Skin withering is a natural process, but quite unpleasant and extremely depressing for women.This does not need to happen in adulthood.Almost from the moment of puberty, the skin begins to age.But this doesn't have to be a disaster.Wrinkles do not appear unexpectedly.The skin gradually loses elasticity, turgor, becomes pale, sebum secretion decreases and the pores stretch.This should be the first sign for you.
The first wrinkles appear on the forehead.Next, grooves are “cut” from the nose to the chin, in the outer corners of the eyes and, finally, in the neck, chin and upper lip.Wrinkles can be seen in people of all ages.Past infectious and chronic diseases, disorders of the nervous and endocrine systems, female, gastrointestinal and other diseases weaken the general resistance of the body, reduce the elasticity of the skin and it begins to wrinkle.Therefore, wrinkles can appear from a very young age.Frequent exposure to the outdoors, especially if the weather conditions are unfavorable, as well as tanning, cause premature wrinkles.Keep this in mind when you're outdoors.Sea air is not only rich in iodine and ozone, but also contains sea salt, which destroys the skin.You can ruin your skin by incorrectly performing the simplest cosmetic and hygiene procedures.Frequent washing with hot water, soap and the use of liquid powder and colored creams significantly accelerate the aging process.
If this happens very prematurely, see a doctor or visit a cosmetologist.Perhaps you suffer from some kind of disease or make serious mistakes in skin care.But you can help the skin a little to activate regeneration mechanisms, stimulate metabolism and also help restore collagen fibers.For people with sagging skin, a general strengthening regimen is also necessary: daily gymnastics, sports exercises, walking.It is recommended to take vitamin B1 and also massage your face.The first sessions should be carried out no more than once every three days and, as the skin tone increases, every other day.The entire course of treatment consists of 15 to 20 massage sessions.
Wrinkles occur in people of all ages, even very young girls.Sometimes this is due to overly excited facial expressions and grimaces.The way you laugh also contributes to the formation of wrinkles.For some people, laughter causes a sharp contraction of all facial muscles.Premature appearance of wrinkles is also observed when the head is incorrectly positioned during sleep.Many people sleep with a pillow high up, their head resting on their chest, and wrinkles on their neck and chin.
However, a serious problem is wrinkles that form with age-related changes in the body.Between the ages of 30 and 40, the number of wrinkles increases.The skin undergoes significant changes: it loses density and elasticity due to the degeneration and death of elastic fibers.If a sharp delineation of wrinkles begins on the forehead, nasolabial folds, chin and the skin becomes saggy, it is necessary to take serious care of the skin.
It is recommended to lightly tap your face with your fingertips for 5 minutes every day.This improves blood circulation in the skin and strengthens it.It is also advisable to clean your face with cold saline solution (half a teaspoon of salt per glass of water).People with developing wrinkles should avoid direct exposure to sunlight.Always apply cream to your face before going out.
Procedures that prevent skin aging and the formation of wrinkles include oil wraps, compresses, irritants, the most natural and effective of which is honey.It is true that for this it is necessary that you are not prone to allergic reactions and that the capillaries are not close to the skin.Products that help restore collagen are substances containing pectin: apples, currants, blueberries and intensive masks made from these products.
Oil compresses and bandages are very powerful remedies.To prepare them, fold a towel or napkin into a strip 20–25 cm wide, dip it in hot water, wring it out and place it on your face.The middle of the compress covers the chin from below and the ends are applied to the cheeks, forehead and nose (only the mouth and nostrils are free).
All masks can be used in this way: apply to the skin, cover with gauze and place a warm, damp towel on top.It is necessary to keep this compress for about 40 minutes, periodically changing the towel so that it is always warm.
Products ready for skin showing the first signs of aging are the “Emergency Help” lines: creams and intensive care products, with bioadditives, active ingredients and, probably, hormones.That is why such lines should be used in courses - as much as necessary, no more.Don't be tempted to extend these courses as this could have the opposite effect.The effectiveness of such remedies lies in their correct use.
Cosmetics for skin rejuvenation
We should probably talk about these means in more detail.Before looking for the elixir of youth on the shelves, go to the gynecologist.External aging and loss of attractiveness are often associated with disorders of the reproductive system.Pay attention to the menstrual cycle, the condition of the mammary glands and general health.Sometimes the reason isn't where we're looking.
But if your problem is cosmetic, you should choose what's best for you.Therefore, do not fall for a random advertisement in the centerfold of a women's magazine, but turn to the catalogs.Many companies offer cosmetic lines for mature skin, but when choosing, you should still give preference to those that specifically specialize in medicinal cosmetics and care cosmetics.Product catalogs, which literally flood all cosmetics stores, will help you with this.In these catalogs, decorative cosmetics are presented only for the sake of completeness, while the main part is devoted to various care products.Oriflame produces good emergency and care products for mature skin, as well as cosmetics to combat acne and anti-cellulite products.
All anti-aging products can be divided into several groups: products that provide vitamins, products with a lifting effect and products that use biologically active substances for rejuvenation.
The vitamin content in these products varies.In Europe, there are more serious restrictions on vitamin content, so Swedish, German and French products are more gentle.In Europe, anti-aging products with pure, gentle retinol that do not contain critical doses are common.
In America, these standards do not apply, so American products contain large doses of vitamins, especially A and E. If you want to get an instant effect, turn to these products made in the USA.In America, however, these medicines are available with a prescription, but in Europe many of these medicines are simply banned.Although this rarely stops our women.
Antioxidant complexes are no longer just retinoids, but a complex of vitamins and dietary supplements.Many products are made from natural substances.These are more complex and promising medicines.The effect of all these substances is protective, general strengthening and replaces what the skin loses with aging.Many products contain collagen along with an anti-aging complex, which replenishes its deficiency in the skin.The oval of the face is strengthened, the cheeks become rounded, and the nasolabial folds and chin folds are less noticeable.
Products that have a lifting and peeling effect are varied, but essentially differ only in the depth of action and additives for nutrition and stimulation of regeneration.The main thing is to provide the skin with adequate nutrition after lifting.If this procedure is abused, the reserves of new cell regeneration will be depleted and the skin will become dry, brittle and wrinkles will attack it with force.Peeling and lifting should not be carried out excessively.
Gentle exfoliants combined with substances that stimulate cell growth and division are the best choice.Improved nutrition with a complex of vitamins and mineral supplements, fats, protectors and disinfectants - this is what the skin needs after peeling and lifting.
The most expensive new products are those that contain hormones, biological material and overdoses of various vitamins.Hormones are clearly harmful and cannot be used long term unless it is for treatment due to hormonal disorders.Its regular use leads to changes in the body's hormonal levels.The hormonal system is a delicate area and interference with it can lead to irreversible and unpredictable consequences, and not just for the skin.One thing is reliably and definitively known: if a certain hormone regularly enters the body, it stops being produced.Therefore, the opinion of many researchers and doctors is that only the use of hormones for a short period is justified, so to speak, as an impetus to recovery.
Various biological materials used in the latest developments, from placenta preparations (the safest) to sperm and endocrine glands, have been used in cosmetology since time immemorial;magical and magical properties were attributed to them.There is a lot of historical evidence and descriptions of the most exotic methods of rejuvenation using these drugs.
Your material well-being, the condition of your skin, the strength of your desire to prolong youth, the hopelessness of the situation, as well as the courage necessary for such experiments - these are your advisors in this case.But forget about guarantees!
In the first phase, when there are practically no wrinkles, you should use products that contain vitamins A and E, and so-called antioxidant complexes.It can be combined with taking oral vitamins.This is the first and gentlest way to help your skin recover.In Europe, these medicines are preferred because they are the safest and most effective.Its use significantly delays the appearance of the first wrinkles.
Do not forget about the oval of the face, which forms the answer to the question of how old you are in the visual analyzer.Collagen fibers and facial muscles atrophy and the roundness of your cheeks disappears, especially if you have had teeth extracted.Changes in skin color and smoking, coffee, tea and lack of fresh air accelerate this process.Therefore, the next stage is peeling in combination with nourishing and regenerating agents.
There are also products that retain water in fabrics.For some reason they are called “strengthening”, even though it is only a visual and short-term effect.These products cannot be called harmful, but they also do not contain anything useful.In case you are “going out into the world” and are unhappy with your appearance, you can try one of these.They usually contain soy proteins.For some time, the skin will become firmer and firmer.The cream works for several hours.After that, the skin returns to its normal state.
Cosmetologists who study the problems of skin aging have made a surprising observation: when a woman is in love, she looks younger!Hormones are released that stimulate the regeneration of collagen fibers, the complexion changes and the skin acquires a radiant tone.So popular wisdom got it right again: a happy woman is always beautiful!
Additional rejuvenation products
There are few cosmetic products for skin rejuvenation.We will describe them in more detail in a separate chapter.Of course, not everything can be done at home.But something is available - massage, use of muscle stimulants, peelings for mature skin.Massage should not just be manual;the use of myostimulators with facial applicators helps a lot.Sometimes these devices are called “masks of youth”;there are other names.Some are equipped with noble metal electrodes.To enhance the effect, myogels and gels with various additives are used.
Why do these medicines help?The muscles of the face determine its contour.With age, muscles atrophy and this changes the face - the roundness characteristic of young people disappears, which contributes to the appearance of wrinkles.Myostimulators force training of facial muscles and can partially restore their elasticity and prevent their atrophy.
Peels for mature skin are strong exfoliating agents that remove the top layer of the epidermis, exposing a new layer of skin cells.
This is not peeling as such, but rather intensive care that should prolong the life of the cells in this new layer.After peeling, the most effective and nourishing creams should be applied to the skin to provide the best protection.Only in this way will the peeling effect not be reversed, as the cells that are exposed when the top layer is removed are extremely delicate and can be easily damaged.
There are methods that can be considered almost surgical - introduction of biogels, implantation of gold threads, mesotherapy.And finally, there is ridectomy, or surgical method of rejuvenation, which we call lifting.You should not rush into the most radical methods until all other possibilities have been exhausted.This is the only advice that can be given to anyone who chooses a way to recover runtime.It is necessary to start, of course, with peelings and intensive masks, and the “Emergency” cosmetic lines.Some masks produce a simply incredible effect, despite their composition being completely simple.Gelatin, apple, currant and blueberry help restore collagen fibers, honey promotes regeneration.You can add a drop of an oily solution of vitamins A and E, aloe vera extract, gingko biloba and ginseng to the masks.
