There are a number of reasons why your skin will look older – some of which you can control and other, you can’t.
For example, if your estrogen levels are dropping, sooner or later, you’ll have to deal with sagging skin and so on and so forth.
But it isn’t all bad news – anti-aging care has developed to an extent where people can begin to delay this process.
That said, here are 4 anti-aging tips that you must consider:
#1: Think about what you eat
Even if you think that applying products on your body will work, it’s a good idea to also focus on your diet. The reason for this is that younger skin begins with the nutrients you give your body. Drink more water, take a vitamin D supplement as well as foods that have omega-3 and omega-6 acids. Avoid processed foods and sugars as much as possible.
#2: Use a retinoid
While there are a number of ‘cosmoceutical products’ available, the best option available is a topical cream that can reverse the aging process. These retinoids are vitamin-A derivative compounds that have a host of benefits apart from boosting collagen production as well as cell turnover.
#3: Opt for cosmetic procedures that will regenerate your skin
There are a number of skin products and procedures that delay aging but it’s a good idea to be selective and pick ones that help your skin regenerate. One of these options include trying peels or even fractional resurfacing.
#4: Reduce sun exposure by half
The number one reason for skin aging is UV exposure. Apart from skin cancer, they play a major role in reducing collagen production, damaging elastin while discoloring and roughing texture.
