Wrinkles around the eyes at 30: what to do

Every girl at any age strives to look beautiful, young and well-groomed. But, most often, by the age of 30, and sometimes earlier, girls begin to notice wrinkles around the eyes. It is there that the skin is thin and delicate, there are almost no muscles that could maintain the elasticity of the skin, there is almost no sebum and sebaceous glands. Alas, this is a natural process determined by the very structure of the skin in this place. Unfortunately, we cannot change the structure of the skin, but we can begin to carefully and properly care for it, ensuring its youth and delaying the signs of aging.

Causes of wrinkles around the eyes at 30 years old

There are several reasons why wrinkles around the eyes appear at such a fairly early age:

1. Hereditary predisposition
2. Bad habits (abuse of alcoholic beverages, smoking)
3. Insufficient skin care around the eyes
4. Increased facial activity
   
   
   
   
5. Prolonged exposure to the sun
6. Use of low-quality cosmetics
7. Poor nutrition
8. Stress, overwork

If you start immediately and effectively deal with small wrinkles that have appeared, you can achieve very good results. There are many ways available today to combat wrinkles around the eyes.

Modern cosmetological care methods

How to prevent wrinkles around the eyes at an early age

To prevent the appearance of wrinkles, it is necessary to combat the causes of their appearance, which were already mentioned above in the article.

At first glance, this task is impossible. But modern cosmetic formulas and cosmetic procedures are capable of much. We tell you how to correct crow's feet and ensure their prevention.

When do wrinkles appear under the eyes?

Their peculiarity is that due to active facial expressions and frequent blinking, they can become more noticeable during the day, so that by the evening the skin around the eyes will look older than in the morning.

This is an irreversible process due to the fact that after 30 years the processes of synthesis of elastin, collagen, and hyaluronic acid slow down in the body. Such wrinkles are noticeable even when the face is at rest.

Prevention of wrinkles around the eyes - regular moisturizing of the skin.

Causes

Peculiarities of skin structure

Eye spots and crow's feet form around the eyes because the skin in this area is more vulnerable than in others. What makes her so sensitive?

The skin on the eyelids is about 6 times thinner than the skin on the cheeks, so it is more susceptible to stretching and wrinkles.

The subcutaneous fat layer in this area is insignificant.

The number of sebaceous glands is reduced, so the protective hydrolipid film is thinner.

Active facial expressions

we express emotions (smile, frown);

Every minute we make about 20 blinks.

This gigantic load cannot but affect the appearance of the skin around the eyes.

Age-related changes

Photoaging

The harmful effects of rays on the skin (formation of wrinkles, pigmentation) are known to everyone. But if earlier dermatologists believed that only sunglasses could protect the skin of the eyelids from ultraviolet radiation, now they have begun to produce special sunscreens for the area around the eyes.

One of these products was developed in the laboratories of the La Roche-Posay brand.

Bad habits

Without exaggeration, this is the number one enemy of the skin. When inhaling tobacco smoke, the capillaries spasm and remain in good shape for about 2 hours. Approximately the same amount of time is the break between two cigarettes, that is, the smoker’s skin is in a state of stress and oxygen starvation all day. And don't forget about the toxicity of tobacco.

On the one hand, there is an opinion that one glass of red wine a day is good for health, since grapes contain antioxidant polyphenols. On the other hand, alcohol, along with tobacco, is one of the culprits in the deterioration of skin condition. Two extra glasses of wine every day can lead to the appearance of dehydration lines around the eyes and redness of the skin in the area.

Vision problems

Caring for the skin around the eyes

designed specifically for this area;

passed ophthalmological testing.

Cleansing

When washing your face with gel or foam, try not to rub the skin around your eyes so as not to injure it.

To remove eye makeup, special products are produced that do not irritate the skin and mucous membranes. Apply milk or makeup remover lotion to the skin, then carefully remove with a cotton pad, avoiding rubbing and stretching movements. Apply mascara remover to cotton pads, apply them to closed eyes for a few seconds, then carefully remove any remaining makeup.

Due to the fact that the skin around the eyes is thin and sensitive, exfoliation in this area is contraindicated. The maximum that can be offered here for deep cleansing is a cream containing fruit acids.

Hydration and nutrition

Cream filler will quickly reduce the depth of wrinkles around the eyes.

Cosmetics for wrinkles around the eyes

Anti-aging eye creams usually have a rich texture and sometimes come in balm form. It is better to use the cream twice a day: in the morning and in the evening - an hour and a half before going to bed to avoid swelling.

Cream filler works quickly, instantly filling wrinkles (active ingredients can be hyaluronic acid or silicones). Often the result is noticeable only before the first wash, although there are products with a cumulative effect.

Serum and fluid

The most comfortable textures for eyelid skin are light serums and fluids. In addition to anti-aging and moisturizing components, they may contain reflective microparticles that visually even out the skin and give it radiance.

Masks for wrinkles around the eyes can be fabric, cream, gel, day and night. Most often, they work as SOS products and are used when you need to quickly get your eyelid skin in order - for example, before an important event. It is recommended to use masks no more than once a week due to the high concentration of active ingredients in them.

As a rule, eyelid gels have a draining effect and help get rid of puffiness and dark circles under the eyes. They are suitable for maintaining skin elasticity.

Cosmetological methods

Botox

Botox injections are the most popular procedure for eliminating and preventing wrinkles in the eye area. Several million such injections are performed annually around the world (6 million in the USA alone). The active ingredient in the drug is botulinum toxin. It blocks the muscles, they stop contracting, as a result of which facial activity weakens and the skin relaxes.

There are also cosmetics with a Botox-like effect. The functions of botulinum toxin can be performed by muscle relaxant peptides. The effect of using such means, of course, is not so pronounced, but still noticeable.

Mesotherapy

The mesotherapy procedure involves the introduction of cocktails based on vitamins and microelements into the skin in order to increase the density and elasticity of the skin and improve blood microcirculation. In addition, such preparations may contain hyaluronic acid for moisturizing or antioxidants to prevent skin aging.

Biorevitalization

Boirevitalization is an injection of drugs based on unstabilized hyaluronic acid (amino acids and peptides may also be present in the composition). This procedure helps to moisturize the skin, even out its tone, correct wrinkles, increase turgor and tone. Depending on your skin's needs, you may need one to three treatments.

Photorejuvenation

This hardware technique uses flashes of light of a certain frequency to combat wrinkles. First, the cosmetologist applies a contact gel to the skin, then uses a device with a special attachment designed for the delicate area around the eyes.

Have you tried it? I think Botox is good to inject into the forehead. But around the eyes... the face can become somehow motionless and even scary about smiling. It's probably better to inject hyaluronic acid.
This is the first time I’ve heard about Elos) I think it’s better to do this in winter, as it’s a laser that removes the top layer of skin.

Does your cosmetologist give you colitis? To be honest, it's scary. To put it mildly, I saw not very good results. We need to look for a good master in this area. Is this pleasure generally expensive?

Ginseng cream for the skin around the eyes. Nevskaya Cosmetics. Very praised. I decided to try it myself. It costs about 50 rubles.

I would like to try ginseng cream.

There are such methods - 1) Laser nanoperforation - it can be done on delicate areas (the area around the eyes, hands, neck, décolleté) has a tightening effect - the skin after the procedure will be more elastic, smooth out, small and medium wrinkles. The result is amazing, the effect is up to 5 years. 2) Beauty vaccinations - Botox, Dysport, (number of units only in consultation with a doctor) cost 1 unit - 279 rubles - blocking muscle movement - wrinkles are smoothed out, and then you get used to not frowning))) 3) Biorevitalization (good both on its own and in combination with nanoperforation) - deep hydration of the skin also helps smooth out wrinkles and also heals the skin from the inside. There are many methods, which one is most suitable for you - it is best, of course, to consult a dermatocosmetologist.

I inject biorevitalization periodically. Nothing helps:((The skin is so thin and dry that there are wrinkles. uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh of creams. I have tried almost everything that I can afford (about 3 thousand). Now I’m looking for a cream for the area around the eyes. HELP!! It’s impossible to live like this:) )))) These wrinkles.

Does it help? I am currently using Lancome Genifique youth activator cream. I like the texture and in my opinion it smoothed out some wrinkles)

This cream is not for your age. And for those over 40. And when I wanted to buy it, they told me that at 46 it’s too early to use this. You should think twice before smearing any *** under your eyes!

Take BL cosmetics (Novosibirsk), choose a program for your skin, after a month you will forget about the problem - it’s simple. Only branded trading floors and you can only buy with a card (I can tell you how and what)

Proven creams, the results are noticeable within a week.

Who told you? Salesman? What can I say if it doesn’t even get rid of wrinkles for me?! In principle, the cream is suitable if it does not sting the eyelids. There are heavier textures, and those that pinch. Can you recommend a cream for my age?

The cream is suitable if it noticeably improves the appearance of the skin, noticeably moisturizes, and the skin glows. I tried all types of oils under my eyes until I got rid of noticeable wrinkles under my eyes. As a result, now there is a cream for children, for the face, Weleda. Wrinkles are long gone, but I like the effect of radiance and strong skin. Flabby skin after all these creams that are produced for eye care. So that women from 25 to 30 years old should buy eye cream.

There are special gymnastics for the muscles around the eyes. Search the Internet.
