When we sleep our skin gathers wrinkles after is rests on the pillow for a few hours. This happens when you sleep on your stomach and your face is pressed on the pillow for a few hours. In an ideal situation you need to sleep on your back in order to prevent wrinkles from forming on your face; however in most cases men and women have a tendency to sleep on their sides or stomach and exert pressure on their face for long periods of time.

If you relate with this condition and you wake up every morning with marks and lines on your face then I have a few suggestions that will help you out.

When you sleep in a position where you exert pressure on your face the liquids in your body accumulate in this region and cause wrinkles and fine lines to form on your face. In order to prevent this you need to massage your face as soon as you wake up in the morning. Use a light moisturizing lotion on your face and neck and gently massage your skin using your finger tips and circular movements to prevent fluid retention on your face and spread the liquids evenly.

Your pillows and the pillow case can make a huge difference if you make the right choices. Start with using pillows that you can fluff with ease. Also opt for satin pillow cases as opposed to cotton cases as the satin cases will cause less damage to your skin.

Using ice on your face will help to reduce the appearance of wrinkles on your face. There are several ways to use ice on your face to take care of this situation. You could use an ice pack on your face like a cold compress or rub ice on your face and neck.

Another way to use ice is to fill your sink with ice and pour some water over the ice. Place your face in the ice cold water for a few seconds. You can do this 4 to 5 times. Ice increase blood circulation in your face and helps to get rid of fluids and wrinkles on your face.
