Eye & Face Wrinkles
Request an Appointment
Facial wrinkles are creases or folds in the skin that develop with time, often becoming more noticeable in areas where the skin is thinner or more exposed to external factors. They are not only a sign of aging but also reflect the impact of lifestyle choices and environmental exposure. Our oculoplastic surgeon understands that facial wrinkles can affect not only appearance but also confidence, and they are here to help guide you through understanding and managing them. Associated Eye Physicians & Surgeons of NJ proudly offers eye care at four convenient locations: Belleville serving Essex County, Rahway serving Middlesex and Union Counties, Jersey City serving Hudson County, and Union serving Union County.
Dr. Taj G. Khan is a board-certified ophthalmologist and Fellow of the American College of Surgeons, with a passion for enhancing both vision and appearance.
Understanding Facial Wrinkles
Facial wrinkles are the lines and creases that form on the skin, often appearing around the eyes, mouth, and forehead. They can be fine and barely noticeable or deep and prominent, depending on numerous factors. Essentially, facial wrinkles are the result of the skin losing its natural firmness, elasticity, and moisture over time.
When we smile, squint, or frown, the repeated movement of our facial muscles creates grooves beneath the surface of the skin. In younger skin, these temporary lines often smooth out quickly, but as the skin ages and loses its resilience, those grooves can become permanent features. Understanding the nature of these wrinkles is the first step toward effective prevention and treatment.
