The craving to look healthy and young spurs millions of women – as well as men – to look for treatments improving the appearance of their skin. There is nothing unhealthy about wrinkles and sags, and a great many people accept the way they look. However, society of today sends the message that beauty matters. And looking our best can strengthen self-confidence.
What makes skin age?
Have you ever wanted to know why some people boast gorgeous-looking skin in their 40s, while some 20-year-olds show signs of aging? Your skin ages according to your biological clock, which is determined by your generic makeup, and your exposure to the sun. Overexposure to the sun, as well as smoking, pollution and strain, speed skin aging.
Your skin lacks moisture and collagen, the connective tissue that makes skin firm and elastic. As a result, you have to deal with wrinkled sagging skin, age spots, as well as an uneven distribution of fat. How to take care of skin?
Daily use of moisturizing products and suncreams which protect the skin from ultraviolet rays, both UVA and UVB, is one of the most efficient ways to prevent skin damage, rejuvenate skin and protect yourself from skin cancer. You should opt for one with an SPF of at least 15. Begin applying sunscreen when you're young.
Antiwrinkle products
There are many no-prescription solutions for reducing wrinkles and fine lines. They typically contain - alpha hydroxyl acid (AHA), retinoids, antioxidants, or tropical growth factors. Prescription retinoid creams are also available. AHA creams can be used alone or together with a retinoid to treat mildly damaged skin. They may improve the texture, make the skin firmer and more elastic by speeding exfoliation and stimulating collagen. Retinoids work better when applied with AHA products. If applied within a few years, they will keep on reversing skin aging, antioxidants and growth factors may also help reverse environmental damage to skin.
