Can wrinkles be prevented?
The sun is the main cause of skin aging. The amount of wrinkles on your skin, be directly proportional to the amount of sun that has exposed during their lifetime.
Cigarette smoking can also contribute greatly to the appearance of wrinkles, as well as genetic inheritance we receive from our family.
The good news is that many wrinkles can actually be prevented. Therefore, as soon as possible, we must take a good sun protection, both in ourselves and in our children. To this:
• Always use a sunscreen with a protection factor of at least 15
• Always wear a hat with a brim and other protective clothing
• Do not sunbathe without protection and at the times inadequate
• Try to avoid sun exposure between ten am and three p.m.
Remember that sun exposure of a child or adolescent, differs greatly from that of a 30, 40 or 50 years. And even if your skin is already sun-damaged, has also taken into account it is never too late to start preventing.

Treatments
Currently, there are some very promising treatments for aging skin.
Retinoic acid, for example, is available in cream and has also been used very successfully to treat acne, improve skin texture, reduce abnormal pigmentation, and increase dermal collagen (the latter, it is applied daily several months).

Wrinkles or creases caused by facial expressions such as frowning or smiling, can be treated professionally by a dermatologist, using a treatment that involves injecting collagen or fat which acts as a “filler” skin. These dermal fillers are injected into the skin under the wrinkles and scars, to smooth wrinkles or scars.
Another remedy is botulinum toxin (botulinum toxin type A) that helps relax the muscles thus eliminating expression lines (frown lines) that cause new wrinkles and broken blood vessels. The latter can also be treated by laser.
