As the name suggests, dynamic expression lines are caused by repeated facial expressions and the loss of collagen and elastin over time. Facial muscles are different from other muscles within the body because they’re directly attached to the skin, allowing us to make expressions, whether that’s frowning, smiling, or laughing.

Deep lines in the skin define elastotic creases. This particular type of wrinkle tends to show up where the skin creases naturally, such as the cheeks, lips, base of the neck, and the lips. Unlike crinkle lines, these are deep wrinkles

The belief that dry skin causes wrinkles is nothing more than a myth. What’s true is that dry skin appears to be more wrinkled because it’s producing less oil than other skin types, so lines are more prominent.
