Sauna & wrinkles: Using a sauna doesn't cause wrinkles, however, using a sauna can dry your skin, which can appear scaly and wrinkly. That type of wrinkling would be reversed by a moisturizer. Actual wrinkles are primarily caused by sun damage with some contribution from other things like smoking, pollution, etc.
