Can wrinkles really be improved by moisturizing alone? Summary of effective care methods for people in their 40s.

Improving wrinkles is this sincere concern of many women in their 40s. Even if you use expensive moisturizing creams and continue to carefully care for your skin, the wrinkles around your eyes and mouth that you see in the mirror only get deeper and deeper day by day. Do we just have to give up?" Are you feeling this kind of anxiety?

In fact, there are two types of wrinkles: those that can be improved by moisturizing and those that are limited to moisturizing alone. If you do not know the difference and continue with incorrect care, unfortunately, you will not get the desired effect.

Here, we clarify the relationship between wrinkle types and moisturizing from the perspective of dermatology, and suggest a truly effective care method for your wrinkles. From the use of quasi-drugs to the selection of cosmetic treatments when necessary, this section comprehensively explains smart wrinkle care strategies for people in their 40s and beyond. The information here will help you find the best approach for your wrinkles without wasting time and money.

 

Medical explanation of the relationship between wrinkle types and moisturizing

Have you ever experienced "I moisturize well, but my wrinkles don't improve?" In fact, not all wrinkles can be improved by moisturizing. There are two main types of wrinkles: wrinkles that can be improved by moisturizing and wrinkles that are limited to moisturizing alone, and each type of wrinkle has different skin layers and causes.

Here, from the perspective of dermatology, we will explain in detail the different types of wrinkles, their characteristics, and how moisturizing is effective in treating them. By correctly understanding which type of wrinkles you have, you will be able to avoid unnecessary care and choose a truly effective approach.

Difference between epidermal dry fine wrinkles and deep dermal wrinkles

Depending on the depth of the skin in which they occur, wrinkles are broadly classified into epidermal and dermal wrinkles. Understanding this difference is the first step toward effective wrinkle care.

Epidermal wrinkles (fine dry wrinkles) are shallow wrinkles caused by a lack of moisture in the epidermal layer, the outermost layer of the skin. Fine lines and wrinkles that appear around the eyes and mouth are typical examples, and become more noticeable when the skin's texture is disturbed. These wrinkles can be expected to improve in a relatively short period of time with proper moisturization.

On the other hand, dermal wrinkles (deep wrinkles) are caused by the decrease and degeneration of collagen and elastin in the dermis, the deeper layer of the skin. These wrinkles, such as the laugh lines and vertical lines between the eyebrows, gradually become deeper with age. Unfortunately, these wrinkles are difficult to fundamentally improve with moisturizing alone.

The anti-wrinkle product evaluation guidelines of the Society of Cosmetic Chemists of Japan classify wrinkles into six levels according to their depth and form. By understanding this classification, you will be able to select the best care method for your wrinkles.

grade	Characteristics of wrinkles	Effect of moisturizing	Recommended Care
Grade 1	Indistinct shallow wrinkles (Skin texture level)	◎Very effective	Moisturizing-centered care
Grade 2	Clear, shallow wrinkles (Epidermal dryness fine lines and wrinkles)	◎Very effective	Moisture-enhancing care
Grade 3	Clear, shallow wrinkles (Epidermis to upper dermis)	○Effective	Moisturizing + active ingredients
Grade 4	Slightly deeper wrinkles (reaching the middle dermis)	limited	Active ingredient center
Grade 5	Deep wrinkles (Reaches deep dermis)	×x Not very effective	Quasi-drugs and cosmetic medicine
Grade 6	Very deep wrinkles (Reaches subcutaneous tissue)	×x No effect	Cosmetic Medicine Recommended

Thus, moisturizing is very effective for grade 1-2 shallow wrinkles, but as the grade increases, the effectiveness of moisturizing becomes more limited. Especially for deeper wrinkles of grade 4 and above, it is important to consider not only moisturizing but also quasi-drugs containing wrinkle-improving active ingredients and, if necessary, cosmetic treatment.

How to distinguish between wrinkles for which moisturizing is effective and wrinkles for which it has limited effect

Are your wrinkles the type that can be improved by moisturizing, or do they require a different approach? This identification is essential for effective wrinkle care. Here we introduce a self-checking method that anyone can easily perform.

tension test

• Gently pull on the skin around the wrinkle.
• Wrinkles disappear → Epidermal dry fine lines (moisturizing effect ◎)
• Wrinkles remain → deep dermal wrinkles (moisturizing effect △)

Check after moisturizing

• Observe skin immediately after plenty of moisturizer
• Wrinkles become less noticeable → Mainly due to dryness (can be improved with continued moisturizing)
• No change → structural problem (another approach is needed)

facial expression check

• Comparison of wrinkles when the face is expressionless and when the face is expressive
• Appears only during facial expressions → Expression wrinkles (initially preventable with moisturizer)
• Remains even without expression → Fixed wrinkles (limited moisturizing effect)

The characteristics of wrinkles vary with age and location. In general, fine wrinkles around the eyes that appear in the 20s and 30s are often caused by dryness and tend to improve with moisturizing. On the other hand, wrinkles that become more noticeable in one's 40s and onward, such as the lines around the eyes and between the eyebrows, involve changes in the dermis and are more difficult to improve with moisturizing alone.

part	Characteristics of the 20s and 30s	Characteristics after 40s	Effect of moisturizing
skin round one's eyes	Fine lines and wrinkles due to dryness	Deep wrinkles with sagging	20s-30s: ◎ After 40s: ○
the mouth	Shallow fine lines and wrinkles due to dryness	Deepening of the laugh lines	Fine wrinkles: ◎ Lines: △
forehead	Temporary wrinkles due to facial expressions	Fixed horizontal wrinkles	Initial: ○ After fixation: x
head	Lateral wrinkles due to dryness	Deep horizontal wrinkles due to sagging	Superficial: ○ Deep: △

Thus, by correctly identifying the type of wrinkles, one can choose a realistic and effective approach without expecting too much from moisturizing care. Intensive moisturizing care for wrinkles that can be improved by moisturizing and early consideration of the next step (active ingredients or cosmetic treatment) for wrinkles that cannot be improved by moisturizing are the keys to smart wrinkle care in one's 40s.

 

Actual moisturizing care for wrinkles on the neck and forehead

In the previous chapter, we learned that some wrinkles can be improved with moisturizing and others cannot. So what kind of moisturizing care is actually effective for the wrinkles on the neck and forehead that many women suffer from?

In fact, the neck and forehead have very different skin characteristics and require different approaches to moisturizing. The neck has thin skin and tends to dry out easily, while the forehead has active sebum secretion, requiring consideration of the balance between moisturizing and sebum. Both of these areas are also easily affected by daily posture and facial expressions.

Here, we will explain in detail specific moisturizing care methods that you can start practicing today, based on an understanding of the characteristics of each of the neck and forehead. By learning how to moisturize properly, you can effectively prevent and improve wrinkles in these areas.

Causes of Neck Wrinkles and Effective Moisturizing Methods

It is often said that "age shows in the neck." Neck wrinkles greatly affect the appearance of a person's age. Many people may take good care of their face, but tend to forget to take care of their neck.

However, neck skin is more delicate than facial skin and without proper moisturizing care, wrinkles can develop rapidly. The skin of the neck has the following characteristics compared to the skin of the face

• Thin skin: The skin of the neck is only about 2/3 the thickness of the face, and the dermis layer is especially thin, making it less capable of retaining moisture.
• Few sebaceous glands: Few sebaceous glands make it difficult for the natural moisturizing factor, the sebaceous film, to form, making the skin dry easily.
• Frequent movement: frequent up-down and side-to-side movement, which causes high physical stress on the skin
• Effects of UV rays: Easy to inadvertently forget to apply sunscreen and accumulate UV damage.

In addition, lifestyle habits unique to modern people also aggravate neck wrinkles. The downward posture caused by smartphone use, sleeping on pillows that are too high, and slouching can put extra strain on the skin of the neck and promote the formation of wrinkles. In particular, the forward leaning posture known as "smartphone neck" is a major cause of horizontal wrinkles on the neck, even in people in their 20s.

Given these characteristics of the neck, it is important to apply effective moisturizing care. Below is a summary of specific moisturizing care procedures for neck wrinkles.

step	Care Contents	Key Points and Notes	Items used
1) Cleansing	Remove makeup and dirt as gently as you would your face.	Do not scrub, but gently from top to bottom.	Milk or cream type
(2) Face wash	Wash with plenty of lather to envelop the skin.	Don't forget to go to the back of the neck. Rinse with lukewarm water.	Facial cleanser with moisturizing ingredients
3) Lotion	While warming the palms of your hands, blend from the bottom to the top.	Apply 2 to 3 layers of water to keep the skin well hydrated.	Highly moisturizing lotion
(4) Serum	Focused application to wrinkle areas	Gently blend along the horizontal wrinkles.	Moisturizing + anti-aging ingredients
(5) Cream	Apply thickly to the entire neck and moisturize with a wrap effect.	Don't forget to cover the décolleté. Massage is also effective.	Rich, highly moisturizing cream
6) Daytime care	Always wear sunscreen	Reapply every 2-3 hours	Sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher

It is especially important that moisturizing care not end with the face, but always extend to the neck. Instead of "just doing it on top of the face," be sure to treat the neck as part of the face and at the same level of care. In addition, incorporating a neck pack or oil massage once or twice a week will provide a deeper moisturizing effect.

Moisturizing approach to forehead wrinkles

Wrinkles on the forehead are a sign of expressiveness, but they are also an area that is difficult to improve once they have taken hold. Especially in people in their 40s and beyond, expression lines and dry lines tend to appear in combination, increasing the importance of proper moisturizing care.

There are two major types of forehead wrinkles, each with different moisturizing benefits.

• Expression wrinkles: Lateral wrinkles caused by raised eyebrows or startled expressions.
• Dry wrinkles: fine, crepe-like wrinkles caused by dry skin

The way to tell the difference is simple. If no wrinkles are visible in an expressionless state, the wrinkles are expression wrinkles; if fine wrinkles are always visible, they are most likely dry wrinkles. In many cases, the two are intermingled and require moisturizing care that addresses both.

The forehead is located in the "T-zone" of the face, where sebum secretion is most active. For this reason, some people think that moisturizing is unnecessary because the forehead is sticky, but this is a big misunderstanding. In fact, sebum and moisture are two different things, and even if there is a lot of sebum, the skin is often in a state of "inner dryness" due to a lack of moisture.

Excessive sebum secretion may rather be a sign of moisture deficiency. When the skin feels dry, it tries to compensate by overproducing sebum. To break this vicious cycle, proper moisturizing is essential.

Moisturizing care for forehead wrinkles is not just applying moisturizers, but also a combination of sebum balancing, massage, and lifestyle modification. The daily accumulation of these efforts will create a youthful forehead in 5 or 10 years.

 

Synergistic effect of quasi-drug active ingredients and moisturizing

Practicing moisturizing care on the neck and forehead may not have the desired effect. In particular, it is true that for grade 3 or higher wrinkles reported in the previous chapter, there is a limit to the improvement that can be achieved by moisturizing alone. It is in such cases that we would like to consider the use of "quasi-drugs" as the next step.

In recent years, a number of quasi-drugs containing active ingredients that have been approved to improve wrinkles have appeared on the market, greatly expanding our options. Many of you may have heard of retinol, niacinamide, Neil One, and others, but may not know the difference.

In fact, these active ingredients have a higher synergistic effect when combined with moisturizing. By using active ingredients after moisturizing to improve the skin's barrier function, the ingredients will penetrate better and reduce irritation. Here we will explain in detail the characteristics of the main active ingredients, how to select them, and how to use them to maximize their effects.

Characteristics and selection of 5 wrinkle-improving active ingredients

Each of the wrinkle-improving active ingredients approved as quasi-drugs approaches wrinkles through a different mechanism. Selecting the right ingredients for your skin type and wrinkle condition is the first step to effective care. Currently, there are five major wrinkle-fighting ingredients approved as quasi-drugs in Japan. By understanding the characteristics of each, you can find the best ingredient for you.

active ingredient	Main action	Features & Benefits	important point	Recommended skin type
retinol	Promotes collagen production Normalization of turnover	Quicker realization of effects For fine to deep wrinkles Increased elasticity	. Easy to feel stimulation Be careful of ultraviolet rays. Need break-in period	Normal to oily skin Advanced Aging Care
niacinamide	Promotes collagen production Inhibition of melanin production	Hypoallergenic and easy to use Expected to have a whitening effect . Highly moisturizing.	It takes time to feel the effect. Limited effect on deep wrinkles	Sensitive to dry skin for beginners
Neil Wang.	Neutrophil elastase inhibition Inhibition of dermal degradation	Ingredient approved for the first time in Japan Effective for deep wrinkles Unique mechanism	Limited products High price	All skin types Those who are concerned about deep wrinkles
Rice Power No. 11	Promotes ceramide production Improved water retention function	. Very high moisture retention Skin-friendly Effective for dry fine lines and wrinkles	Limited effect on deep wrinkles Little immediate effect.	Dry to very dry skin Moisture retention oriented
argillin	neurotransmitter suppression Prevention of expression wrinkles	Specializes in expression wrinkles Botox-like action Highly safe	Quasi-drugs are scarce. Effects are mild.	Those who are concerned about expression wrinkles Prevention-oriented

To maximize the effects of active ingredients, it is important to combine them with moisturizing ingredients. Moisturizing improves the skin's barrier function, allowing the active ingredients to penetrate more easily and reducing irritation. Examples of particularly effective combinations are as follows

• Retinol × Ceramide: Enhances barrier function while alleviating retinol irritation
• Niacinamide x hyaluronic acid: Promotes collagen production while enhancing water retention
• Neil One × Collagen: Supplies firmness while protecting the structure of the dermis

This strategic combination of active ingredients and moisturizing ingredients makes the approach to wrinkles more effective. Choosing the right active ingredients for your skin type is important not only for effectiveness, but also to avoid skin problems.

Effective use and timing

Even if you have chosen good active ingredients, if you use them incorrectly, they will not be effective enough. Quasi-drugs containing active ingredients are generally recommended to be used twice a day, morning and evening. However, the optimal timing differs depending on the ingredients, so please refer to the following.

[Morning care procedure

1. face-washing
2. Lotion (moisturizer)
3. Serum (niacinamide and other daytime ingredients)
4. Emulsion and cream (moisturizer)
5. Sunscreen (required)

[Night care procedures

1. Cleansing and face wash
2. Lotion (moisturizer)
3. Serum (retinol and other night-specific ingredients)
4. Eye cream (intensive care for the eye area)
5. Cream (lid with moisturizer)

Retinol, in particular, is easily degraded by UV rays and should be used only at night. Niacinamide, on the other hand, can be used both morning and evening and protects the skin from UV damage during the day.

Continuous use is essential to realize the benefits of this quasi-drug. According to the guidelines of the Japanese Cosmetic Science Society, the evaluation of wrinkle-improving effects is based on the use of the product for at least eight weeks. The reason for the eight-week period has to do with the skin turnover cycle, which takes approximately 28 days for those in their 20s and 45 days for those in their 40s, and it takes at least two cycles for skin changes to become visible.

• 2 weeks: Skin begins to tone (feel the moisturizing effect)
• 4 weeks: Skin texture improves and makeup goes on better.
• 8 weeks: Beginning to see improvement in fine lines and wrinkles
• 12 weeks: Deep wrinkles begin to show changes.

However, this is only a guideline. It is important to understand that there are individual differences and to continue without haste. If you experience redness, itching, or any other unusual symptoms during use, discontinue use immediately and consult a physician.

 

Limitations of Moisturizing Care and the Cosmetic Medicine Option

It is a fact that some wrinkles do not show the desired improvement even after incorporating quasi-drug active ingredients and continuing for more than 8 weeks. Many of you may have experienced that kind of sigh every time you look in the mirror, even though you have carefully taken care of your wrinkles by moisturizing and trying products containing active ingredients. Many of you may have experienced this.

In fact, there are limits to self-care, and not all wrinkles can be improved with cosmetics or quasi-drugs. In particular, deep wrinkles that reach deep into the dermis, wrinkles accompanied by sagging, and wrinkles that have become fixed due to long-standing facial habits are difficult to fundamentally improve with external care alone.

However, this by no means means "giving up. Modern cosmetic medicine has evolved remarkably, and safe and effective treatment methods have been established for wrinkles that cannot be improved by self-care. Here, we will objectively explain the option of cosmetic medicine based on a proper understanding of the limitations of self-care.

Characteristics of wrinkles that do not improve with self-care

Are you continuing with ineffective care, thinking, "If I just try a little harder, maybe it will improve?" The truth is that some types of wrinkles will not improve even with the best moisturizing care and active ingredients. If you can identify this, you will be able to choose the appropriate treatment without wasting time and money.

The reality of deep wrinkles above grade 6

We introduced the grading system for wrinkles in Chapter 1, and deep wrinkles, Grade 6 and above, reach into the subcutaneous tissue and are at a depth that cannot be physically reached by surface care. These wrinkles are characterized by,

• Lines extend past the corners of the mouth to the chin.
• Vertical wrinkles between the eyebrows are always deeply etched.
• Wrinkles at the corners of the eyes extend to near the center of the cheeks.

These wrinkles are not only due to a significant decrease and degeneration of collagen and elastin in the dermis, but also to changes in the structure of the subcutaneous tissue itself. Unfortunately, it is impossible for topical agents to deliver active ingredients to the subcutaneous tissue, and improvement cannot be expected through self-care.

Complexity of wrinkles caused by sagging

Sagging, which appears with age, makes wrinkles more complex and difficult to correct.

• Golgoline: a diagonal line running from the inner corner of the eye to the cheek.
• Marionette lines: lines that hang down from the corners of the mouth to the chin
• Vertical neck wrinkles: longitudinal wrinkles caused by loosening of the vastus medialis muscle

These are not simple skin problems, but are caused by a combination of factors, including drooping of the facial fat layer, muscle wasting, and skeletal changes. Moisturizers and active ingredients cannot lift the tissues against gravity, so radical improvement cannot be expected.

Point of no return: fixation of expression wrinkles

Have you ever experienced wrinkles that used to appear only when you made facial expressions when you were younger, but before you know it, they have disappeared even when you were expressionless? This is "fixation of expression wrinkles.

• Initial: Wrinkles appear only when facial expressions are made (preventable with moisturizer)
• Medium-term: Wrinkles remain for a while even after returning the facial expression (can be improved with active ingredients)
• Late stage: wrinkles are always carved (difficult to improve with self-care)

In particular, vertical wrinkles between the eyebrows, horizontal wrinkles on the forehead, and crow's feet at the corners of the eyes tend to be deeply etched by repetitive movements of the facial muscles, and once fixed, they are difficult to improve without a muscular approach.

Types of Cosmetic Medicine and Expected Effects

After understanding the limitations of self-care, cosmetic medicine is the next step to consider. Some people may have the image that cosmetic medicine is scary or unnatural, but modern cosmetic medicine is highly safe and has established treatment methods that can achieve natural-looking results.

Let's take a closer look at the characteristics of each of the typical cosmetic treatments used to treat wrinkles.

treatment	mechanism of action	Adaptive wrinkles	Duration of effect	down time
Botox injection	Temporarily inhibits movement of facial muscles	Horizontal wrinkles on the forehead Vertical crease between the eyebrows Wrinkles at the corners of the eyes	4-6 months	almost never (Makeup can be done on the same day)
hyaluronic acid injection	Lift the crease groove from the inside.	Lines Marionette line Golgolines	6-18 months	Mild swelling (2-3 days)
HIFU	Ultrasound tightens fascia Promotes collagen production	Wrinkles due to sagging Collapse of the face line Neck wrinkles	6-12 months	Mild redness (Same day to next day)
thread lifting	Physical lifting with special threads	Deep lines Sagging wrinkles on the cheeks Lateral wrinkles on the neck	1-2 years	Swelling and internal bleeding (about 1 week)
laser therapy	Collagen regeneration by thermal stimulation Improvement of skin quality	Fine lines and wrinkles in general Lack of skin elasticity Pore opening	3-6 months	Redness/peeling (3-7 days)

Each treatment method has its own area of expertise, and the best method depends on the type, depth, and cause of the wrinkles.

• Botox for expression wrinkles: most effective for wrinkles caused by muscle movement
• Hyaluronic acid for volume loss: Fills in the gaps created by age-related fat loss
• HIFU or thread lift for sagging: radical approach to lift skin and fascia

In many cases, a combination of several treatments can produce more natural and effective results.

Cosmetic medicine is another option that goes beyond the limits of moisturizing care. By properly understanding your wrinkle condition and consulting with a specialist as needed, you can achieve confident skin, regardless of your age.

 

Smart wrinkle care strategies for people in their 40s

So far, we have looked in detail at the relationship between wrinkle types and moisturizing, moisturizing care for different areas, the use of quasi-drugs, and the option of cosmetic medicine. Some of you may be wondering, "After all, where do I start?" Some of you may be asking yourself, "How do I start?

The age of 40s is a major turning point for the skin. It is also a time when various factors, such as changes in hormonal balance, the accumulation of UV damage over the years, and fixed facial expression habits, combine to cause wrinkle problems to become more serious all at once. This is why a strategic approach, rather than ad hoc care, is necessary.

The most important thing is to have a "step-by-step approach" and a "long-term perspective. First, we must do the basics of moisturizing well, and then move on to the next step as needed. At the same time, we must not neglect preventive care to prevent further deepening of wrinkles. Only with these two wheels in place can we maintain skin that will give us confidence five to ten years from now. Here, we will provide specific information on smart wrinkle care strategies for people in their 40s and beyond.

Importance of a phased approach

Are you trying "this and that" and ending up halfway through all of them? The most important thing to avoid in wrinkle care is to change methods one after another before you feel the effects. Skin varies from person to person, and the time it takes for the same care to show results varies from person to person.

That is why a step-by-step, steady, step-by-step approach is so important. Let's start with three months of thorough moisturizing care.

1st month: Building the foundation of the skin

• Make it a habit to moisturize morning and evening
• Finding the right moisturizer for your skin
• Thorough layering of lotion and covering with cream
• Introduce special care (packs, etc.) once or twice a week

Second month: Improve the quality of moisturizing

• Consider care for each part of the body (eyes, mouth, neck, etc.)
• Focus on moisturizing ingredients (ceramide, hyaluronic acid, etc.)
• Moisturizing during the day (mist, moisturizing primer, etc.)
• Begin to record skin changes.

Third month: Determination of effectiveness

• Check for changes in fine lines and wrinkles
• Check the degree of improvement in skin elasticity and firmness
• Observe changes in makeup application
• Determine need for next steps

In these three months, grade 1-2 shallow wrinkles should visibly improve. The skin's moisture content will increase, the texture will improve, and the overall impression will be more youthful. If the results are satisfactory at this stage, you can maintain the good condition by continuing the moisturizing care.

If there is no improvement after 3-6 months of self-care or other use, or in the following situations, it may be time to consider cosmetic medicine. However, even when considering cosmetic medicine, a step-by-step approach is important. First, have a consultation and have your wrinkles examined by a specialist. Then, it is recommended to start with the least burdensome treatment.

Long-term preventive care plans

Wrinkle care is not only about "improvement," but "prevention" is equally important. Even if you improve existing wrinkles, it is meaningless if new wrinkles continue to appear.

The greatest external cause of wrinkles is undoubtedly ultraviolet radiation. Photoaging caused by UV rays ages the skin many times faster than natural aging due to aging. You may be thinking, "It's too late for that," but it is never too late to start in your 40s.

• Sunscreen habit for 365 days: essential even on cloudy days and indoors.
• Select SPF 30 or higher and PA+++ or higher: sufficient protection for daily use.
• Reapplication every 2 to 3 hours: Use spray type that can be used over makeup.
• Physical protection is also combined: hats, parasols, and sunglasses for complete protection.

Particularly often overlooked is UV protection for the neck, décolleté, and the backs of the hands. Because these areas tend to age easily and are difficult to improve later, it is important to take care of them at the same level as the face.

In addition, an unavoidable factor for women in their 40s is the change in hormonal balance. A decrease in estrogen leads to changes directly related to wrinkles, such as decreased collagen production, skin dryness, and loss of elasticity.

Wrinkle care in one's 40s requires a strategy that focuses on both "now" and "in the future. A step-by-step approach is taken to steadily improve the skin while at the same time protecting future skin with preventive care. With moisturizing as the foundation, quasi-drugs and cosmetic medicine are incorporated as needed, and lifestyle improvements provide support from the inside out. This comprehensive approach is the secret to maintaining beautiful skin even as we age.

 

summary

The most important thing in wrinkle care is to properly understand the significance and limitations of moisturizing. Moisturizing is indeed effective for dry fine wrinkles on the epidermis, but the reality is that it is difficult to improve deep wrinkles and expression lines that reach the dermis by moisturizing alone. However, this does not mean "giving up. Rather, an accurate understanding of one's wrinkle condition can pave the way to more effective care.

First, continue proper moisturizing care for three months. If there is still no improvement, then incorporate quasi-drug wrinkle-improving active ingredients, and if necessary, consider the option of cosmetic treatment. This step-by-step approach is a wise wrinkle care strategy for people in their 40s.

The key is to be flexible and not stick to one method. Moisturizers, active ingredients, and cosmetic treatments. By skillfully combining these three, you can have skin that gives you confidence even as you age. Why not start today with the best wrinkle care for you?
