SKIN ANTIAGING
Preventing skin aging from extrinsic factors is quite
simple. Most skin damage is from photodamage
and smoking
so that is the best place to start on your skin antiaging
program:
- Stay out of the sun when its rays are strongest:
between 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.
- Avoid tanning beds
- If in the sun, use broad spectrum sun protection
of at least SPF15 20 minutes BEFORE exposure and reapply
after swimming or sweating.
- Wear Protective clothing in the sun
- Stop smoking
- Avoid harsh repetitive facial expressions –
placing a mirror on your desk for a couple of weeks
is very informative!!
- Give up facial exercises
- Drink plenty [6-8 200oz glasses] of water when
working in dry air conditioned environments
- Sleep on your back! - don't let gravity get the
upper hand.
Anti Aging Treatments
Treatments are widely available to prevent wrinkles
and turn back the clock, after signs of aging appear.
