Preventing and Treating Cleavage Wrinkles
Yes, you can and may have wrinkles forming on many parts of your body. No, you don't want wrinkles anywhere. Yet, you definitely don't want to see them in special places such as your cleavage area.
Why do wrinkles form in the cleavage area? Yes, the sun and the UV rays is the number one reason for these wrinkles. Think about it. We forget to apply sunscreen or we don't apply the right amounts of it everywhere on our body. Then the sun beats down on us. Many times we wear pretty low cut blouses, tops, and tank tops. Our cleavage area is exposed. The sun's rays hit this area. Over time these UV rays damage the skin just as it can any area of our body and wrinkles begin to form.
Yet, this is only one reason wrinkles form. Another main reason for cleavage wrinkles is the fact that many women enjoy sleeping on their sides. When they do this their breasts begin to rub together as they sleep. This friction can cause damage to the delicate skin area and over time wrinkles can form.
Of course, age is another factor in cleavage wrinkles. Age causes wrinkles to form on the skin of our body and on many areas of our body.
These cleavage wrinkles will usually begin to start forming around the age of 40. Yet, there are ways to stop and slow down their progression.
- Wear sunscreen when you go outside. Make sure it is a sunscreen of at least 30 SPF and make sure you apply it to your cleavage area. On really sunny days, you can also try to cover up your cleavage area, too.
- Sleep on your back. This is the easiest way to keep those cleavage wrinkles from forming because of your sleeping habits.
- If you hate sleeping on your back, consider purchasing a cleavage pillow. Yes, this funny looking pillow can help. It fits between your breasts and keeps them from rubbing together. They can be purchased online at such sites as: chestsavers.com
- .To fight the aging process and to help combat the effects of past UV rays, you can also apply retinol creams to the cleavage area to help combat the wrinkles. It is advisable to do this at night since the actual UV rays can cause a sensitivity issue when used in the daytime.
No, we don't have to put up with cleavage wrinkles. We can learn the tricks and tips on preventing and treating them while they are in their early stages. Then our entire body can look younger, longer.
