As you age, your skin looses its elasticity and becomes frail. It produces less natural oils and your skin becomes dry therefore you are more prone to wrinkles. Early appearance of wrinkles on the other hand is a factor which can be prevented using the right methods.
Too much exposure to the sun will give you a great tan – for the mean time, but it will take its toll on your skin in the form of premature wrinkling. The sun’s rays breakdown the collagen and elastin fibers underneath your skin so it loses its strength and flexibility. The results are wrinkles and sagging skin.
Smoking and other unhealthy habits can greatly contribute to wrinkling and other damages to the skin and body. Smoking causes change in the blood supply in the skin and speeds the natural aging process of the body. Alcohol and unhealthy diet on the other hand creates free radicals in your body resulting to cell damage and since unhealthy habits doesn’t provide the necessary repairing nutrients, the damaged cells cannot regenerate and eventually add up as a wrinkle to your young skin.
