Overview
Wrinkles are lines that form on your skin. They’re a natural part of your body’s aging process. Wrinkles on your skin look similar to the wrinkles you get on a shirt that needs ironed. They appear as folds, creases or ridges. They’re most often found on your face, neck and arms, but wrinkles can appear anywhere on your body.
Who do wrinkles affect?
Everyone who ages experiences wrinkles. You may be more at risk of getting wrinkles early in life if:
- You have sun-damaged skin or your skin is frequently exposed to the sun.
- You smoke tobacco products.
- Your body loses collagen, which gives your skin elasticity and support.
What age do I start getting wrinkles on my body?
As your body ages, you’ll notice fine lines start to appear on your body. This can start after age 25. The most common age group for people who look for wrinkle treatment is between ages 40 to 55. Wrinkles become more prominent after age 65.
