However, wrinkles are not all the same; different kinds are available based on various factors.
Expression wrinkles

Compression wrinkles

To prevent such wrinkles from according, you need to change your sleeping position to your back and stop compressing your face.
Gravitational wrinkles or folds
These types of wrinkles appear as a result of the loss of elasticity and collagen due to the natural aging process and sun damage. Deepening Nasolabial folds or smile lines are some of the examples but it could be corrected by using available fillers to re-inflate the particular area.
You can also use peptide-rich products that will nourish collagen to treat the gravitational types of wrinkles.
Atrophic wrinkles
They are known as those deep furrowed wrinkles that parallel between the lines. They appear on your forehead when the eyebrows are furrowed.
