Causes of Under-Eye Wrinkles and the Right Way to Manage Them

[Dermatology specialist Lee Yudeuk]

Hello,

A place that creates a comfortable face rather than excessive change.

This is Ezham Dermatology Clinic.

� Do the wrinkles under your eyes keep catching your attention every time you look in the mirror? If fine lines that appear when you smile now remain even when you are not making any expression, this may be a sign that skin aging has begun in earnest.

The causes of under-eye wrinkles are often thought to be simply a natural result of getting older, but if you understand the exact cause and start appropriate care, this is an area where you can expect positive changes.

This is dermatology specialist 'Lee Yudeuk'. Why the skin around the eyes is vulnerable to wrinkles The biggest cause of under-eye wrinkles is skin aging.

As we get older, the production of collagen and elastin in our skin gradually decreases. In particular, the skin around the eyes is thinner than other areas of the face and has fewer sebaceous glands, so it tends to become dry more easily, making wrinkles appear sooner.

In addition, repeated facial movements are also an important cause.

We blink, smile, and frown countless times a day, and these repeated movements leave wrinkle lines in the skin.

When we are young, our skin’s elasticity allows it to recover quickly, but as we age, once a line folds in, it tends to remain.

The effect of lifestyle habits on wrinkle formation

Exposure to ultraviolet rays is also a major factor that accelerates the causes of under-eye wrinkles.

Ultraviolet rays penetrate deep into the skin, damaging collagen and elastin fibers and reducing skin elasticity.

In particular, the area around the eyes is difficult to cover thoroughly with sunscreen, and looking at sunlight without sunglasses can cause you to squint, which may make wrinkles deepen.

Dry environments or lack of moisture are also factors that cause fine wrinkles under the eyes.

If proper hydration is not provided, the skin surface becomes rough and fine lines begin to form.

Smoking or irregular lifestyle habits are also among the causes of under-eye wrinkles.

Cigarettes interfere with blood circulation, reducing the supply of oxygen and nutrients to the skin, and the pursing of the lips while smoking, along with the smoke, creates a squinting habit that makes wrinkles deeper.

Care guidelines to keep in mind in daily life

There are things to be careful about when managing under-eye wrinkles.

Above all, the skin around the eyes is very thin and sensitive, so strong irritation should be avoided.

Rubbing the eye area hard during cleansing or the habit of rubbing your eyes can create friction on the skin and make wrinkles deeper.

You also need to be careful not to use unverified cosmetics or products containing irritating ingredients carelessly.

Because the skin around the eyes is thin and absorbs quickly, irritation can also appear easily.

Following folk remedies or unverified massage methods seen online without caution can actually damage the skin.

Changes that can occur if left untreated

If you leave the causes of under-eye wrinkles unaddressed, they may start as fine lines at first, but if they are neglected without care, they will gradually develop into deeper wrinkles.

Once wrinkles become deep, they are much harder to manage and require stronger methods, more cost, and more time.

Under-eye wrinkles also make you look tired and older, creating an impression that makes you appear older than your actual age.

This can become a factor that lowers confidence in interpersonal relationships or social life.

Various methods applied in dermatology

When you visit a dermatology clinic, you can receive systematic help for under-eye wrinkles.

Above all, a dermatologist accurately diagnoses the individual's skin condition, wrinkle depth, and cause, and provides a customized method accordingly.

Ultrasound lifting procedures such as Doublo Gold, Vro, and Shurink deliver energy into the deep layers of the skin to help collagen production and are used for sagging areas.

These methods are applied to skin tightening and are used not only for fine wrinkles under the eyes but also for overall skin elasticity.

Radiofrequency lifting with Thermage is also an option.

Thermage is a method that applies heat to the dermis to induce collagen contraction and production, and some changes may begin to appear immediately after the procedure.

Skin booster methods are also applied to the under-eye wrinkle area.

Skin boosters such as Juvelook, Juvelook Volume, Rejuran, and Byrism deliver moisture and nutrients deep into the skin.

When combined with lifting methods, these can create a synergistic effect, allowing you to address elasticity with lifting while handling moisture and skin texture at the same time with skin boosters.

Why early care matters and Ezham Dermatology Clinic The reason under-eye wrinkle care is important is that early care greatly affects the results.

If you begin care in the early stage before wrinkles become deep, you can expect changes even with relatively mild methods.

This is also why many visitors begin light preventive care in their late 20s.

Also, because the area around the eyes is the first part of the face people look at, caring for wrinkles in this area alone can make your overall impression look much younger and more vibrant.
