Anything that 'smooths' out wrinkles (other than surgery to stretch the skin out) has to be either an irritant or a elasticity agent. The irritant causes the area to be 'puffy' to different degrees and gives the appearance of a 'wonder' treatment. This irritation gradually diminishes, hence, daily or weekly ...or whatever - treatments. The elasticity agent makes the skin more flexible and an application of a tightening agent will then make wrinkles seem to dissapear - also a temporary treatment. Neither can be good for you. Aging produces wrinkles. Unless it is severe, it is a 'badge of courage'. A sign of maturity. A look of distinction.
