Premature Aging Factors

We know that we cannot change the natural aging process. It is natural for our skin to lose some of its youthfulness. Our skin becomes thinner and drier. It is our genes that control these changes. This is called “intrinsic aging.”

Our environment and our lifestyle can cause our skin to age prematurely. This is called “extrinsic aging.” We can stop the effects that this type of aging has on our skin.

“We firmly believe that prevention is the most important step in having healthy and long-lasting skin”

It is no secret that the sun plays an important role in the premature aging of our skin. Other things like bad eating habits and an improper skin care routine at home can also age our skin faster than it would naturally.

Tips and Tricks:

• Avoid sun exposure. Sun protection is essential. You can protect yourself with sunglasses with UV protection and by using broad spectrum physical sunscreen, SPF 30+. You should apply sunscreen every day and do not forget to reapply every two hours if you are out in the sun.
• Smoking speeds up skin ages. Causing wrinkles and a pale, dull complexion.
• Wearing sunglasses can help reduce wrinkles caused by squinting.
• Avoid repetitive facial expressions
• Eat a healthy and balanced diet. Eating plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables can help prevent damage that leads to premature skin aging. Foods that contain a lot of sugar or other refined carbohydrates can accelerate aging.
• Drink less alcohol. Alcohol dehydrates the skin over time. This can make us look older.
• Exercise. Moderate exercise can improve circulation and boost the immune system. This can also give the skin a more youthful appearance.
• Gently cleanse your skin day and night. Removes pollution, makeup, sweat and other substances that stick to the skin during the day.
• Apply a facial moisturizer every day. The moisturizer traps the water in our skin, giving it a more youthful appearance.
• Choose a suitable maintenance routine for specific to the needs of your skin.
