What does the health insurance company pay?

Summary
On the one hand, wrinkles occur as a natural aging process, on the other hand they occur in mechanically highly stressed areas of the body. It is assumed that the amino acids necessary for skin regeneration decrease with increasing age, so that the skin cannot return to its smooth, flat original position as quickly. What remains is a slightly wrinkled area that increases in thickness as the skin ages.
There are numerous factors that contribute to a faster formation of wrinkles. Sun and UV light, reduced fluid absorption and reduced hydration of the skin also lead to faster wrinkling. Unhealthy lifestyles and inadequate nutrition also lead to faster skin aging.
The cosmetic industry offers numerous care products that are designed both to prevent the formation of wrinkles and to reduce wrinkle formation (wrinkle treatment) that has already occurred. However, the effectiveness cannot usually be confirmed. Plastic surgery also has numerous approaches to wrinkle treatment.
They range from minimally invasive injections of the skin to complex botox injections and even facelifts. All in all, it must be noted that the formation of wrinkles is a natural aging process that cannot be stopped, or at best, slightly delayed.
