Say No To Fine Lines : These Are The Best Wrinkle Fillers That Will Keep Your Skin Forever Young!

Nidhi Kavle | Apr 18, 2019

Wrinkles and fine lines are something that every single one of us is prone to. It’s an eventuality that we can’t really escape, only delay. There’s nothing you can do to avoid them so learning to age gracefully is the best thing you can do. Like all other things that change with age, your skin too changes. Over time, your skin loses its elasticity and starts to sag. The best you can do is delay the formation of lines and wrinkles by maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Eat your vegetables, work out daily and be kind to your skin, it’s the only way it will be kind to you. And having fine lines and wrinkles is absolutely okay, so please don’t let anybody tell you otherwise.

There are a number of ways to deal with fine lines and wrinkles that DO NOT involve going under the knife! You can start early by using the right ingredients in your skincare regime that act as natural wrinkle fillers. These ingredients are known to smooth over and ease the appearance of wrinkles and increase the elasticity of your skin. Try to actively look for skincare products that have one or a combination of these ingredients.

Ingredients To Look Out For While Buying Skincare

There are some ingredients that are designed to work on your skin’s texture and some that are designed to work on improving your skin’s elasticity. If you’re looking to begin your journey with anti-aging, you might want to first understand what each ingredient does before investing the big bucks. Broadly, there are a few key ingredients that wrinkle-reducing and anti-aging creams contain. These ingredients do everything from brighten, correct, smoothen and tighten your skin.

Retinol
Vitamin C
Vitamin E
Hyaluronic Acid
Collagen

Retinol

The mother of anti-aging ingredients, Retinol or better known as Vitamin A is a key ingredient in some of the best anti-aging moisturizers. Retinol encourages your skin to produce more collagen, reduce and prevent the appearance of wrinkles, unclog your pores and brighten your skin. Retinol, however, does not suit all skin types. Tolerance to this ingredient needs to be built slowly. It also increases your skin’s sensitivity to the sun, so wearing sunscreen if you use retinol daily is non-negotiable.

Vitamin C

The benefits of Vitamin C are best explained in a few words. If your skin lacks luster, glow and you suffer from dark spots and pigmentation, befriend Vitamin C in your daily regime. Here are some products that you should definitely invest in vitamin c.

Vitamin E

Contrary to what one would believe, Vitamin E does much more than just hydrate your skin. At times, your skin can appear dull, sallow and look much older than your actual age and this can be a result of dry, dehydrated skin. Vitamin E makes any skincare product work better. It soothes, moisturizes and softens your skin while improving the appearance of scars and blemishes. Mixed with Retinol or Vitamin C, it even has the capacity to boost the effectiveness of other ingredients. This can primarily be attributed to the soothing and moisturizing properties it has.

Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic Acid has become the buzzword in skincare lately and its primary function is to ease irritation and moisturize dry skin. HA is naturally found in our bodies and with age and lifestyle, a reduction in this can cause dry and dull skin. Adding hyaluronic acid to your skincare regime is a great way to moisturize dry skin. Because of its consistency and its ability to penetrate through your skin and reach the deeper layers, it fills in wrinkles and makes your skin look plump and healthy.

Collagen

Collagen is one of the key ingredients responsible for your skin looking youthful, bouncy and glowy. It promotes elasticity while keeping your skin tight and firm. As we age, we lose the natural collagen in our bodies and this is what actually causes aging. Unlike other ingredients that can be topically applied, collagen benefits your body better when consumed. Speak to your dermatologist or general physician and check if it is safe for you to consume collagen supplements. These will improve the elasticity of your skin, help build muscle and burn fat, reduce the appearance of unwarranted cellulite, ease your joint mobility and improve gut health. If you don’t want to consume supplements, try and look for natural sources of collagen.

Now that you’ve understood what each ingredient does for your skin, let’s find out which are the best wrinkle fillers or should we say, the best anti-aging products you can invest your money in. Wrinkles typically form on 3 major areas – forehead, under eyes and around your mouth. While your under eye area needs a separate cream – here’s why, the rest of your face can benefit from using one product.

10 Best Wrinkle Fillers

Let’s start with wrinkle reducing formulas for the under eye area. Wrinkles under the eyes are commonly referred to as crows feet. What makes this area more susceptible to aging is that the skin under your eyes is thinner than any other skin that’s found on your body. This means that it’s also more sensitive and requires different treatment than the rest of your face. That’s why you need a separate eye cream. Here are some of the best wrinkle fillers for face.

RoC Pro-Correct Anti-Wrinkle
RoC Pro-Correct Anti-Wrinkle
RoC Pro-Sublime Anti-Wrinkle Eye Reviving Cream
Yves Rocher Serum Vegetal Wrinkles

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best wrinkle filler?

The best wrinkle filler entirely depends on your skin and the kind of wrinkles you have. If your wrinkles are deep-set, you might need professional injectable fillers from a dermatologist. If you have mild, shallow wrinkles a wrinkle filler cream or serum will help iron out and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.

What causes wrinkles?

Like aging, wrinkles are a part and parcel of life and it’s absolutely OKAY to have them. They’re not something you should be ashamed of. As we age, our skin tends to lose its elasticity and as a result, fine lines and wrinkles set in. There are no avoiding wrinkles but you can make brief lifestyle changes and take better care of your skin to prolong their appearance. Sometimes fine lines and wrinkles appear as a result of dry and dehydrated skin. On occasions like these, the best wrinkle fillers are those that focus on putting moisture back into your skin. This often is enough to bring your skin back to looking plump and healthy. It might take you a little bit of trial and error to understand what works for your skin. If you have oily skin, a wrinkle filler with Retinol and Hyaluronic Acid should do the trick. But if you have dry, dehydrated skin looks for an over the counter wrinkle filler that has hydrating ingredients like Vitamin E, Collagen, etc.

What is the difference between Botox and wrinkle fillers?

The basic difference is that these products are creams, lotions and serums. These are over the counter treatments that you can buy online or in-stores. Whereas Botox and other (injectable) wrinkle fillers are cosmetic treatments that need to be performed by a dermatologist. They are non-invasive, non-surgical procedures with minimal downtime. Both Botox and fillers are injected into your skin. The results of Botox and wrinkle filler treatments are instant and last for 6-12 months depending on the area and treatment used.

If you’re looking for Botox for your forehead and eye area, prices can range from INR 15,000 to 25,000 depending on the area being treated, the units used and the clinic. Fillers are priced per syringe that typically has 1ml of substance. Again, depending on the amount of filler used, the area being treated and the clinic, fillers can cost upwards of INR 20,000 to 35,000.

Are they safe to use, are there any side effects?

Yes, all of the products mentioned are safe to use but you cannot skip using sunscreen on a daily basis. If you have very sensitive skin, Retinol or Vitamin A is known to cause some mild irritation and dryness of the skin. They might even cause some redness. As is the case with any treatment products, it is recommended that you use sunscreen to protect your skin from sun damage and hypersensitivity.
