When to start anti-aging treatments to prevent wrinkles?

Skin aging and its effects on the skin

The skin aging process begins early, often in your twenties. Fibroblasts, cells responsible for producing collagen and elastin, become less active with age. This decrease leads to a reduction in collagen and elastin fibers, essential for maintaining skin firmness and elasticity. As a result, the skin gradually loses its firmness, and the first wrinkles begin to appear.

Other factors also contribute to skin aging:

• Slowed cell renewal : with age, the renewal of epidermal cells slows down. Dead cells accumulate on the surface of the skin, reducing its radiance and its ability to absorb care.
• Refinement of the dermis : the dermis flattens over time, which reduces the volume and density of the skin.
• Loss of hydration : The skin's ability to retain moisture decreases, leading to drier, more wrinkle-prone skin.

The visible signs of skin aging are accentuated by various external factors:

• UV exposure : UV rays are one of the main causes of premature aging. They cause cell damage and degrade collagen.
• Free radicals : Generated by pollution, tobacco and other environmental insults, free radicals accelerate the aging process by damaging skin cells.
• Hormonal decline : from menopause, the decrease in estrogen accelerates skin aging.

Anti-aging care plays a crucial role in preventing and mitigating the effects of skin aging. They work by stimulating fibroblasts to produce more collagen and elastin. They also promote cell renewal and deeply hydrate to maintain firm, radiant skin.

Starting anti-aging treatments around the age of 25 may seem premature, but it is actually a key period for preventing the first signs of aging. Incorporating products containing antioxidants like vitamin C or E helps neutralize free radicals. Additionally, using sunscreen daily significantly reduces UV damage.

Regular use of gentle exfoliants also promotes cell renewal by removing dead cells accumulated on the skin's surface. Opting for moisturizing creams enriched with hyaluronic acid helps maintain good skin hydration.

Effectively preventing wrinkles requires a suitable routine as soon as the first signs of skin aging appear.

The different causes of skin aging

The skin aging process is influenced by a multitude of factors. Among the main ones, we find:

• Genetic factors : Genes play a crucial role in how quickly and how our skin ages. Some people may be predisposed to premature aging due to their genetic makeup.
• Estrogen Decline : As we age, estrogen production declines, which can lead to thinner, less elastic skin. This hormonal decline directly affects fibroblasts, responsible for the production of collagen and elastin.
• Free radicals : These unstable molecules damage skin cells by disrupting cell turnover and promoting the accumulation of dead cells on the skin's surface. Free radicals mainly come from pollution and UV rays.
• Smoking : Tobacco use reduces blood supply to the skin, thereby decreasing oxygenation and essential nutrients. Smoking also accelerates the breakdown of collagen and elastin, reducing skin firmness.
• Environmental attacks : pollution, extreme weather conditions and irritants can damage the skin barrier, leading to loss of hydration and an increase in wrinkles.
• UV exposure : Ultraviolet (UV) rays are one of the main causes of premature skin aging. They penetrate deep layers of the skin, altering collagen and elastin fibers, which leads to a loss of elasticity and the appearance of wrinkles.

These various factors show the importance of adopting appropriate anti-aging care to prevent wrinkles and maintain healthy, firm skin.

The difference between anti-aging and anti-wrinkle creams

Anti-aging treatments and anti-wrinkle creams both aim to combat skin aging , but they differ in their objectives and composition.

Anti-aging creams:

• Comprehensive prevention : These products are designed to prevent various signs of aging, such as loss of firmness, the appearance of dark spots and dehydration.
• Key ingredients : They often contain antioxidants, vitamins (like vitamin C and E), as well as peptides that stimulate fibroblasts to produce more collagen and elastin.
• Multiple target : in addition to wrinkles, these creams treat all problems linked to skin aging by improving texture and cell renewal.

Anti-wrinkle creams:

• Targeted action on wrinkles : specifically formulated to reduce the appearance of existing wrinkles and prevent the appearance of new wrinkles.
• Specialized ingredients : often enriched with retinol, hyaluronic acid and other hydrating agents that fill in wrinkles and increase skin firmness.
• Occasional use : used mainly when the first wrinkles appear, these creams act directly on the areas concerned for local effectiveness.

Microneedle patch:

• Optimal absorption : Thanks to microneedle technology, the active ingredients are optimally absorbed by the skin. This superior penetration, with a penetration rate of more than 80%, guarantees visible results from the first application. Expression lines are reduced, and the skin appears smoother and radiant.
• Powerful Ingredients : Kósmopellis patches are composed of pure, cross-linked hyaluronic acid, as well as the anti-aging peptide AHP-8. Hyaluronic acid intensely hydrates and plumps the skin, while AHP-8 peptide stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, reducing wrinkles and improving skin firmness.
• Advanced technology : Microneedle patches use a microstructure made from 100% active ingredients, designed to penetrate the upper layer of the epidermis. This method allows a direct and deep release of active ingredients, maximizing their effectiveness.

It is essential to understand this difference to choose the treatment adapted to your needs. Anti-aging treatments offer a global preventive approach while anti-wrinkle creams provide a specific solution to visible wrinkles.

By integrating microneedle patches into your skincare routine, you benefit from a more effective solution than traditional creams and serums, combining global prevention and targeted treatment for visibly younger and radiant skin.

When to start using anti-wrinkle cream?

The recommended age for starting anti-wrinkle treatments varies depending on several factors, but it is commonly accepted that the use of these products can begin as early as the thirties. Here are some key points to consider:

• Beginning of visible signs of aging : around the age of 30, the production of collagen and elastin begins to decrease, leading to the first signs of wrinkles and loss of firmness.
• Early prevention : Some experts suggest incorporating antioxidant- and SPF-enriched moisturizers starting in your 20s to prevent damage from free radicals and UV rays.
• Individual factors : Skin type, lifestyle and exposure to environmental stress also influence when you should start using an anti-wrinkle cream.

For example :

• Dry skin may show signs of aging sooner than oily skin.
• A healthy lifestyle, rich in antioxidants and low in tobacco and alcohol, will delay the appearance of wrinkles.

Specific recommendations also include:

• Daily hydration with a cream containing antioxidants from the age of 20 to maintain elasticity.
• From the age of 35 , opt for products specifically formulated to fill wrinkles and stimulate cell regeneration.

Appropriate care from the first visible signs of aging will help maintain young, radiant skin for longer.

Expert Tips for Preventing Wrinkles

To effectively prevent wrinkles and maintain glowing skin, several strategies are recommended by experts:

• Specific care for the eye area : the skin around the eyes is particularly delicate and subject to the first signs of aging. Using an eye cream from your twenties can help prevent expression lines.
• Weekly exfoliation : exfoliation helps eliminate dead cells accumulated on the surface of the skin, thus promoting cell renewal. Opt for a gentle exfoliator suited to your skin type to avoid irritation.
• Daily hydration : Proper hydration is essential to maintain skin elasticity and firmness. Apply a cream or serum rich in antioxidants every day to protect your skin against external aggressions and fight free radicals.

“Hydration is the first line of defense against skin aging. Choosing a product rich in antioxidants like acerola or vitamin C can make all the difference,”

By incorporating these practices into your daily routine, you can help delay the appearance of wrinkles and maintain youthful, healthy skin.
