Restoring Youth to Your Facial Features

Aging happens to everyone, and your face is often the first place on which signs of aging become noticeable. Sometimes it becomes more difficult to maintain a youthful appearance as you grow older, but it doesn’t necessarily mean you need to live with signs of aging. There are several treatments you can have to restore a youthful appearance and help you feel more confident about the way you look.

Causes Of Aging

Some aging factors may be beyond your control. You may not be able to change the genetics that impact the speed at which you age, but there are some lifestyle habits that can speed up or slow down signs of aging, such as diet, sun exposure, exercise, and smoking.

Sagging skin, wrinkles, age spots, and fine lines are all signs of aging, and develop as a result of the deteriorating levels of collagen in your skin. Your skin is made up of thousands of small fibers that contain collagen. When collagen begins to decrease, the skin loses elasticity and isn’t as tight and smooth as it once was.

When collagen begins to decrease, you may experience one or more of the following characteristics on your face:

• The formation of a “second chin” under your jaw line.
• Drooping, sagging skin in the neck and mid-face (jowls).
• Creases that develop near the mouth and nose.
• Loss of volume and plumpness throughout the face.
• Drooping eyes and crow’s feet.
• Thick wrinkles on the forehead.

These signs of aging can make you appear older than you really are, which is why you should consider the numerous treatment options available that can help reverse signs of aging.

Early Treatment is Best

The best approach to anti-aging is to use a preventive treatment to maintain healthy collagen levels and stop signs of aging from appearing. Regular skin care treatments and other methods can allow you to maintain a youthful appearance so you can avoid some of the bigger, more invasive cosmetic procedures.
