眉間のシワ

Wrinkles between the eyebrows

冬は乾燥の季節。眉間のシワが気になる人増えますね。眉間のシワは実年齢よりも老けて見られたり、疲れているように見られたり、不機嫌に見られたりと、他人に良い印象を与えません。眉間は、他の皮膚の部分に比べてとても薄いため、眉間にシワを寄せるなどの癖があると跡がつきやすく、習慣で、眉間にシワを寄せる行為が繰り返されることで、シワができてしまうのです。眉間はスキンケアの中でも、気が付かない部分なので、しっかりと保湿されないと、肌の水分が失われ角質層が固くなりシワができてしまうこともあります。また、年齢とともに、肌のコラーゲンが減っていくと、肌の弾力をキープするために欠かせないコラーゲンが不足し、肌のハリが失われ、シワになりやすい状態になってしまいます。1度シワができてしまうと、完全には元の状態には戻りにくくなります。肌の水分不足以外にも、パソコンやスマートフォンなどを長時間使用していると目が疲れ、無意識に目を細めたり、眉間にシワを寄せてしまうことも原因になります。遠くのものを見たり、小さな文字を見るときなども、つい、眉間にシワを寄せてしまったり。眉間の筋肉は、皺眉筋と鼻根筋があります。眉間の縦ジワに影響するのが皺眉筋という筋肉です。これは、眉をひそめて、しかめっ面をするときに使われる筋肉で、眉頭周辺の皮膚を中央へ寄せて眉間にシワを作ります。また、鼻の付け根あたりに横ジワを作るのが、鼻の根元にある鼻根筋です。これらの筋は、表情筋と呼ばれます。眉間のしわを改善するために、美容鍼を用いて、肌の真皮層にまで微細な傷をつけます。真皮細胞が傷の修復をしようとコラーゲンの分泌を促し、これにより肌にハリと潤いを取り戻すことができます。

Winter is the season of dryness. More and more people are concerned about the wrinkles between their eyebrows. Wrinkles between the eyebrows can make you look older than your actual age, tired, or grumpy, which does not give others a good impression of you. Since the area between the eyebrows is very thin compared to the rest of the skin, wrinkles between the eyebrows can easily leave marks if you have a habit of wrinkling your brows, and if you repeat the act of wrinkling between the brows out of habit, wrinkles will form. Since the area between the eyebrows is an area of the skin that goes unnoticed in skin care, if the area is not well moisturized, the skin loses moisture and the horny layer hardens, causing wrinkles to form. In addition, as the skin ages, collagen, which is essential for maintaining skin elasticity, is depleted, causing the skin to lose its firmness and become more prone to wrinkling. once wrinkles form, it is difficult to completely restore the skin to its original state. In addition to lack of moisture in the skin, prolonged use of computers and smartphones can also cause eye fatigue, leading to unconscious squinting and wrinkling between the eyes. When looking at distant objects or small letters, we also tend to wrinkle between the eyebrows. The muscles between the eyebrows include the crease brow muscle and the nasal root muscle. The wrinkled brow muscle is the muscle that affects the vertical wrinkles between the eyebrows. This muscle is used when the eyebrows are furrowed and frown, and it draws the skin around the browhead to the center, creating a wrinkle between the eyebrows. Also, the nasal root muscle, located at the base of the nose, creates horizontal wrinkles around the base of the nose. These muscles are called expression muscles. To improve the wrinkles between the eyebrows, cosmetic acupuncture needles are used to cause microscopic wounds down to the dermal layer of the skin. The dermal cells stimulate the secretion of collagen in an attempt to repair the wounds, and this restores firmness and moisture to the skin.
