Wrinkles seem to be an inevitable fact of life that is caused by both environmental and internal factors. We constantly preoccupy ourselves with these unsightly reminders of age, trying to hide them with numerous creams for wrinkles that promise to make them disappear. Yet, the successful treatment of wrinkles calls for a more biological understanding of the aging process and how wrinkles develop in order to truly be able to reverse the process. The studies, biological findings, and recently successful treatments have emerged from the realm of organic skin care.

Facial wrinkles appear first as fine lines and later as more prominent creases in areas most frequently used in facial expressions as well as those most exposed to UV rays. These areas include the forehead and around the eyes, nose and mouth. Furthermore, skin texture may also become a problem around the nose, cheeks, and the areas between the eyes and ear.

Internal and External Factors that Cause Skin Aging

The aging process and development of skin wrinkles is strongly correlated with changing hormone levels as well as decreasing metabolic activity and cell regeneration. Additionally, the thickness of the epidermis lessens over time and the cellular turnover rate of both the epidermis and stratum corneum decreases. As the dermis becomes thinner, the major structural molecules including collagen, elastin, and glycosaminoglycans drop in number. Age related changes in inter- and intra- cellular signaling also lead to decreases in collagen synthesis. Hyaluronic acid also becomes more scarce which lessens the skin's ability to retain water, consequently compromising moisture and firmness.

The largest external determinant of premature aging is UV exposure, however, also significant is exposure to environmental pollution and smoking. Recent findings show the interdependency of internal and external factors as it was discovered that external factors largely influence and accelerate internal aging. For example, the weakening of internal protective antioxidant mechanisms due to aging allows more external free radicals to enter the body which can harm and alter proteins and DNA. This harms the general health of your skin and quickens the aging process.

All these factors weaken the skin's elasticity, firmness and inner structure causing irregularities in skin texture and the development of fine lines and wrinkles.

Organic Skin Care to Treat Skin Wrinkles

So what could possibly address these factors and treat age related effects on skin including eye wrinkles and age spots? We all have roamed the aisles pondering overpriced products that promise to smooth wrinkles or claim to be the best eye cream. But these products often work as temporary fillers and never work to treat the principal causes of wrinkles below the skin's surface.

Luckily, new organic skin care has provided the answer with the discovery and success of a new natural serum created from the mollusk Crystomphalus Aspersa. This miraculous ingredient moisturizes as well as biologically restores the skin's ability to hold water. It triggers cell communication within the deepest layer of skin in order to rejuvenate cell reformation and the synthesis of collagen and elastin. This biological phenomenon nourishes the skin deep down and rejuvenates its vital structural elements that help smooth and prevent wrinkles naturally.

Being smart and avoiding aggravating environmental factors in combination with the use of this miraculous ingredient found in particular organic skin care products can change your perspective on getting older. A new organic skin care routine could smooth your complexion and give you that young look you never thought you would see again!
