Wrinkles from minoxidil
I have read no reports of minoxidil causing wrinkles. However, hair loss and wrinkles might happen at about the same time so someone might be able to do a study showing a relationship. It is not cause and effect.

Minoxidil is an antihypertensive medication with a side effect of promiting hair growth. Wrinkle formation is not a known or identified side effectof this medication.

Minoxidil does NOT cause wrinkles
To the best of my knowledge wrinkles are caused by aging, diet, stress, sun exposure among others. Minoxidil is not associated with wrinkle formation.
