaceous and sweat glands is disrupted, the water-fat layer becomes thinner, the skin becomes dry, and dehydration occurs.
4. Fibroblast renewal slows down As a result, less collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid are formed, and connective tissue loses its original structure. The skin loses its elasticity and wrinkles easily, forming furrows and folds - wrinkles.
5. Decreased hyaluronic acid content in the skin leads to dehydration of the dermis. Also intensifying negative action various toxins on the skin, which aggravates all processes of wrinkle formation.
6. Thick or thin subcutaneous fat layer also affects the formation of wrinkles. So, with its deficiency, the elasticity of the entire skin decreases, and with its excess, all metabolic processes of the skin are disrupted, and it withers.

As a result, the skin gradually becomes wrinkled, flabby, dull and dry.

Another important role in the development of wrinkles is played by the condition of the facial muscles; when they are overexcited and sagging, facial folds and various sagging skin develop.

Types and types of wrinkles on the face

According to the severity of wrinkles there are:
1. Superficial– changes occur to a greater extent in the epidermis. Young girls and women often find such wrinkles on their faces. The main reason for the appearance is not deep wrinkles ok is dry skin and tension in the facial muscles (expression wrinkles).
2. Deep– changes occur in the dermis and subcutaneous fat, skin elasticity is lost, it becomes flabby, sagging appears stretched skin. These are usually age-related wrinkles and, unfortunately, they are practically impossible to smooth out with conventional cosmetic procedures.

Also, according to the severity of wrinkles, they can be divided into dynamic And static. The former are not visible in a calm state; they are noticeable only when the facial muscles are tense. The latter cannot be hidden behind a mask of calm.

Types of wrinkles due to their occurrence:
1. Mimic– occur when facial muscles are tense.
2. Gravitational– the result of sagging skin due to poor firmness and elasticity.
3. Age– Wrinkles associated with aging usually cover the entire surface of the face.

How to get rid of wrinkles?

You can deal with the first wrinkles on your own by changing your lifestyle and properly caring for your facial skin. Various masks will come to the rescue homemade or ready-made anti-wrinkle products based on plants and with innovative ingredients.

If simple methods do not help, you will need the help of a cosmetologist who will tell you how to effectively smooth your facial skin and prescribe the necessary procedures, including physiotherapy. Surgeons can be contacted when masks and hardware procedures do not help; they will be able to offer injections, laser therapy and, as a radical option, plastic surgery.

• Give up bad habits, smoking and alcohol have a particularly negative impact on facial appearance.
• Get enough sleep and walk in the fresh air.
• Drink enough fluids, focusing on purified and mineral water.
• Don't be nervous about it or not.
• Don’t go overboard with tanning; luxurious wrinkles on your face will inevitably be added to the luxurious color. It is necessary to use sunscreen; it is also better not to show yourself in the cold without special preparation.
• Properly cleanse and moisturize your facial skin according to your skin characteristics and type.
• Proper nutrition is the key to health and beauty, eat more plant-based foods rich in vitamins, do not forget about vegetable fats in moderation and dairy products.
• Regular intake of vitamins A and E (Aevit) will help maintain youthful skin from the inside.
• Grimace less, tense your facial muscles better proper exercises and charging.
• You need to lose weight gradually; a sudden loss of body weight leads to sagging skin not only at the waist, but also on the face. And extra pounds won’t refresh your complexion either.

Skin care and wrinkle-free skin

The fight against aging of facial skin must be resorted to in youth, and this must be approached comprehensively and correctly, and most importantly, all our efforts must be regular, because the effect will only come from daily efforts on ourselves. Proper care facial treatment will not only help you deal with wrinkles that have already appeared on your face, but also prevent the development of new wrinkles and put off old age until later.

Anti-aging complex for facial skin care

1. Facial skin cleansing – required condition healthy skin. During the day, the skin of the face is always contaminated with dust, harmful substances from the environment, sweat and sebum. Makeup is also such a pollutant. All this clogs pores, worsens metabolic processes and slows down the restoration of the epidermis, and as a result, the skin fades, becomes inflamed and becomes wrinkled. Below are simple tips for cleansing your face:

• Going to bed with makeup on is a crime against your skin.
• All manipulations on the face should be careful and gentle; strong rubbing, stretching and friction of the skin injure it and lead to the faster appearance of wrinkles.
• You can cleanse your skin with water and soap (cosmetic or baby soap), but it is better to use special cleansers or makeup removers. These products are applied to cotton pads that are used to wipe the face.
• Dry skin should be cleansed with moisturizers, for example, milk, and oily skin with lotions and fruit extracts, and if available acne salicylic acid will help. But for problematic sensitive skin, regular vegetable oil, for example, olive, as well as chamomile or calendula decoctions, are suitable. Also for sensitive skin Micellar water is suitable, which contains unique water crystals - micelles. Micelles are able to remove grease, makeup and dust, and contain absolutely no fragrances or other irritants.
• Many face masks also cleanse the skin, such as masks with fruit, cucumber, clay, aloe and others. This is an ideal option for sensitive facial skin. Cleansing masks are recommended to be used 1-2 times a week.

2. Peeling or removal of the top layer of epithelium. This is necessary to speed up the recovery of the epidermis, as well as to improve the penetration of nourishing and moisturizing agents. This procedure rejuvenates well and smoothes out shallow wrinkles. It is important to know that peeling is not carried out in the areas around the eyes and lips, in the presence of inflammatory and allergic reactions on the skin, as well as before going out into the sun or frost.

Types of peeling:

• Scrub: special cosmetic product, coffee grounds, salt, oatmeal, semolina and whatever comes to hand.
• Washcloth – you need a special soft washcloth for your face, and when using it, you should not make rough movements.
• Acids and enzymes - fruit acids, salicylic, retinoic acids, honey, etc.
• Procedures in beauty salons: peeling using laser, acids, enzymes. Such procedures are especially indicated in the presence of pigmentation.

Peeling with a scrub or washcloth can be done 1-2 times a week. More deep peeling Usually recommended from 2 to 6 times a year (depending on the method and individual characteristics).

3. Moisturizing and nourishing facial skin. Almost any type of cleansing damages the upper water-fat layer of the epidermis or the protection of our skin, so after it it is advisable to moisturize the skin. To do this, use a moisturizing and nourishing cream or mask. When selecting these products, you need to take into account the characteristics of your skin and the presence of a particular problem. The mask is different from nourishing cream because it can very quickly and effectively nourish the skin, as if pushing out wrinkles, giving a visible result. This procedure must be carried out every few days or in courses. The cream has a cumulative effect and is necessary for daily use. If we compare these products with each other, the mask is more effective means than cream, and their use in combination gives the very desired result. It is also important to use separately special means for skin care around the eyes and lips.

4. Decorative cosmetics for makeup- an integral part of self-care for most representatives of the fair sex. But its improper use leads to faster fading and aging of the skin.

Requirements for decorative cosmetics:

• Cosmetics should be of high quality and as natural as possible, and not cause allergic reactions and have a good shelf life.
• Should not clog skin pores. It is applied in a thin layer - a thick layer of makeup does not make anyone look good.
• Before applying makeup, the skin must be cleansed and moisturized.
• Make up should only be applied with clean sponges and brushes.
• It is necessary to remove makeup in a timely manner.

Of course, there is a lot of work to do on oneself, but beauty and youth require sacrifice. If you take care of yourself every day, the results will not be long in coming.

How to hide wrinkles with makeup?

1. Mandatory hydration before applying decorative cosmetics - these can be masks, creams, serums, gels and other products. It is important that the moisturizer is completely absorbed; excess can be blotted with a clean napkin.

2. The right toners: for wrinkles you need creams with a silky texture that will additionally moisturize the skin. Undesirable use foundations with a fatty and dense consistency. The color of the tinting agent is also important; it should not be lighter shade your skin.

3. Correct application foundation:

• foundation is applied from the center of the face to the periphery (along massage lines), using light tapping and stroking movements with your fingers; foundation can also be applied using a sponge and brushes;
• Avoid applying foundation to deep skin folds;

• the powder should be compact, it is better to apply it with a brush on top of the cream in the area of ​​the forehead, nose and chin;
• In the area under the eyes it is better not to use powder, only cream will do.

4. Use concealer. Wrinkle folds are tinted using a special corrector - concealer; it is water-based, easily absorbed, and its color is matched to a tone two lighter than the main tone. They can also disguise bruises and bags under the eyes. The concealer is applied with a thin brush and only to limited areas of the skin, in the form of small strokes.


5. Correction of wrinkles in the eye area:

• You should not apply mascara and eyeliner in the lower eyelid area; you should only emphasize the upper eyelids;
• You can apply a pencil to the mucous contour of the lower eyelid light color, from white to beige - this will give the look a clear look;
• You should not use too dark, bright and pearlescent shadows - this will emphasize every wrinkle; matte bed-colored shadows one or two shades darker than the skin are better suited.

6. Correction of wrinkles in the lip area:

• deep wrinkles around the lips can be hidden with concealer;
• matte and dark lipsticks wrinkles are emphasized, lip gloss is better suited, and if you apply more in the central part of the lips light tone lipstick, this will visually add volume to them;
• It is important that lipstick or lip gloss does not smudge, in which case cosmetics like concealer will fill every wrinkle and color it.

Water for wrinkles

Water is the main component of our body. And the more of it there is in the skin, the more elastic and beautiful it looks. Many studies have proven that people who drink more than 2 liters of purified water per day develop wrinkles much later.

Types of wrinkles

Superficial wrinkles

All wrinkles can be divided into superficial and deep. Superficial, in turn, are divided into facial, gravitational and senile. They appear on the skin as thin lines.

Expression wrinkles are more common than others. They occur as a result of everyday movements of the facial muscles, such as when you frown or smile. Elimination or removal of facial wrinkles on the face, forehead, around the eyes and under the eyes, as well as wrinkles on the eyelids, is most effective with injections and injections of Botox for wrinkles.

Gravity wrinkles form due to sagging skin. The most common are nasolabial wrinkles and folds and wrinkles in the lower eyelid area under the eyes.

When do wrinkles appear?

The first expression lines can appear as early as 18–20 years of age. Premature wrinkles occur when deep wrinkles begin to form before the age of 35. The reasons for this may be aggressive exposure to the sun, overwork, lack of sleep, poor diet and much more.

At the age of 35–40, both deeper wrinkles in the nasolabial area, wrinkles above the eyebrows, and deep wrinkles on the neck begin to form, which are quite difficult to get rid of. However, modern cosmetology has a large number of different procedures for deep facial wrinkles.
