Preventing Facial Lines and Wrinkles for Radiant
Skin

• Youre meticulous about your skin care
  routineyou cleanse, moisturize, apply sunblock,
  and slather on antioxidant creams and serums with
  impressive discipline during your waking hours.
• But could you be causing damage to your skin
  unknowingly during your nightly slumber?
• Two words sleep wrinkles.
• The repeated compression of your face against
  your pillow night after night can create fine
  lines and wrinkles that deepen over time.

3

• In short anyone can develop sleep wrinkles.
• Side sleepers and stomach sleepers are especially
  vulnerable to developing these lines and creases.
  
• In fact, dermatologists can often tell what
  position a person sleeps in based on the severity
  of lines and wrinkles on one side of the face
  versus the other.

4

• According to a recent study published in the
  Aesthetic Surgery Journal, the rate of wrinkle
  formation was highest in women who were in their
  40s and in early menopause compared to those who
  were in their teens or 60s.
• Menopausal state, dryness of the skin, and
  surface pH influence the rate of wrinkling.

5

• Skin becomes less elastic over time, and the
  facial fat that keeps us looking youthful and
  taut diminishes.
• Wrinkles have many causessome within our
  control, some not.
• In the same study in the Aesthetic Surgery
  Journal, plastic surgeons advise patients to use
  sunscreen to minimize photoaging, quit smoking,
  optimize nutrition, maximize topical skin care,
  and avoid facial compression during sleep.
• Lets look at how we can protect delicate facial
  skin at night.

6

• Sleeping on your side or stomach can compress and
  pull at delicate facial skin, leading to wrinkles
  over time.
• The best sleeping position is flat on your back,
  yet many people have difficulty falling (and
  staying) asleep this way.
• Using pillows on either side of your body as
  bolsters can help prevent turning and flipping,
  but many of us will inevitably end up back in our
  natural sleeping position before long.

7

• Using satin pillowcases may reduce skin tugging
  somewhat. However, pillowcase fabric cannot
  alleviate compressionthe main source of sleep
  wrinkles.
• For side- and stomach-sleepers, the only way to
  prevent sleep wrinkles is to reduce facial
  contact with the pillow surface.

8

• If youre like most women today (and,
  increasingly, men) you have a veritable sea of
  wrinkle creams, gels, and serums on your bathroom
  countertop.
• These products can smooth skin temporarily, but
  the lines, creases, and wrinkles will likely come
  back or develop in adjacent areas unless the
  facial compression component is addressed.

9

• Fillers like JUVÉDERM and Restylane can help
  fill in lines and wrinkles, but they are a
  temporary and incomplete solution. Fillers, while
  costly, can make a difference in the appearance
  of wrinkles.
• Surgery is the most dramatic option for wrinkle
  correction but can be expensive and have a
  significant recovery time.
• To preserve the effects of facial treatments and
  prevent further damage, its important to ensure
  youre sleeping in the optimal position that
  minimizes facial compression.

10

• Youve probably picked up on a common theme by
  now skin aging caused by nighttime facial
  compression.
• If sleep position isnt addressed, other facial
  wrinkle fixes can only do so much.
• Unless youre one of the few who can stay on your
  back during sleep without help, an anti-wrinkle
  pillow that provides support like JuveRest is
  the best solution to prevent sleep-related
  wrinkles.
• A well-designed pillow like JuveRest cradles your
  head and neck, minimizing contact between your
  face and the pillow all night long. The result
  fewer wrinkles over time.
