SKIN AGING – REAL PHYSICAL & STRUCTURAL CHANGES.
Preservation is the Truth!
As we age, our skin undergoes various stimuli, including sun exposure, severe weather, and unhealthy habits. However, we can take precautions to keep our skin supple and youthful.
Your lifestyle, nutrition, heredity, and other personal habits will influence your skin's appearance. For example, smoking can generate free radicals, which are once-healthy oxygen molecules that have become hyperactive and unstable. Free radicals destroy cells, causing premature wrinkles, among other things.
There are different reasons and causes of skin aging:
- Normal Aging
- Sun Exposure (Photoaging)
- Pollution
- Loss of Subcutaneous Support: Fatty tissue between your skin and muscle.
Other factors contributing to skin aging include stress, gravity, obesity, sleeping, and daily facial cleansing.
What Skin Changes Occur with Age?
Real physical and structural changes occur naturally in the skin, bone, fat pads, etc., as we age:
- The Skin Roughens
- The Skin Develops Lesions: Such as benign tumors.
- Skin Becomes Saggy: Loses its elastic tissue (elastin) with aging, causing it to hang loosely.
- The Skin Gets More Translucent: Caused by epidermal thinning (surface layer of the skin).
- Skin Becomes More Delicate: Produced by flattening the area where the epidermis and dermis (the skin layer beneath the epidermis) meet.
- Skin Becomes More Prone to Bruises: Due to thinner blood vessel walls.
Changes beneath the skin become visible as we age:
- Fat Loss: Beneath the skin in the cheekbones, temples, chin, nose, and eye area, resulting in a thinner appearance, looser skin, sunken eyes, and a "skeleton" aspect.
- Bone Loss: After the age of 60, particularly around the mouth and chin, causing puckering of the skin around the mouth.
- Drooping of the Nasal Tip: Caused by cartilage loss in the nose, accentuating the bony features of the nose.
Importance of Maintaining Optimal Skin Health
Maintaining optimal skin health is important for several reasons:
- Aging Gracefully: Your skin won't look as bad if you've taken care of it throughout your life.
- Preventing Skin Conditions: Helps prevent conditions like acne, premature aging, pigmentations, dullness, and even skin cancer.
- Feeling Good: Healthy skin just feels good and gives you a glowing complexion that everyone will envy.
Tips for Maintaining Optimal Skin Health:
- Avoid Smoking and Excessive Sun Exposure: Major contributing factors to poor skin health.
- Eat a Healthy Diet: Consider intermittent fasting, and drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated.
- Invest in Antioxidants: Ones that do not create further sensitivity.
- Use Sunscreen Every Day: Even on cloudy days.
Reducing the Signs of Aging Skin
Methods for reducing the signs of aging include:
- Limit Sun Exposure and Wear Sunscreen: Sun exposure accelerates skin aging. Compare the skin on your hands to the skin on your buttocks for confirmation.
- Don't Smoke: Smoking causes skin aging and hastens the damage caused by sun exposure.
- Moisturize Regularly: Dry skin is more prone to fine lines and wrinkles. Use serums with hydrating fatty acids, ceramides, and hydrating antioxidants such as astaxanthin, all of which are packed into Savef Skin Essential Face Serum.
- Care for Your Skin: Use 'neutral' and pH-balanced soaps, body washes, and shampoos.
- Give Your Skin a Break: Switch to a simple routine with a gentle cleanser, serum full of antioxidants, ceramides, fatty acids, and a gentle cream.
- Reduce or Cut Alcohol Consumption: Alcohol consumption is linked to a higher risk of cutaneous melanoma.
- Regular SPF Use: If you are not going to practice regular use of SPF every 2 hours, you should avoid glycolic acid and prescription or harsh retinoids. These ingredients can cause photosensitivity, leading to further skin damage without proper sun protection.
