We have so many options now to help prevent and reverse the signs of ageing. There are no more excuses for not being able to keep a youthful look because we know all the secrets now. Your skin starts to try and age as early as our mid – 20s. We start to get a few fine lines across the forehead, eyes and neck. If you do not do anything to help prevent this then these fine lines just keep getting worse, turning into wrinkles and then you may notice some sagging of the skin around your jawline when you are in your late 40s or early 50s if you're lucky.
This happens because as we get older our collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid start to breakdown and diminish. Our cell turn over slows down making it harder for your body to produce more and as quickly as it used to. When the process of the breakdown happens is when we start to notice that our skin structure, tone and texture are drastically changing. There are many factors that contribute to when the aging process starts to happen to you and how quickly it will proceed.
A major factor that contributes to how your skin will age is your genetics and hormones. These are biologicals and out of your control. There are factors however that we can help control to try and prevent the aging process. Sun exposure, diet, lifestyle, pollution, smoking, stress and sleep are all major factors to why we age. These are all manageable, let's break them down to how you can help avoid your skin aging.
Alongside with all of these factors we need to have a proper everyday skin regime to keep our skin clean, protected and help promote collagen production. Starting a skin regime at a young age, around puberty will give your skin the best chance it can get to stay youthful for longer. But it is also never too late to start one as well.
