Ageing is unstoppable, resulting in changes in all structures and the skin is no exception. Multiple environmental factors can also affect skin quality.  Fine lines and wrinkles develop, the natural volume is depleted, glandular activity is reduced, and the skin becomes drier.

A well-defined chin is the cornerstore for an attractive face. A small or retruded chin can cause your forehead to appear too prominent, your nose too big, and reduce the definition in your cheeks and neck.

The size and shape of your chin contributes not only to facial attractiveness but also to gender-typical characteristics of a face. Men typically have a wider chin with a flatter base, giving them a “square” look, whereas women’s faces ar...

The first facial feature we notice about another person is their eyes.  Our eyes are powerful communicators of emotions and thoughts every single day. They speak volumes – both intentionally and unintentionally – about who we are and what we feel. Being a centre of attention, we are able to notice the slightest changes in their appearance. As we age, signs of ageing begin to appear around our eyes first. This is due to the skin around our eyes being the most delicate on our body. The skin that forms your eyelids stretches, muscles underneath weaken, and fat surrounding the eye begins ...

The shape of our nose can change with increasing age. The reason for this lies in two different, age-related mechanisms: 1) As we age, the structural stability within our nose can decrease. The loss of support leads to a long, and thin nose with a droopy nasal tip, where the tip of the nose is pointing downwards. Frequently patients complain about an increasingly longer nose. A droopy tip and an elongated nose can be accompanied with an impairment of nasal breathing. Quite often, patients describe an improvement in airway passage, when they lift up the tip of their nose. 2) A typical si...

Our eyes and forehead play a prominent role in communicating our emotions. A sagging, heavy eyebrow with deep horizontal lines across our forehead can cause us to look constantly tired, worried or sometimes even angry. Sadly, some of us are genetically inclined to heavier eyebrows with a short distance between the eyebrows and eyelashes. In most cases sagging brows are a consequence of ageing. The skin around our eyes, forehead and temples begin to loose elasticity in our late thirties. The constant effect of gravity results in drooping of the eyebrows. Also known as forehead rejuvenation,...

Crow’s feet are laughter lines around the eyes. Above and beyond seeing the world around us, we use our eyes so much in order to form all kinds of expressions. Over time, movements such as squinting, laughing, and smiling causes lines and creases to form at the corners of the eyes. Because of the shape of these wrinkles we commonly refer to them as ‘crow’s-feet’. In our younger days the wrinkles that form at the sides of the eyes disappear when we relax our eyes and face but as we get older these lines start to appear even when our face is relaxed and rested. This is when we start to ...

There comes a time when the signs of ageing become very apparent. Skin begins looking deflated, droopy and wrinkled, swamping what were once beautifully sharp cheekbones and chiselled jawlines. Features that are, in fact, still very much intact - just hidden by the unpleasant effects of gravity. It’s no wonder that so many of us find it hard to connect with the ageing face we see in the mirror. Inside we’re eternally 25. As part of the aging process which happens to all of us sooner or later, our skin progressively loses its elasticity and our muscles tend to slacken. The stresses of d...

It’s no secret that our eyes are one of the first areas to show the signs of ageing. The skin here is 40 per cent thinner than the rest of our face, making it more delicate. While so-coined ‘crow’s feet’ - the fine lines and wrinkles around the eye area - are totally normal, they’re also one of the most common ageing concerns.  What causes lines around the eyes? A combination of loss of skin elasticity and collagen, and skin movement are the main causes of crow’s feet.
