Tranverse frontal lines

 

Superior orbital groove

 

Here is a guideline: Wrinkles appear perpendicular to the stretch of the underly­ing muscles. For example, the horizontal (transverse) lines across a forehead are perpendicular to the vertical pull of the frontalis muscle of the face. If you under­stand the facial muscles, it will be easier to determine where to place age lines and wrinkles that look natural.

THE20S

■ Fine transverse frontal lines may appear across the forehead.

■ Fine vertical glabellar lines may appear in people who frown frequently.

■ Fine lateral orbital lines, or "crow’s feet," may appear in people who smile often or spend a lot of time in the sun.

THE30S

■ Transverse frontal lines deepen.

■ Vertical glabellar lines deepen.

■ Lateral orbital lines increase in number and deepen.

■ Transverse nasal lines may form across the top of the nose.

■ Nasolabial lines or furrows become noticeable.

The inferior orbital groove may become apparent.

The eyebrows may descend slightly.

An excess of upper eyelid may develop and a portion of the superior orbital groove may be obscured at the lateral side.

The jawline becomes less firm.

Circumoral striae become noticeable, especially in smokers.

The lips may begin to thin.

The oromental groove may begin, depending on facial structure.

The mentolabial groove becomes more apparent, depending on facial structure.

Fine lines in the neck become noticeable.

THE50S

■ The inferior orbital groove may define a developing pouch under the eyes.

■ Excess upper eyelid tissue may worsen, obscuring more of the superior orbital groove at the lateral side and creating more lateral orbital lines.

■ The nasolabial furrow is more noticeable.

■ The oromental groove deepens.

■ The lips continue to thin, especially in people who had thin lips in youth.
