Wear sunscreen and keeping your skin moisturized 24/7 is the best we can do for now, other than sleep, not smiling or frowning too much, and a good diet and less stress (where we can control it).
My mother has been going on about the adverse effects of UV (sunlight, tanning lamps) for years. Nice to have confirmation that she was right about this all this time.
How about a review on facial skin sagging vs wrinkles? I used to sleep on the left side of my face. It would be buffy/swelled when I woke up (especially after using tretinoin). That side sags more. I'm 60 and if my left side looked like my right side, I would look in my 40s. I have no wrinkles and people even notice and comment that I have no wrinkles. Now I use a special pillow and my face no longer swells up.
Im no doctor but just by what you said and without thinking too hard, it sounds like a minor allergic reaction to the fabric of the pillow or some chemical in the tretinoin, or some other chemical/product that you apply that gets smushed in when you sleep on that side?
@@zoombinifleen9362 Could be, but what's done is done. I've solved the problem two years ago, but my left side still sags. Returning to the gym after covid shut-downs did seem to thicken my skin some. I also got skinny during that time and likely lost fat and collagen content from the skin (I've never been overweight). It's likely a combination of everything. My pillow cases or detergent did not change, but I did begin using a harder pillow before this happened. My new pillow does not put that much pressure on my face. Fortunately, it's not that noticable. It's not as if I look like a stroke victim. I'm just providing an observation I made about sagging skin as we age. It could be a case study. This is analogous to studies on weight training where a different protocol is used for each leg to observe differences in strength or mass gain of each leg.
@@zoombinifleen9362 hi. What she is seeing in her face is the effect of gravity. Body fluids pooling at the lowest point of her face, combined with compression from the weight of her head, causes fluid to be trapped there and swelling to occur.
There is also the consideration that everyone is slightly lopsided - one side of the face being longer/larger than the other. So the shorter side (maybe it's always the left side? It is on me.) will have more sagging.
Question: Are wrinkles caused by the skin between the wrinkles not being flexible enough, or the skin in the wrinkles being too flexible, or because there is too much skin caused by not enough cells dying? I have used a night cream with vitamin A on the right half of my face, and nothing on the other half, for half a year now. I have a bit less wrinkles on the right side of my forehead. Most notable is that the "bag" under the left eye is bigger. The flap over the right side of my right eye is a bit smaller. Maybe most creams would have had the same effect. The idea was that the vitamin A would bring more oxygen in the skin and make the skin grow faster and thicker. Now it looks like there is to much skin on the treated side.
That attitude would've been extremely helpful to let go off the debilitating societal pressure to maintain a youthful appearance throughout the course of human existence. While we delve into the physical parameters, you have unequivocally emphasized upon the psychological evolution. It would be great to have that balance.
Anecdotal, but still - I used to sleep on my left side and did develop a long wringkle down my left side which was very pronounced in the morning. Switching few years back to the right side (for all the digestive reasons :-)) I started to develop one on the right too.
Perform “facial yoga” every day. This stretches and tones the skin in every direction, and so discourages the skin from forming grooves that are caused by stretching in the same direction repeatedly.
People need to understand that if you don’t exercise, drink enough water, eat a good diet, get enough sleep, manage your stress, and if drink too much alcohol. Then it literally doesn’t matter what you do to your skin it will never look good.
Facial patches actually do work, speaking from 4 years of experience I now have less wrinkles between the brows than when I started them. The results are long term, and you have to be consistent with them. Its the equivalent of frowning less, basically and training your face to relax. However, agree here that tackling the structural underlying damage is rather more important.
Sleep position isn't a major contributor to wrinkle formation, that award goes to Sun exposure, smoking, alcohol use, and poor diet. But it is a minor player. Wrinkles from sleep position form over decades, on the same principle that expression wrinkles do ... repeated folding of skin. In addition to the face, they also can form on the cleavage of side sleepers with ample breast tissue. Just sleep on your back, no $200 pillow necessary. 😊
Yeah, I was surprised that he mentioned that sleep position doesn’t matter, since it’s easy to see in people that don’t sleep on their back. Sleeping on one’s back could be an easy fix, but it can be very uncomfortable for many people.
I use the Sutera pillow which really cradles my head and keeps me from going on my side as much. But I also use satin pillowcases with slippage. It doesn't pull moisture as much as cotton may from the hair and face, and my hair looks better in the morning.
I use Dr Greger's suggestions and also use Frownies paper face adhesives as well. Re the time period for the study, daily use 30 days is what you start with and then every other day use. Using them the right way and consistently produces results. How deep the wrinkles are to begin with also makes a difference. Frownies help me reduce forehead furrowing and help me be more aware in general of my facial expressions. You notice the softening of the wrinkles immediately after you take them off, and as you make more facial movements during the day, you can get some wrinkling again. I find it is most effective on forehead lines and 11 lines between the eyebrows, and you can use it around the mouth if you use the right configuration. I also use an LED/RFD face wand, LED mask, Retin A, and castor oil. Castor oil has been touted as nature's botox and I have seen a real difference in the softening of my laugh lines with its use. Added to helichrysum oil, in two weeks I saw angry red spider veins in my legs fade to pink, although I haven't seen a big reduction in the bluer/purplish varicose veins. YMMV.
@@djayjp I already ordered the ones for the forehead based on the review in the original comment. I scrunch my eyebrows whenever I’m reading so if I can train myself to stop doing that it would be great. The other thing about studies is that it’s the average of all the participants so there might be a few people it worked amazingly well for but the stats say no effect. It might still work for you even though a study says it won’t. And, for $25 it’s worth a try.
@@djayjp I know that he cited a study that said no difference after 30 days. As I stated before, 30 days is where you start, with consecutive daily use, and then you can reduce to every other day or so if you wish. The idea is to retrain your muscles and to stop furrowing. Despite the conclusions of a 30-day-only study, I actually have been using the product for almost two years. You have to follow proper application procedure, pulling apart the wrinkles a bit, applying the patch, overlapping the patches, and allowing them to form a cast that you keep on for 3 hours or longer. I typically do overnight or at least 8 hours. I find it very relaxing and have softened my lines as well as I feel prevented more from forming. I also have become more aware of the facial movements I make as a result and try to furrow less even when not wearing Frownies. The way I look at it, it's non-invasive and the worst that happens is you don't like it, don't keep up with it, or feel you don't get results, at a relatively cheap investment.
Would be great if you could do a video on lectins. Guys like Dr Steven Gundry claim they are highly inflammatory, and highly destructive to gut linings. You recommend some high lectin foods in your content and books (like wheat germ for instance.) Is it potentially harmful? Does cooking it neutralize lectins but keep the spermidine in tact? What are your thoughts? Cheers.
Interesting to know, but why do we want to prevent wrinkles? Like would we care that as our dogs age, their muzzles get grey? I enjoy the science, but wonder at the underlying idea that wrinkles are somehow something to be avoided. Good luck with that.
I was having a cluster of dropped (and broken) dishware. I mentioned it to my brother who is a Dermatologist. He suggested that I stop using Botox. I did, and the cluster ended. Now, I'm going to try some safer alternatives to Botox: Angeline, Leuphasyl and GHK-Cu. I'd also like to try a high-quality castor oil.
You're gonna love the castor oil!!! Make sure it's organic and without hexane. Only recently discovered it and I'm blown away with the results...(check out some of the videos regarding the myriad ways to use it on youtube).
LOTS of fair skinned people have wrinkles on their arms. UV induced skin damage is by far the most important prerequisite for skin wrinkling. All other factors are just marginal.
I would guess the wrinkling type differences among Asian nationalities has to do with language and which facial muscles they use more or less during a lifetime.
your skin has a program to contract when periodically stretched, but it grows when constantly pulled. So exercise helps if done correctly. As you might surmise, if you have fat under the skin this will result in a constant pull.
Eat more raw plant foods rich in vitamin C (to make more collagen) and water and drink more water to hydrate your body and your skin best from the inside.
I started getting vertical wrinkles on my forehead on only one side and didn’t know where they were coming from. I finally realized that I sleep on that side every night and the wrinkles match exactly the impression the pillow makes when it scrunches my face.
@@Joefest99 I have laid on all different ways on my face and still it’s not worse. I’m doubtful if that’s the major factor in skin wrinkles at this point. Maybe it could worsen it if the skin is already dry and not kept moisturized on top of too much sun exposure and daytime frowning and smiling.
With UV damage and collagen loss, which for most people just means older age, you'll get more sleep wrinkles. Children, whose faces are plump, moist and full of undamaged elastin and collagen will not. Worse they get is a puffy face, which vanishes within an hour of waking. Good point, too, about moisturizing dry skin. There are a variety of oils on the market, I like squalene and rose hip myself. Just make sure they are organic and hexane free.
i have deep lines above my right eyebrow but i cant actually raise that eyebrow on its own so i just figured it was either a lack of muscle and blood flow on that side, i do sleep mostly on that side, also the room light is on that side i wonder if thats caused it.. i also used to stand in the sun for hours trying to get tanned as possible every day and have smoked sinse i was 14 yet luckily everyone cant beleive my age presumably because ive been a strict vegan for 10 years, those lines do make that side of my face look alot older tho, my fully white friends who arent vegan and dont go in the sun much at all have those lines going across there whole forehead, im getting there but im about to buy some retinol and vitamin c creams to try stop it lol, my biggest worry at the moment is this alopecia in my beard tho, using topical steroids but the spot just seems to get bigger and bigger, pretty much ruining my life as its still obvious when clean shaved as i have thick dark beard hair, its possible stress has caused it but after some googling i fear i could have thyroid problems maybe from smoking, it came on right after i quit weed and still smoked tobacco, im slowly quitting tobacco now, also eating 2 sheets of nori a day but that hasnt seemed to help either, they say the people with the most blessings have the most curses and thats me right now
Probier doch mal Pflaster z.b. kinesiopflaster űber Nacht oder wenn du zu Hause bist. Wenn man sie nichts falsch klebt, kann passieren das du morgens mehr falten hast. Aber mir hilft das. Außerdem vermische ich immer gute Őle mit einer Creme, ich nehme nur natűrliche. Auch Gesichtsyoga/Gymnastic hilft.
Thank you so much. Like Dr. John McDougall, who is constantly educating women about the futility of modern healthcare, Dr. Greger is also educating women to make the right choices about everything. God bless!
can you please touch on alopecia in the beard, i wrote a list of what could be causing mine and i had moisuturizer (dht blockers), fragrances (edc disruptors), hay fever (alergies), lost a pet and quit weed (stress) smoking tobacco (since young, mixed with weed but now on its own till i quit that 2) daily workouts (physical stress) caffeine, kale, soy protein isolate, sunscreen, and maybe a lack of zinc and iodine (now eating 2 sheets of nori most days and have started eating walnuts) i just hope so bad its just stress and i havent developed hashimotos or something cause i aint taking no thyroid medication for the rest of my life lol the alopecia patch is still spreading and ive been using topical steroids for a month, its near half my beard at this point
@@silvana8737 I did, said it wasn't alopecia but it obviously is, prescribed me with steroid cream which isn't doing anything and told me to put it on before bed of all times.. so now it gets on my pillow and blanket and all over me, I'm done with the doctors never a good experience
As much as i find this stuff interesting… there is nothing wrong with aging and looking like you have lived a life. I dont want people to obsess over their wrinkles or feel bad.
I'll just take a wild guess, how about getting older? Oh no, that couldn't possibly be, it must be everything we do wrong and of course eating the wrong dangerous foods, because nobody has to age if they don't want to right?
Limit exposure to the sun, drink plenty of liquids, eat lots of veggies, shower every 2-3 days in not-so-hot water with less soap, smoke less, use a good quality moisturizer, and when sleeping on your side rest your head at the back when against the pillow (5-8 hours per night for decades--the face has to conform) and if you wish, do facial exercises. This is what works for me.
@@ilhamazad Taking daily hot showers depletes the essential oils in our skin. It's not like we have unlimited amounts of it, and so the skin over time dries and wrinkles sooner. You can delay it somewhat with "moisterizers" but the inevitable will happen. Of course, keeping your private parts clean can be done without a hot shower.
Thank you so much. No repetitious facial expression. Maybe facial expression exercises? Or live alone? Or try to control facial expressions. Be mindful of facial expressions. God bless!
@@Annie-eg9xc The melanin is the key to smooth skin. Asians produce more melanin than Europeans and the various black people, originating in Africa, produce more melanin than the average Asian. I'm not sure why that was omitted in the discussion.
well, I'm going to address the elephant in the room you all masterfully pretend not to see. the way of eating, of which the vegan eating pattern is one in the front rows, where proteins are often ridiculously insufficiently abundant and of profoundly poor quality, certainly contribute to the rapid deterioration of the skin and thus the conspicuous appearance of wrinkles. it's no wonder that wrinkles appear at a time when the need for proteins increases, especially in old age, that we are unable to provide them due to an insufficiently efficient and worn out digestive system, or -- decisions that are not based on the imperatives of the human metabolism. you can pick between wrinkles and an ideology, but you can't have a cake and eat it too; the choice is entirely yours.
Lol the ignorance with this comment.... The typical human adult male only requires 56g of protein per day. Check the amino acid profile of wheat and check which amino acid is limiting--Lysine. Now, check the amino acid profile of beans and check which amino acid is in abundance--Lysine. Combine the two and you suddenly get a very high quality protein. Also did you know that soy is equal to beef in protein quality?
I assume the remark refers to your comment. PDCAAS as a scoring system of protein quality slowly fades into the past, precisely because it allowed manipulations of a similar degree. amino acids that originate from plant protein are not of the same level of bioavailability as those from animal protein. they are not interchangeable, which means the intake of plant-based protein must be taken in considerably larger quantities in order to reach the same level of bioavailability. the new scoring system will not allow manipulations of the same kind. also, the absolute minimum protein intake is even higher than the one you state, probably not enough for survival, let alone for an optimal way of living. apart from the fact that this amount is ridiculously small, it was calculated on the basis of the quality of animal protein, not plant protein, and on the population in their early twenties, which automatically results in a significantly higher amount of necessary daily protein intake for anyone who is any older. the need for high quality proteins increases with age, not other way around. in short, everything you said is baseless and quite wrong, so it would not be out of place to invest some time in renewing your meager knowledge.
Just discovered my blood pressure medicine I started after a bout of covid (AmloDipine) depletes Collagen! So disappointed I could tell I was having my skin age rapidly! Thought it was just covid, I had no skin ageing till I started that medication! Got me wondering about other prescriptions, Metformin, that blocks B12 absorption! Wow and I did take B12 being vegan but minimal dose, been vegan 6 years and guess what am getting nerve damage issue despite keeping sugar down! Gonna stop Metformin felt better off it, than boost my B12 for a while!
Your skin is your largest organ. Its your defense against the environment. It's also the most visible. So keeping it healthy via good nutrition and avoiding risk factors, makes perfect sense. Just like it does for any other organ in your body, be it your heart, brain, gut, etc😊
Funny story: I moved to Asia and saw a doctor there. The first thing he said to me when I came into his office was, "Your skin doesn't look too bad for a Caucasian." Gee, thanks.

With UV damage and collagen loss, which for most people just means older age, you'll get more sleep wrinkles. Children, whose faces are plump, moist and full of undamaged elastin and collagen will not. Worse they get is a puffy face, which vanishes within an hour of waking.
Good point, too, about moisturizing dry skin. There are a variety of oils on the market, I like squalene and rose hip myself. Just make sure they are organic and hexane free.
What about microneedling? I heard ppl use that.
And what about fasting? heard that also helps with skin
I would love if he covered those. Now I’m curious what the research shows.
Bad ironing
😂🙃♥️
People with more body fat have fewer wrinkles than people with low body fat. The fat beneath the skin helps.
i have deep lines above my right eyebrow but i cant actually raise that eyebrow on its own so i just figured it was either a lack of muscle and blood flow on that side, i do sleep mostly on that side, also the room light is on that side i wonder if thats caused it.. i also used to stand in the sun for hours trying to get tanned as possible every day and have smoked sinse i was 14 yet luckily everyone cant beleive my age presumably because ive been a strict vegan for 10 years, those lines do make that side of my face look alot older tho, my fully white friends who arent vegan and dont go in the sun much at all have those lines going across there whole forehead, im getting there but im about to buy some retinol and vitamin c creams to try stop it lol, my biggest worry at the moment is this alopecia in my beard tho, using topical steroids but the spot just seems to get bigger and bigger, pretty much ruining my life as its still obvious when clean shaved as i have thick dark beard hair, its possible stress has caused it but after some googling i fear i could have thyroid problems maybe from smoking, it came on right after i quit weed and still smoked tobacco, im slowly quitting tobacco now, also eating 2 sheets of nori a day but that hasnt seemed to help either, they say the people with the most blessings have the most curses and thats me right now
Probier doch mal Pflaster z.b. kinesiopflaster űber Nacht oder wenn du zu Hause bist. Wenn man sie nichts falsch klebt, kann passieren das du morgens mehr falten hast. Aber mir hilft das. Außerdem vermische ich immer gute Őle mit einer Creme, ich nehme nur natűrliche. Auch Gesichtsyoga/Gymnastic hilft.
Research showed vitamin C serum had no benefit to those consuming adequate dietary (or supplemental) vitamin C, with respect to wrinkles.
@@djayjp surprised dr greger didn't mention this.. if this is the case then surely it would be the same for retinol which is vitamin A
I think it's because if you act like a child while you're an adult, you will stay wrinkle free, forever young.

Thank you so much. Like Dr. John McDougall, who is constantly educating women about the futility of modern healthcare, Dr. Greger is also educating women to make the right choices about everything. God bless!
If we can't do anything about wrinkles I guess an antidote for radiation from a nuclear explosion is out of the question?
can you please touch on alopecia in the beard, i wrote a list of what could be causing mine and i had moisuturizer (dht blockers), fragrances (edc disruptors), hay fever (alergies), lost a pet and quit weed (stress) smoking tobacco (since young, mixed with weed but now on its own till i quit that 2) daily workouts (physical stress) caffeine, kale, soy protein isolate, sunscreen, and maybe a lack of zinc and iodine (now eating 2 sheets of nori most days and have started eating walnuts) i just hope so bad its just stress and i havent developed hashimotos or something cause i aint taking no thyroid medication for the rest of my life lol the alopecia patch is still spreading and ive been using topical steroids for a month, its near half my beard at this point
Go to the doctor and get it checked!
@@silvana8737 I did, said it wasn't alopecia but it obviously is, prescribed me with steroid cream which isn't doing anything and told me to put it on before bed of all times.. so now it gets on my pillow and blanket and all over me, I'm done with the doctors never a good experience
As much as i find this stuff interesting… there is nothing wrong with aging and looking like you have lived a life. I dont want people to obsess over their wrinkles or feel bad.
I'll just take a wild guess, how about getting older? Oh no, that couldn't possibly be, it must be everything we do wrong and of course eating the wrong dangerous foods, because nobody has to age if they don't want to right?
Useless comment 😂
Not all older people have wrinkles, so chronological age is not the determining factor.
Limit exposure to the sun, drink plenty of liquids, eat lots of veggies, shower every 2-3 days in not-so-hot water with less soap, smoke less, use a good quality moisturizer, and when sleeping on your side rest your head at the back when against the pillow (5-8 hours per night for decades--the face has to conform) and if you wish, do facial exercises. This is what works for me.
Can you explain how the shower helps - sounds interesting.
@@ilhamazad Taking daily hot showers depletes the essential oils in our skin. It's not like we have unlimited amounts of it, and so the skin over time dries and wrinkles sooner. You can delay it somewhat with "moisterizers" but the inevitable will happen. Of course, keeping your private parts clean can be done without a hot shower.
I guess good thing I've been alone for most of my 52 years...
Women!
Thank you so much. No repetitious facial expression. Maybe facial expression exercises? Or live alone? Or try to control facial expressions. Be mindful of facial expressions. God bless!
please don't say wrinkles are caused by sugar! please! please! please!
Wrinkles are wisdom lines
Тупости.
У мудрых нет морщин
Can we not? Wrinkles are ugly lol nothing wise about them.
Smile lines 😢
So it’s true us white people wrinkle earlier lol
So our solutions are relax, be emotionless and/or Asian?
That’s stupid. Asians also get wrinkles. He even says that East Asian women get more wrinkles around the eyes.
Be black. That's the best for smooth skin that holds into old age.
@@LisaCulton ha! No
@@Annie-eg9xc The melanin is the key to smooth skin. Asians produce more melanin than Europeans and the various black people, originating in Africa, produce more melanin than the average Asian. I'm not sure why that was omitted in the discussion.
@@LisaCulton because it’s not true.
Zgv
Genetics, be born black
Nah lots of black ppl with saggy skin and wrinkles.
well, I'm going to address the elephant in the room you all masterfully pretend not to see. the way of eating, of which the vegan eating pattern is one in the front rows, where proteins are often ridiculously insufficiently abundant and of profoundly poor quality, certainly contribute to the rapid deterioration of the skin and thus the conspicuous appearance of wrinkles.
it's no wonder that wrinkles appear at a time when the need for proteins increases, especially in old age, that we are unable to provide them due to an insufficiently efficient and worn out digestive system, or -- decisions that are not based on the imperatives of the human metabolism. you can pick between wrinkles and an ideology, but you can't have a cake and eat it too; the choice is entirely yours.
Lol the ignorance with this comment.... The typical human adult male only requires 56g of protein per day. Check the amino acid profile of wheat and check which amino acid is limiting--Lysine. Now, check the amino acid profile of beans and check which amino acid is in abundance--Lysine. Combine the two and you suddenly get a very high quality protein. Also did you know that soy is equal to beef in protein quality?
I assume the remark refers to your comment.
PDCAAS as a scoring system of protein quality slowly fades into the past, precisely because it allowed manipulations of a similar degree. amino acids that originate from plant protein are not of the same level of bioavailability as those from animal protein. they are not interchangeable, which means the intake of plant-based protein must be taken in considerably larger quantities in order to reach the same level of bioavailability. the new scoring system will not allow manipulations of the same kind.
also, the absolute minimum protein intake is even higher than the one you state, probably not enough for survival, let alone for an optimal way of living. apart from the fact that this amount is ridiculously small, it was calculated on the basis of the quality of animal protein, not plant protein, and on the population in their early twenties, which automatically results in a significantly higher amount of necessary daily protein intake for anyone who is any older. the need for high quality proteins increases with age, not other way around.
in short, everything you said is baseless and quite wrong, so it would not be out of place to invest some time in renewing your meager knowledge.
@@v.a.n.e.So many words just for them all to be straight for your ass. Source needed for everything you just claimed.
I'm an old man and I love old women, wrinkles or not. 💋
Just discovered my blood pressure medicine I started after a bout of covid (AmloDipine) depletes Collagen! So disappointed I could tell I was having my skin age rapidly! Thought it was just covid, I had no skin ageing till I started that medication!
Got me wondering about other prescriptions, Metformin, that blocks B12 absorption! Wow and I did take B12 being vegan but minimal dose, been vegan 6 years and guess what am getting nerve damage issue despite keeping sugar down! Gonna stop Metformin felt better off it, than boost my B12 for a while!
That must've been really frustrating! Thanks for sharing your experience.
Lol, where is the proof for this?
I hope someday you will make some videos about the studies that explain the Covid dangers and sequelae.
What Causes Wrinkles?...Not enough spray starch.
I like Dr Gregor but I wish he'd sign off his videos, perhaps with a phrase (remember, put it to the test), rather than just going quiet. It's weird.
My kid 😂
Just eat gelatin every day
Where's your peer reviewed study on it?
I thought this was a nutritional podcast
so glad he touches on skin and hair, has saved me big time u have no idea
His newest book is How Not to Age
Your skin is your largest organ. Its your defense against the environment. It's also the most visible.
So keeping it healthy via good nutrition and avoiding risk factors, makes perfect sense. Just like it does for any other organ in your body, be it your heart, brain, gut, etc😊
Anyone else have a chuckle when he compared Caucasian to Asian skin, but also knows that Caucasians are Asians. We should retire the phrase.
Funny story: I moved to Asia and saw a doctor there. The first thing he said to me when I came into his office was, "Your skin doesn't look too bad for a Caucasian." Gee, thanks.
Основная причина это твержый жир под кожей.
