Aging is a privilege denied to many...Preventive measures are the best measures
Everybody!!! lets be real, lets face facts, lets succumb to reality!! Wrinkles and Aging lines are inevitable and more importantly, a privilege denied to many. Beautiful healthy skin is something that requires work and maintenance, just like anything worth while. Preventative skin care measures will the slow the aging process and assist you in maintaining beautiful skin, long after it should have faded.
Aging is an undeniable process that will change your appearance. After accepting this fact, the question then becomes how and when? Preventative care on your skin can severely lessen the impact that aging and other factors have on the formation of wrinkles, and the overall smoothness of your skin. Understanding the factors that affect your skin’s health as you age will provide you an edge in limiting the affect of aging and environment, while at the same time creating a skin care regimen that can keep your skin looking beautiful and fresh long into the advanced ages.
The first step to beautiful skin as you age is steering clear of the easily avoidable practices and behaviors that will unquestionably damage your skin and speed up the aging process. If you have not started smoking; then don’t. If you currently are a smoker; do your best to quit. The dryness and harsh environment that smoking creates will cause dehydration and puckering in your face. The effect will be an accelerated aging process that will form brittle skin and wrinkles, long before you are due to inherit them.
Another easy irritant to avoid is the sun. Too much sun can dehydrate and damage your skin. The result will be increased wrinkling and even the potential of harmful blemishes or spots that could become cancerous if ignored. However, that is not to say that all spotting or blemishes due to sun damage are cancerous. Most are benign and can be removed by a common dermatologist, but overexposure to the sun should never be taken as allowable for the sake of a tanned look. There is such a thing as too much.
Combating the aging process can be fairly simple if you take a proactive approach. Staying hydrated and moisturizing cannot be ignored if you want to reduce most of the negative aspects of the aging process. Drink water, use moisturizing lotions, and don’t feel bad about treating yourself to a facial or clinical skin care treatment. Investing in these will pay off in beautiful skin and a healthy feel.
Daily exercise, along with deep breathing, helps blood circulation, oxygenation, and control of stress. Adequate beauty sleep and relaxation is vital. Hear that ladies? Relaxation is vital! Make sure you let all your dudes know that what your doing is important ;)
When handling your skin, gentle movements and a light touch are essential to remove makeup, apply creams and exfoliate. It's best not to massage the eye area so that the skin does not get pulled or stretched in any way. Your skin is a living organ, just like your heart and your brain. It's built to repair and heal itself with a little help from you. Leaving creams and lotions (especially heavy ones) overnight is not helpful (with exception to mature skin, since mature skin is due to lack of function due to aging). Your skin is constantly working to turn over new cell growth and replenish itself, at night, with the hours that you are still and at rest not bothered by the harsh environments of the outside world its working unbothered. So dont bother it! It's good it'll do its job on its own. Leaving creams and lotions on will interrupt its natural process and leave your skin eventually relying on the creams to do its job for it. Just don't do it k.
Also, do not be afraid to seek professional help. As stated above, wrinkling and blemishes are part of aging. Acceptance and diagnosis comes first, with personalized treatment coming after. Dermatologists and skin care professionals employed by many day spas and beauty salons will have expert opinions and diagnostics that will help you to isolate what exactly is causing a blemish, and effectively treat it. A consultation is a relatively inexpensive appointment, and can be supremely beneficial in maintaining beautiful, healthy skin as you age.
