- Wear a sunscreen with SPF 30 or more to avoid the ultra violet rays of the sun, which causes wrinkles on the skin.
- Always wear sunglasses with 100% UV protection when you go out in the sun
- Sleeping on your back helps smooth out the wrinkles because gravity works to pull the skin backward. If you cannot sleep on your back, at least try to switch sides frequently.
