Do you know that wrinkles can occur as early as the early twenties? This is particularly the case with sun-damaged skin. Let us take a look at the two types of wrinkles (with distinct, separate treatments):
Our eye wrinkles tell about our age more than any other features in our face. They also make us look tired, especially when we smile. Contrary to belief, the twinkle in your eyes does not have to have lines. Eye wrinkles can be easily treated. Let us understand how these folds and lines form.
Our eyes are draped with eye muscles that give our eyes expressions of our emotions. For some of us, when we smile, the overactive muscles contract and pull in the surrounding skin to create noticeable lines that make us look tired and aged. These are called “dynamic” wrinkles. Dynamic wrinkles occur as early as the twenties.
As a result of sun exposure and aging, collagen is lost from the thin skin around the eyes. In addition, as a result of constant expressions and muscle activity around the eyes, the skin starts to form cracks. These are called static wrinkles. A successful eye wrinkle treatment is to address both active and static wrinkles.
Ultraviolet radiation from the sun is one of the biggest causes of skin aging and loss of collagen. This leads to leathery skin, sun-related pigmentation problems such as sun-spots, liver spots etc. Long term exposure also leads to an increased risk of skin cancer. Excessive UV radiation, therefore, leads to the early formation of static lines around the eye area.
Smoking leads to increased oxidative stress to the skin, which breaks down collagen and elastin in the skin. There are also blood circulation issues because the skin vessels become constricted. All these lead to the thinning of the skin and formation of lines around the eye area.
Our eyes move and change along with the various facial expressions. Hence over-active expressions around the eyes can lead to excessive folding of the skin leading to active and static wrinkles. This can be easily treated with botulinum or Dysport treatments.
As the skin around the eyes is thinner than other areas of the face, it is also the area of the skin that folds and forms lines easily. Which means that as we age, one of the earliest parts of the face that form wrinkles are the eyes. For some individuals, the skin around the eyes is also thinner compared to others which means lines form at an earlier age for them. There are inter-racial differences in skin thickness around the eyes, i.e. typically Asian skin is thicker compared to caucasian skin. That means Caucasians probably have an earlier onset of lines around the eyes compared to Asians.
The strategy for successful eye wrinkle treatment in Singapore involves a comprehensive approach to both dynamic and static wrinkles. Dynamic wrinkles, caused by the over-activity of expression muscles around the eyes, can be effectively treated by reducing muscle movement. Botulinum injections are an excellent solution for relaxing these muscles, smoothing out the skin and softening active lines.
In addition to targeting dynamic wrinkles, improving skin thickness can reduce the visibility of wrinkles during facial expressions. Treatments like 10Therma, which uses radiofrequency energy, work to tighten and thicken the skin around the eyes. Another option is Zoey Skin, a customisable skin booster that deeply nourishes the skin, boosting hydration and enhancing collagen production to reduce fine lines.
For static wrinkles, that are visible even when the face is at rest, JaluPro Young Eye is an ideal treatment. This injectable solution combines amino acids and hyaluronic acid to restore lost volume and stimulate collagen production, helping to reduce static lines and rejuvenate the delicate under-eye area.
For those considering at-home care to complement professional treatments, maintaining a diet rich in vitamin C and amino acids can support skin health and boost collagen levels. Vitamin C also enhances your immune system and can be found in eye creams, serums and other skincare products. Remember: look for expert-recommended products like retinol eye creams to keep the signs of ageing at bay.
While at-home remedies like gentle facial massages with oils, like argan oil, can improve skin hydration, they will not completely eliminate wrinkles. That is why it is important for you to seek professional treatment to achieve long-lasting and effective results.
Zoey skin (previously known as baby skin) is Ozhean Zoey’s unique cocktail of concentrated HA, rejuran, whitening agent, and dyport for that instant gratification of a more poreless, smoother, lighter and LIFTED SKIN. It is delivered via a series of microjabs on the skin. With numbing cream the procedure has minimal discomfort.
10Therma uses radiofrequency energy to promote collagen regeneration naturally without discomfort or surgery. Our medical practitioners recommend this treatment to achieve a youthful and healthy glow while improving skin tone and texture and reducing fine lines and wrinkles.
Your skin stays well-protected from skin burns during this treatment, and you’ll see continuous improvements over the next six months.
Botulinum is a type of FDA-approved neurotoxin produced by a bacterium called Clostridium botulinum. This treatment was only used to treat facial wrinkles back in the 1990s. However, after years of expanding the treatment, it can now treat other areas and conditions, including excessive sweating, square jaws, and calf reduction.
The neurotoxin Botulinum temporarily blocks and relaxes muscles, preventing them from moving. Depending on where it was administered, Botulinum helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, stop excessive sweating, or relax jaw muscles, giving the face a V-shaped appearance.
Jalupro is an injectable treatment (skinbooster) and powerful collagen booster for facial lifting now available at Ozhean Zoey and is developed by Professional Derma, a Swiss biotechnology company. Here at Ozhean Zoey, we are dedicated to providing innovative and effective aesthetic solutions. Jalupro offers a path to smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin by addressing the root causes of skin ageing, such as collagen degradation and loss of skin elasticity.
Jalupro stands out as it targets the structural causes of skin ageing by using a unique blend of amino acids and hyaluronic acid to stimulate collagen production. It is used frequently in tandem with other collagen treatments such as Ulthera, 10therma, Lenisna and Radiesse, to enhance and maximise collagen production.
Zoey Skin is a customised skin booster that delivers deep hydration and boosts collagen production in the skin around the eyes. By thickening and hydrating the skin, it helps to smooth fine lines and reduce the appearance of wrinkles, particularly in delicate areas such as under the eyes. Zoey Skin works by stimulating collagen and elastin, essential proteins that keep skin firm and youthful.
Botulinum is an effective treatment for dynamic wrinkles, which are caused by repeated facial movements such as smiling or squinting. It works by temporarily relaxing the muscles around the eyes, preventing them from contracting and forming lines. The result is smoother skin and reduced appearance of crow’s feet and other expression lines.
10Therma uses radiofrequency energy to heat the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production and tightening the skin. It is particularly effective for fine lines and mild sagging around the eyes. By improving skin elasticity and firmness, 10Therma helps to reduce wrinkles and provide a more youthful, lifted appearance. It is a non-invasive treatment with minimal downtime, making it ideal for those seeking a non-surgical solution to eye wrinkles.
JaluPro Young Eye is an injectable treatment that combines amino acids and hyaluronic acid to rejuvenate the skin around the eyes. It restores lost volume, deeply hydrates the skin, and stimulates collagen production, making it an excellent option for treating static wrinkles and fine lines. The treatment also improves skin texture and reduces dark circles, giving the under-eye area a smoother and more refreshed look.
Yes, combining treatments often provides optimal results. For example, Botulinum can be used to smooth dynamic wrinkles, while JaluPro Young Eye or Zoey Skin can hydrate and improve the skin’s overall quality. 10Therma can be added for skin tightening to enhance both texture and firmness around the eyes. A tailored combination of these treatments can provide a comprehensive approach to reducing wrinkles and rejuvenating the eye area.
These treatments are suitable for individuals in their late 20s and above who are looking to prevent or treat signs of ageing around the eyes. Botulinum is ideal for addressing dynamic wrinkles early, while JaluPro Young Eye and Zoey Skin are excellent for maintaining skin hydration and firmness. 10Therma is beneficial for those in their 30s or older who are noticing mild to moderate skin sagging or loss of elasticity.
