Why do we age and our appearance changes?Why do some people look younger than others without the help of plastic surgeons?It is very important for us to know this in order to develop our own rejuvenation strategy.
Imagine that we start aging at the age of 18!Our skin cannot always stay young and does not age.This process is inevitable.And we have to accept that.
First of all, there is excess skin in the eye area, small, less noticeable facial wrinkles are formed in the corners of the eyes;the outer corners of the eyebrows and nasolabial folds are lowered.This happens before the age of 30.
When you are over 40 years old, the initial signs of facial skin aging intensify and new ones are added: the eyelids become heavy, the skin of the chin becomes pale, the cheeks sag, and large wrinkles form between the eyebrows.
By the age of 50, our cheeks almost meet our chin due to sagging.And oh, horror, the face loses its clear contours!Sometimes the tip of the nose is elongated.
At the age of 60, obvious changes are observed, the skin becomes thinner and drier, resulting in deep wrinkles.
There are several types of facial aging in women:
- A tired face is manifested by a decrease in skin elasticity.In the morning, after a good night's sleep, it looks rested and refreshed, but in the evening it takes on a distinctly old expression.This aging is typical for oily or combination skin.The reason can often be stress, smoking, fatigue, lack of sleep.
- A wrinkled face is characteristic of sensitive, thin skin.Small wrinkles cover the entire surface with a mesh.Causes: frequent and long exposure to the sun, dry skin.
- Gravitatis type affects obese women with severe facial features.Due to the excess of subcutaneous fat, there are practically no wrinkles, but over time, thick, sagging folds appear.Reasons: overweight, concomitant diseases, oily skin.
- Confused appearance refers to premature aging of the face.In this case, several types of different symptoms appear.There are wrinkles, a decrease in skin elasticity, sagging cheeks.They are caused by a large number of free radicals in the body and prolonged exposure to ultraviolet rays.
- The least noticeable signs of aging are on the face with a small layer of subcutaneous tissue - this is muscle aging.First, wrinkles appear near the eyes (crow's feet), then the fat layers above the upper eyelids and, obviously, the nasolabial folds begin to fall.There is only one reason - age.
Despite the different morphotypes of aging, their causes are common to all.There is premature and natural aging of the skin.Secondly, the biological transformation of cells occurs gradually according to the program.
