Madonna, Wrinkles and HD TV: Curing wrinkles

Celebrities are now living in fear. As the sales of HD televisions go up, we find that the youthful and iconic images of stars like Madonna, and Demi Moore, who both remain sex symbols in their fifies, are not what we think them to be. Indeed, we will find that more and more celebrities, will want to have either cosmetic surgery, or use more powerful anti-ageing creams, to ensure that they are able, to remain relevant in the public eye, and in the lofty world of Hollywood, where signs of age, mean the end of a career. People all over the world have all heard the sayings: Wrinkles are a representation of a person's life, and show the stories that a person's life has. Laugh lines, show a life of joy, and a furrowed forehead, shows stress. But in Hollywood, they would rather not be reminded of the stories, when it makes them look old. The best thing, is to understand what causes wrinkles. Reducing wrinkles, is the main mission in the world of Hollywood and from this fans who are interested in skincare can start to explore their own treatment options.
Wrinkles are the clearest indication of the aging process. As we age, skin cells divide more slowly, and the dermis, which is the core layer of the skin, begins to thin out and lose its structural integrity. Elastin (the protein which allows skin to stretch) and collagen fibres (the structural proteins in the skin), which support the outer layer, weaken, causing deep impression's on the skins surface, which we call wrinkles . With aging, skin loses its elasticity, and levels of hydration deplete. It is less able to retain moisture, and oil-secreting glands are less efficient and the skin takes extended periods to heal. All of these factors contribute to the development of wrinkles.
Frown lines and crows feet are believed to develop because of small muscle contractions. Smiling, frowning, squinting and other regular facial expressions, cause these wrinkles to become more prominent and over and extended period of time, the expressions added with gravity contribute the inevitable formation of jowls, and drooping, sleepy eyelids.
Overexposure to ultraviolet radiation from the sun, can result in the premature aging of the skin. The ultraviolet sunrays that cause photoaging, damage collagen fibres, and when ultraviolet light damages skin tissue, an enzyme called metalloproteinase is produced. This enzyme creates and reforms collagen. During the process, however, some healthy collagen fibres are damaged, resulting in a disorganized formation of fibres called solar scars. Wrinkles develop when the healing process occurs repeatedly.
Skin perpetually regenerates. While old collagen is broken down and removed new collagen is produced. Dermatologists have found that smoke causes a marked reduction in the production of new collagen and lack of new collagen results in the development of wrinkles. In light of all these environmental factors, that result in wrinkles, the fact that Hollywood, icons like Demi Moore and Madonna, are able to look more youthful, means that the systems that they use, to combat wrinkles, is very effective.
There are a myriad of treatment options for wrinkles, including various creams and lotions, such as those offered by specialist anti-ageing company, Angel and Weightman, which use a combination of plant extracts, enzymes, concentrated vitamins, stem cells and collagen, to clear the skin and smooth wrinkles . Prescription treatments, including powerful retinoid creams Retin-A, are also an option.
Removing skin layers to reduce wrinkles or irregular depressions is an effective way to regain smoother, more youthful looking skin. Dermabrasion and the more intensive, (and painful) chemical peels are two of the more widely used methods used in skin resurfacing. Laser skin resurfacing with an ablative laser (such as an erbium or carbon dioxide laser) is another technique that, like dermabrasion and deeper chemical peels, will need an extensive period of time for the skin to recover.

Dermatologists who work with celebrities, aside from using specialist anti-ageing creams, also use other methods, including lasers, designated as non-ablative lasers, which are beneficial in treating and reducing wrinkles. These lasers work by heating the dermal layers, and in turn stimulating collagen production. This process, which leaves the outer layers of skin intact, has the benefit of not having a long healing process, which allows for busy actors and the like to return to work or business, looking their very best. However, it has been reported that the results are not as noticeable as the previously mentioned ablative lasers which actually remove the surface layers of skin.

The Hollywood staple of Botox, collagen and other injections are the additional techniques available to help minimize the dreaded appearance of wrinkles, which is so much worse looking HD television. Wrinkles, are a bane on the life of a person that take pride in the way they look, and of course each person has his or her own individual needs that need to be fulfilled. Specialist skincare treatments, like the ones made by Angel and Weightman, help people to reduce wrinkles, and achieve the look of youthful perfection that they strive for.
