How To Tackle The Roots Of Skin Ageing

What Causes Your Skin To Age?

Wrinkles, fine lines, and folds appear over time on your skin. As you naturally age there is a decrease in collagen and elastin production, this is where you will start to notice and develop ageing skin.

The skin needs the protein which are collagen and elastin, as this how they give your skin its form and texture as well as its supporting structure. Around 75 to 80 percent of the skin on the body is composed mostly of collagen.

External factors and aggressors also play a massive part in the ageing process. From the increase of free radicals in your body, exposure to the sun's UVA and UVB rays, your diet and lifestyle as well as pollution.

These are all factors that exacerbate the ageing process and prematurely age your skin.

How To Stop Skin Ageing

Even though genetics play a big part in how the skin ages, there are some lifestyle choices that may be made to delay the appearance of wrinkles.

There are different types of wrinkles that form on your face over time. The first is called dynamic wrinkles, which are made through repeated facial expressions, such as smiling with smile lines forming or frowning, where you get lines between your eyebrows.  

The next type of wrinkles are fine lines, these form around the eyes and mouth as these are the areas of the face that move the most when a person makes facial emotions, therefore fine lines are considerably thinner and shallower than dynamic wrinkles.

Wrinkles and fine lines can be significantly reduced by avoiding sun exposure or wearing sunscreen consistently. Using a retinol-containing cream or lotion may also help the skin remain wrinkle-free for longer. This is due to the ability of retinol, or vitamin A, to boost collagen formation.

Diet may also play a significant role. Vitamin-rich diets tend to keep skin appearing younger and healthier for longer than those without them do. Avoiding certain behaviours entirely, such as smoking, stress, and pollution, might also delay the appearance of wrinkles.
