When it comes to ageing well, most of us know the basics by now: SPF<\/a> every day, a good retinol<\/a>, plenty of water. But there\u2019s a less glamorous contributor to the fine lines we\u2019d rather not have \u2013 one that happens in the eight or so hours we\u2019re supposed to be resting. If you\u2019re a front or side sleeper, chances are you\u2019ve woken up with a pillow crease bisecting your cheek like a topographical map. It fades, of course. But those creases \u2013 repeated night after night, year after year \u2013 can start to leave a more permanent impression. Which is precisely the thinking behind anti-wrinkle pillows.<\/p>\n

These are pillows engineered with specific cutouts, contoured shapes or raised supports designed to keep the face lifted away from direct compression. The logic is straightforward: if you can reduce the mechanical pressure and friction your skin is subjected to overnight, you can also slow the rate at which sleep lines become permanent ones.<\/p>\n

\u201cPillow face and sleep wrinkles are a real phenomenon,\u201d confirms consultant dermatologist Dr Ellie Rashid. \u201cThey result from continuous pressure, compression, stretching and pulling when the face is pressed into a pillow every night \u2013 particularly for those who sleep on their sides or stomachs.\u201d So the problem that anti-wrinkle pillows are trying to solve is, at least, a genuine one. Where it gets more complicated is in the evidence for the solution. \u201cI understand the concept \u2013 essentially keeping pressure off the face and discouraging compression on one side overnight,\u201d says Dr Rashid. \u201cBut my honest opinion is that the evidence is limited and very small-scale.\u201d<\/p>\n

Maria Sotiriou, co-founder of SILKE London, approaches it from a slightly different angle. For her, the conversation is as much about what the pillow is made of as the shape it comes in. \u201cI do believe pillowcases can contribute to wrinkles, particularly through repeated friction and compression during sleep,\u201d she explains. \u201cWe now understand much more about sleep creasing and how nightly pressure \u2013 especially for side sleepers \u2013 can contribute to lines becoming more permanent as skin naturally loses collagen and elasticity with age.\u201d The focus, she says, should be on protection and prevention: \u201creducing the daily wear that quietly accumulates over the years.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
