How do I get rid of wrinkles?


Question Posted Saturday November 15 2008, 5:40 pm

I am only 17 and have wrinkles on my face. The really noticeable wrinkles are my forehead wrinkles. It's really embarrassing to be so young with wrinkles.

I tan a lot and my mom said it was probably from that. I heard that tanning (especially excessive tanning) could cause wrinkles but I figured I wouldn't have them until I was older.

My forehead wrinkles look similar to this (only I'm a girl):

Is there anything I can do to make my forehead wrinkles go away? I know there are anti-aging wrinkle creams but I don't know if it would help since I'm so young. What is the best wrinkle cream to use?

I've seen products like Neutrogena Healthy Skin Anti Wrinkle Cream, Garnier Nutritioniste Ultra-Lift Treatment, L'oreal Paris: Re-Tightening Gel & Anti-Wrinkle Cream, Loreal Revitalift, and Olay Age Defying Anti-Wrinkle Cream. There are SO many I just don't know which anti wrinkle cream is the best and if it's safe for me to use!

Advice?

There is very little you can do to make wrinkles go away. Anti-wrinkle creams are best for preventing wrinkles, rather than fixing them.

A wrinkle is severe skin damage. Usually older people get them because that level of wear and tear usually takes time. But tanning will speed up your skin's age for sure. I'm sorry, but you're stuck with these wrinkles.

Your best bet is to stop tanning immediately, in tanning beds and in the sun. Wear a moisturizer every day with SPF30 so if any sun touches your skin it won't make it worse. Olay regenerist is a good brand to try. Wear a moisturizing cream to bed. Make sure you never sleep with any makeup on at all.

Eat lots of vegetables, raw leafy greens are great for the skin. Drink plenty of water, 5-8 glasses a day to keep your skin supple and moist (dry skin ages faster.) Make sure to moisturize your face and neck after every hot shower (hot water dries out the skin).

Also, I don't know if you smoke or drink, but these things ruin your skin like no one's business. You might also want to get the odd facial once in awhile. They run about $75 and every few months would do your damaged skin some good.

If you do these things, you can stop the wrinkles from progressing and your skin, while still a little wrinkled, will be healthier and won't get any worse.
