We dream of staying young and beautiful as long as possible.This natural aging process does not suit us.Those who are particularly sensitive to their reflection seek salvation in beauty salons or surrender to the power of plastic surgeons.The purpose of this publication is to talk about skin rejuvenation at home.What can we do first and foremost?
Know the enemy by sight
Why do we age and change in appearance?Why do some people look much younger than others without the help of plastic surgeons?It is very important to know this in order to develop our own rejuvenation strategy.
Imagine that we start getting old at 18!Our skin cannot stay young and age forever.This process is inevitable.And we have to accept that.
First, excess skin is formed around the eyes, small, barely noticeable mimic wrinkles in the corners of the eyes;the outer corners of the eyebrows and the nasolabial folds descend.This happens before the age of 30.
Over the age of 40, the primary signs of facial skin aging intensify and new ones appear: the eyelids become heavy, the skin on the chin becomes flabby, the cheeks sag, and large wrinkles appear between the eyebrows.
By the age of 50, our cheeks almost merge with our chin due to sagging.And oh, horror, the face loses its clear contours!Sometimes the tip of the nose is elongated.
At the age of 60, obvious changes can be observed, the skin becomes thinner and drier, which results in the formation of deep wrinkles.
There are several types of facial aging in women:
- A tired face manifests itself in a decrease in skin elasticity.In the morning, after a good night's sleep, he looks rested and fresh, but in the evening he clearly takes on a senile expression.This aging is typical for oily or combination skin.This can be caused by frequent stress, smoking, fatigue, lack of sleep.
- A wrinkled face is characteristic of sensitive, thin skin.The small wrinkles cover the entire surface with a mesh.Causes: frequent and long sun exposure, dry skin.
- The gravitas type affects obese women with heavy facial features.Due to excess subcutaneous fat, there are practically no wrinkles, but over time, thick, sagging folds develop.Causes: overweight, accompanying diseases, oily skin.
- The combined appearance indicates premature aging of the face.In this case, several signs appear.There are wrinkles, the elasticity of the skin decreases and the cheeks sag.They are caused by the large number of free radicals in the body and prolonged exposure to ultraviolet radiation.
- The least noticeable signs of aging are on the face, where the skin has a small layer of subcutaneous tissue - this is muscle aging.First, wrinkles (crow's feet) develop near the eyes, then fat folds and marked nasolabial folds begin to fall above the upper eyelid.There is only one reason - age.
Despite the different morphotypes of aging, their causes are common to everyone.Early and natural aging of the skin tissue occurs.The second occurs gradually, according to the program of biological transformation of cells.
The main causes of premature aging:
- circulatory disorders;
- hormonal imbalance;
- slow cell recovery;
- dehydration;
- exposure to ultraviolet radiation;
- tension;
- lack of vitamins and microelements;
- heredity;
- alcohol abuse;
- smoking;
- adverse environment;
- lack of facial care.
