Nope: This will have absolutely no effect on whether or not you develop wrinkles or how severe future wrinkles might be. The two main ways to prevent or reduce the risk and prominence of wrinkled skin is 1) do not smoke and 2) limit sun exposure (or use sunblock routinely), especially if you spend time in sunnier places than London.
