Wrinkles on the face appear regardless of the condition of the skin in strictly defined places. This happens in case of weakening or disease of the internal organs associated with these places, as well as due to “failures” in other bodies: energy, thought and consciousness.
The picture shows the most common wrinkles.

1. Wrinkles of the mind.
A human head is projected on the frontal part of the face. Thus, wrinkles on the forehead may indicate excessive caution and mental overload, and in some cases, headaches, cerebrovascular accidents, etc. If you are concerned about deep wrinkles on your forehead, then perhaps you will be consoled by the words of Pythagoras: “Never consult those people whose foreheads are smooth - they never reflect.”

2. Wisdom wrinkles.
On the body of thought, the shoulders symbolize the ability to wisely and with dignity endure the ups and downs of life, the ability to find positive aspects in unpleasant situations. If the shoulders are tired, drooping, and even ache, then one can assume, in particular, an inability to overcome hardships and adversities, a feeling of helplessness, hopelessness and anxiety.

3. Wrinkles of surprise.
They are located in that part of the face that is associated with the condition of the forearms and elbows. On the body of thought, elbows symbolize a change in directions of areas of activity, readiness to perceive new life or professional experiences. To avoid wrinkles of surprise, you need to perceive everything that happens to you adequately, and not be surprised at every occasion.

4. Wrinkles of stubbornness.
Wrinkles in this part of the face are associated with the condition of the neck. On a mental level, they talk about stubbornness, unwillingness to consider different sides of an issue, which often leads to insoluble problems, and on a physical level, they talk about pain in the neck.

5. Wrinkles of loneliness.
Wrinkles in this part of the face indicate diseases of the thyroid gland and upper back. On the body, thoughts are a feeling that you are being attacked by life, a lack of moral support, a feeling of loneliness and uselessness.

6. Scrupulousness wrinkles.
Fingers are projected in the area of ​​the crow's feet, symbolizing the little things in life. Those with such wrinkles are overly attentive to details and details, paying too close attention to the little things in life. Crow's feet can occur, in particular, with pain, numbness, and tingling in the fingers.

7. Retrograde wrinkles.
Wrinkles in this part of the face indicate chronic diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. On the body, thoughts are a fear of the new, an inability to assimilate this new, to keep up with the times.

8. Vitality wrinkle.
This is more likely not a wrinkle, but a fold of skin, a groove. In physiognomy, much attention is paid to this groove. It reflects the state of almost all organs associated with digestion, as well as the buttocks and thighs - a stable support for the body and the main “mechanisms” for moving forward, both physically and at the level of the body of thought.
In other words, only a person with a reliable digestive system and standing firmly on his feet will have the strength to move forward.
A well-formed (that is, clearly defined, not smeared) philtrum indicates increased vitality and the ability to quickly recuperate. A deep and long groove indicates longevity.

9. Shyness wrinkles.
They talk about diseases of the stomach and duodenum. And if they are located around the entire mouth, they also indicate weakness and pain in the legs and poor bowel function. Most often, shyness wrinkles occur in people who are unsure of themselves, experience fear, and an urgent need for protection and patronage.
10. Wrinkles of pessimism.
They are located in the part of the face that is associated with kidney conditions. The “mental” causes of kidney disease include harsh criticism, disappointment, failure, and the causes of adrenal disease include defeatist attitudes, an indifferent attitude towards oneself, and anxiety. There may also be an indication of increased stress or stomach diseases,
duodenum and gallbladder.

11. Wrinkles of disappointment.
These wrinkles are associated with many important internal organs. The presence of these wrinkles suggests malfunctions not only of the kidneys, but also of the liver, gallbladder, intestines and even the heart (since the kidneys, which regulate the composition and thickness of the blood, have a direct effect on the functioning of the heart muscle, which tirelessly pumps blood).
At the mental level, wrinkles of disappointment indicate a lack of feeling of joy in life and love. According to physiognostics, the heart is the center of love, protection and security, and the blood is an expression of joy, energy circulating freely in the body.

12. Wrinkles of self-doubt.
These wrinkles can appear due to ulcerative formations in the intestines. On the body of thought, they express reluctance and even fear of getting rid of everything that is outdated, unnecessary, and a firm belief in their inadequacy.

13. Wrinkles of indifference.
They are similar to wrinkles, which on a mental level can lead to problems in the lungs (depression, sadness, fear of accepting new things, fatigue from life), in the spleen (obsession, obsessive ideas), in the liver (anger, short temper, inability to manage one’s emotions, constant complaints, justifying oneself), in the knees (stubbornness and pride, unwillingness to give in), in the legs (collapse of ideals), in the feet (loss of reference points in the surrounding reality).

14. Wrinkles of fear.
These wrinkles can occur due to problems in the intestines, hemorrhoids. On the body of thought they reflect the fear of not meeting a deadline, anger in the past, fear of parting (with a person, work, thing). The feet are projected in this same place, pain in which may arise due to fears of the future and the fear of doing the first

Hello, dear ladies! We’re already talking about wrinkles, we’ve said so much, but what are wrinkles? Where do they come from and what do they mean? Our prosperity or, on the contrary, failures? Have you ever asked yourself such questions? But I need to know everything. You have to stick your (long-suffering) nose everywhere...

Philosophers say this - life lines on the face. And it’s true: events that are important to us and leave a strong impression slightly change our character, and with it our facial expression, sometimes even our facial expressions. Facial expressions change - otherwise the facial muscles tense. And what does it mean? That now wrinkles on the face will form a little differently, the meaning of which will tell a psychology expert about our character.

Science or pseudoscience

During the existence of mankind, it seems that there was no parameter by which they did not try to determine the character of a person. Astrology, palmistry, numerology, the science of determining character by name - I don’t remember what it’s called - graphology, physiognomy. And if in some of these sciences (or rather teachings) you involuntarily feel something dubious, then the last one from this list seems to have some real basis.

What causes wrinkles to form? I will list the main factors (well, those that I know):

  1. genetics: well, this is clear to everyone, if a mother’s wrinkles began to appear late, there is a high chance that things will be similar for her daughter;
  2. unhealthy diet – an unbalanced diet will lead to a lack of natural collagen, wrinkles will form faster;
  3. the same applies to a healthy lifestyle: any bad habits will not slow down to “throw a net” over our faces;
  4. age;
  5. frequent stress;
  6. sudden weight loss (or vice versa);
  7. any chronic or acute diseases accompanied by swelling, increased dryness of the skin, contribute to the formation of skin folds;
  8. features of facial expressions - those who often smile and squint, facial wrinkles appear earlier;
  9. poor skin care - everything is clear here too: insufficient nutrition of the skin, in women - the use of cheap low-quality cosmetics, long exposure to the sun, wind without protective equipment dry out the skin and contribute to the early formation of wrinkles.

So obvious...

There are at least three ways to tell your character by looking at your wrinkles.

Physiognomy, a science that connects facial features with character, has existed since time immemorial. According to historians, Aristotle first described this science in one of his treatises, Hippocrates actively used it in his practice, and the no less famous Charles Darwin, “thanks to” whom we turned from divine beings into descendants of monkeys, tried to scientifically substantiate physiognomy.

Note: according to physiognomy, each of our facial features corresponds to a certain character trait; same with wrinkles.

But most of the results are usually far-fetched. For example, a low forehead, according to physiognomists, indicates low intelligence and the “bestial” nature of a person, but I personally know a couple of professors with a low forehead, which in no way interferes with their scientific work.

Advice: don’t particularly trust facial features, look at his expression, mobility, changes - this will say much more about the person’s character.

Who to believe or Predskazamus suffered

Psychologists have proven that our judgments about a person’s character based on appearance are very superficial and depend on our “tuning” to this person. To do this, the following experiment was carried out:

Some of the students showed a portrait of a person about whom it was said that this was a criminal. The students immediately discovered in the face of the criminal characteristic features indicating bloodthirstiness, mental imbalance, and a low level of development. The next group was shown a portrait of a scientist. His high forehead and noble gaze clearly indicated high intelligence, a slightly absent-minded “professorial” character, etc.

Have you guessed it yet? Yes, it was a portrait of the same person. Preliminary psychological adjustment contributed to the fact that students looked for in the face of the person under study those traits that they expected to see in a criminal/scientist - they looked for and... found.

Wrinkles and health

There is a much greater chance of learning about a person’s illnesses from wrinkles. A good diagnostician sometimes only needs one look at a patient to identify the disease and prescribe treatment. And most importantly, everything here is scientifically substantiated: edema is a sign of unhealthy kidneys, a diseased heart or an underactive thyroid gland; Early crow's feet are a consequence of the habit of squinting, which may be caused by poor eyesight, for example.

So, according to medical research:

  1. Yellowish skin indicates liver problems.
  2. Early expression lines are dry skin; the cause may be problems with the liver, gastrointestinal tract, thyroid gland, or iodine deficiency.
  3. Horizontal wrinkles on the forehead: headaches, and according to physiognomy they are a sign of high intelligence;
  4. Vertical wrinkle on the bridge of the nose: tendency to depression, liver problems.
  5. Deep nasolabial folds tell the doctor about problems with the gastrointestinal tract and teeth
  6. The mesh around the eyes is a lack of vitamins.
  7. Folds forming on the sides of the cheeks. We think about how to remove them, not suspecting that they signal metabolic and hormonal problems, circulatory diseases, and a tendency to hypertension.

My thoughts, my... wrinkles

Personally, I trust officially recognized sciences more, so I believe that psychologists can best judge a person’s character. And the psychology textbooks are good books, they even have pictures. And they often mention facial expressions and wrinkles that are characteristic of different personality types. Well, it's simple here:

  1. In the corners of the eyes and mouth - a person often smiles;
  2. Crow's feet - attentive;
  3. Vertical wrinkles between the eyebrows are frown lines;
  4. Wrinkles above the eyebrows can be a sign of depression, confusion, and memory problems.

Tell me, have you probably met older people more than once, in whose eyes the sparkle of youth shines? Their smiles fold their faces into the usual wrinkles, but no one pays attention to this anymore. Youth is in our soul, and the secret of youth is a positive attitude towards the world.

So smile, be happy – and stay young! And, of course, subscribe to my updates. Goodbye!
