Question: What do I do for the wrinkles that I already have?

"The answer to this depends on what kind of wrinkles the patient has and where they are on the face," board-certified dermatologist Papri Sarkar said.

"If they have mostly fine lines or wrinkles or not much in the way of wrinkles at all, I recommend a retinoid. In general, they need to use it about three times per week at night and slather themselves with moisturiser afterwards so they don't get too dry or irritated. Retinoids do a great job of preventing and treating fine lines and wrinkles and also help to even out skin tone over months."

"If they have deeper wrinkles, they are probably good candidates for botox, fillers, or lasers depending on where those wrinkles are."
