Women's autumn time... What to do when the skin fades

Causes of fading skin beauty

Time spares no one. With age, cell division slows down, but the amount of dead epidermis increases. In addition, the hormonal composition of the blood changes, which disrupts the formation of collagen and elastin, which are necessary for youth and elasticity of the skin. Metabolic products are eliminated from the body more slowly, and nutrients from skincare products are absorbed much less well. All this affects the elasticity and freshness of the skin. But it is also worth remembering that these are natural processes. You can slow them down, but not cancel them. Unfortunately, modern living conditions dictate their own rules and all these processes are only getting worse every year due to external factors.

Every day you face many obstacles - lack of sleep, stress, climatic conditions, environmental pollution and other factors affect your health.

The skin only shows what is happening inside the body. If he is constantly under stress, then why are you surprised by his unhealthy complexion, pimples and early age spots?

Before resorting to expensive skincare products, get tested or at least think about what kind of lifestyle you lead. Most likely, your daily routine is filled with habits that cause your skin to age prematurely.

Why do we need old skin? Let's film!

Human skin is constantly renewed, but with age this process becomes slower. She needs help with peeling. There are many types of this procedure: some simply carefully remove dead particles, while others can help you get rid of an entire layer of skin.

• Home peeling using gentle means. It can be carried out either with creams with harsh additives or with special mittens - the main thing is not to overdo it. Aging skin recovers slowly, so any scratch on it can turn into a problem.
• Light to medium peeling. In modern clinics it is performed using ultrasound or laser. Acid solutions can also be used. In the case of hardware peeling, skin restoration occurs faster, since in addition to removing dead skin particles, ultrasound and laser stimulate blood circulation in its deep layers, after which tissue metabolism increases.
• Deep peeling. It is done using an acid solution. The process of chemical peeling removes an entire layer of cells and creates new, youthful skin. This procedure is not suitable for everyone, as it has a number of contraindications and is followed by a long rehabilitation period. The skin may crust over for a month or more.

Peeling
As for the intimate area, no peelings can be performed in this area, with the exception of the groin area, i.e. areas outside the vulva. Any scratches, cracks and even ordinary irritation in this area can lead to the activation of herpes and other troubles. The mucous membrane does not need peeling; it must renew itself. If this does not happen, the issue is again resolved with the help of injections of hyaluronic acid.

Causes of premature skin aging

Aging is a natural process. But it has already been scientifically proven that nature and genetics are only 20% involved here. The remaining 80% is related to lifestyle:

• Bad habits
  negatively affect the functioning of blood vessels. As a result, spider veins and swelling appear, and the complexion becomes dull. And remember that the skin only reflects the processes that occur deep inside, and alcohol and cigarettes negatively affect the entire body.
• Poor nutrition
  - lack of protein and vitamins, excess of fast carbohydrates, sugar and salt change the structure of collagen. This leads to dryness and sagging.
• Stress and lack of sleep
  disrupt the synthesis of corticosteroids. Because of this, hyaluronic acid and fibroblasts, which are responsible for the production of collagen and elastin, are destroyed. This is how small wrinkles appear.
• A polluted environment
  - exhaust gases from cars, emissions from factories form free radicals that destroy cells.
• Sun
  - if you don’t use Sunscreen, then wrinkles and age spots appear much faster.
• Lack of water
  - if you don't drink enough water, your skin starts to dry out. And dry dermis is most susceptible to the formation of wrinkles. By the way, washing with tap water makes the situation worse.
• Toxins
  - if waste products and toxins accumulate in the body, the skin becomes less elastic.

Signs of aging facial skin

There are several types of aging. The signs depend on them:

1. Tired - the skin becomes less elastic. A nasolabial wrinkle may appear or small facial wrinkles may appear, but there are no wrinkles as such;
2. Wrinkled - everything is clear from the name. Many small wrinkles appear;
3. Senile deformation of the face and neck - the skin sags, the oval of the face “floats”;
4. Combined – decrease in skin elasticity and appearance of wrinkles;
5. Muscular - crow's feet, nasolabial folds and folds appear on the upper and lower eyelids.

There are also several of the most common signs of aging:

1. Loss of elasticity;
2. Pigmentation:
3. Increased dryness of the dermis;
4. Appearance of grayness or yellowness;
5. Enlargement of pores in the T-zone;
6. Floating outline;
7. Drooping of the corners of the eyes and lips;
8. Changes in facial contour;
9. Formation of papillomas and warts;
10. The appearance of wrinkles.

The sooner you pay attention to these signs, the sooner you can take the necessary measures. Therefore, carefully monitor the condition of your skin.

How does skin aging occur?

Dermal aging begins at approximately 25 years of age

. For some earlier, for others a little later. 25 is average age. The complexion becomes dull, cell renewal occurs more slowly, and elasticity decreases. At this age, crow's feet, nasolabial and glabellar lines most often appear.

The second stage appears by age 35

. All those defects that have already appeared on you become even more noticeable. The dermis ceases to retain the necessary moisture, fat distribution occurs unevenly, and the production of hyaluronic acid is reduced. A network of capillaries is added to the wrinkles.

The third stage is planned by nature for approximately 50 years

. At this age, all aging processes occur with renewed vigor, as the production of female hormones decreases. At 60, the situation stabilizes a little, but everything that could happen has already happened. Age spots, deep folds, sagging skin...

After 70

The stratum corneum thickens, and the dermis, on the contrary, becomes very thin. Because of this, the skin turns yellow, like parchment.

Unfortunately, there is no way to reverse aging. But it can be slowed down. Proper care and special exercises will help you with this. You can learn about them at the updated “SmeloNET” marathon. It works like a time machine and will take you back 5-7 years - to a young and blooming face.

Facial anatomy

The face, like many other tissues, undergoes sagging processes under the influence of gravity. This process is called gravitational ptosis. I propose to consider the anatomy of the face layer by layer. It is a layer-by-layer description of facial anatomy from the perspective of the concept of Australian surgeon Brian Mendelson that will help to understand the mechanisms of aging.

Essentially, the face consists of 5 layers: skin, fatty tissue, muscles, ligaments, periosteum and facial skeleton.

1. The skin is the outermost layer. Traditionally, facial aging is associated with skin changes, so most treatments begin with skin care. Many people use creams, masks, etc. It really has a positive effect. However, up to a certain age. According to various authors, facial aging begins at the molecular level on average at the age of 30. This process occurs deep in the structures of the skin, so all rejuvenation procedures are essentially care and do not have a long-lasting effect.
2. Subcutaneous tissue. Lies under the skin and consists of adipose tissue. The thickness of the fat layer varies in different parts of the face. With age, fat sinks and accumulates in certain places, forming bags under the eyes, jowls, etc.
3. Muscles . There are 21 facial muscles on the face. With age, muscles weaken and sag, like a hammock in which fat accumulates. In this regard, working exclusively with the skin will not help achieve aesthetic rejuvenation. After all, even after performing a skin tightening, an array of muscles and adipose tissue will stretch the face and the result of skin procedures will disappear in no more than 1 year.
4. Ligaments . With the help of ligaments, the soft tissues of the face are attached to the facial skeleton and are located in certain places. Time and gravity have virtually no effect on the ligaments, so weakened muscles and hanging fat are thrown over the ligaments, forming pronounced age-related contours of the face.
5. Periosteum and facial skeleton. The bony skeleton determines the shape of the face and the very uniqueness and individuality of our faces. However, over time, the bone tissue slowly collapses, which creates the preconditions for the heavy mass of the face to slide down.

Basics of caring for aging skin

At any age and with any skin type, you need to remember three main stages in daily care:

• Cleansing
  - for aging skin, products should be as gentle as possible. Never use soap or other products that dry out your skin. All women should forget about them!
• Toning
  - many people forget about such a wonderful remedy as tonic. But in vain! After all, it is he who restores the pH balance, completes the cleansing stage and prepares the face for moisturizing. As a tonic, you can use a homemade decoction of chamomile, rosehip, rose or calendula.
• Moisturize
  - both morning and evening. Give preference to natural ingredients and remember that any product should be selected for your skin type and age.

Also, don’t forget about deep nutrition - make masks and use oils. Aging skin needs this stage the most, as it loses moisture very easily. And without it, aging occurs much faster.

Facial massage will help get rid of wrinkles. To get started, try the following exercises:

1. Removing wrinkles around the eyes:
2. Getting rid of deep wrinkles on the forehead:
3. Working with the eyebrow fold:
4. Saying goodbye to a double chin:

Get into the habit of devoting a few minutes a day to self-massage and within a week you will notice the first results.

Placental therapy

How to get rid of fading and sagging facial skin? This procedure is performed on people who have reached 40 years of age. It can be used to influence the internal biological clock. Here a systematic effect is provided that covers the entire body.

Placental therapy will help increase the body's resistance to infections and viruses, start metabolic processes, improve the condition and quality of the skin, remove pigmentation, and also provide the patient with sexuality, good mood, performance, and a surge of strength.

Anti-aging skin care with home remedies

Carrot mask.

Finely grate the carrots and mix it with the yolk of a chicken egg. Apply the mixture to a damp face and keep for 30 minutes. Then remove with a dry cotton pad.

Kefir-orange mask.

Well suited for oily dermis - moisturizes and slightly mattifies it. You will need orange juice, low-fat kefir and 1 teaspoon of starch. Mix the ingredients until you get a mushy consistency. Keep it on your face for 10-15 minutes, then wash off with warm water.

Aloe mask.

Helps in the fight against wrinkles. 1 tbsp. honey, 3 tbsp. milk powder, 1 yolk and pulp of 1 aloe branch. Mix everything, apply to the skin, and after 15 minutes, rinse with warm water. After this, you can arrange contrast washes - this is good for blood circulation and lymph flow.

But you should remember that homemade masks can only serve as an additional tool in the fight against aging skin. For complete care, you need to purchase high-quality products, but with natural ingredients.

Prevention of skin aging

Taking proper care of your health will help prevent premature aging:

1. Drink more water and don’t indulge in tea and coffee;
2. Don’t go on diets, it’s better to start introducing proper eating habits;
3. Use SPF protection. The sun is the enemy of beauty;
4. Give up bad habits (or at least limit them);
5. Try to monitor your facial expressions - if they are too active, then facial wrinkles may appear even before the age of 25. Don’t give up on living emotions - just watch their manifestations;
6. Inactive lifestyle. It is movement that provides us with long youth, activity and beauty. Don't deny yourself this one;
7. Constant lack of sleep and stress. Only in a dream can we fully relax and recover.

And remember that it is easier to prevent a problem than to get rid of it later. Therefore, take care of your skin now, and not in 15-20 years, when the situation gets worse.

Start with self-love: where to get money for beauty

“Everyone wants to look good, but only the rich can afford it.” Do you think so too, that’s why you don’t buy good cosmetics and try to give every penny to your children and grandchildren? Commendable, but when will the moment come when someone will start helping you? Oh, yes... in old age... they will bring you a glass of water...

Money for beauty

Or maybe reconsider your attitude to the situation? Will your loved ones be against it if you start taking care of your health and appearance? A beautiful, healthy and young grandmother is always a source of pride for her grandchildren. In addition, looking good means getting a boost of energy and good mood in the morning. Everyone will benefit from this!

Of course, when the flow of money becomes somewhat shallower, there will be those who are dissatisfied. But you don’t have to worry about this - they will manage just fine without your injections. Moreover, this will encourage young people to solve the problem in honest ways, for example, by finding a better job or spending their budget wisely. This practice is so useful in life!

In general, we found the money, and now we begin to rejuvenate the skin.

General recommendations

At any age, you can follow these recommendations and your face will tell you a huge “Thank you!”, because it needs care not only after 30 or 50 years.

1. Watch your diet.
   “We are what we eat” - remember this rule every time you want to splurge on another piece of candy. It’s better to replace sweets with currants, rose hips and gooseberries. These berries are rich in vitamin C and it is this that gives the antioxidant effect. Don't forget about vitamin E - it makes the skin tight and elastic. Add healthy oils to your diet - avocado, wheat germ and olive.
2. Do self-massage.
   You can use your hands or buy the massage you like. For example, gua sha makes you forget about swelling, relaxes muscles and improves blood circulation, and amber massage accelerates lymph exchange, improves complexion and facial contour.
3. Buy a dry massage brush.
   Its regular use allows you to visually lose a couple of years, get rid of the “Ring of Venus”, cleans out all impurities and speeds up metabolic processes.
4. Another miracle remedy - cupping massage
   . Accelerates lymph flow, gives amazing skin tone, erases wrinkles like an eraser, removes impurities and toxins.

5. We can't help but tell you about the roller. This is a tool for static gymnastics. Many problems arise due to poor posture. The roller helps put all the vertebrae in place, improves blood flow, eliminates withers and double chin, malocclusion and drooping eyelids. And if you buy a roller with mint, you will also improve your sleep and cope with stress more easily.

And the most important recommendation is to come to the Basic Marathon “Boldly NO” and say a firm NO to wrinkles, swollen facial contours and age spots! 3 weeks of regular classes and you won’t recognize yourself in the reflection.

Vitamins, minerals, hormones or tightening?

Another condition for maintaining youthful skin is nutrition, which includes a set of vitamins and minerals, and similar superficial care. There is no point in telling how a lack of vitamins turns out even for a young body, and at the age of “autumn” this is even more noticeable.

As for hormonal levels, it is also an important condition for maintaining youthful skin, so you should start taking care of yourself by taking hormone tests and consulting a specialist.

Modern cosmetology allows you to rejuvenate and tighten the skin without using a scalpel. For example, you can undergo a mesotherapy procedure, in which the doctor injects solutions of vitamins, bioactive substances, etc. under the skin. The result is noticeable immediately - the skin takes on a fresh look, changes color, and becomes more elastic. And this is not the only method of non-surgical rejuvenation of aging skin - today there are several dozen of them.

Vitamins for the face

But the former elasticity of the intimate area, if the muscles have weakened, can be restored with the help of vaginoplasty. This is a complex procedure for suturing muscles and other structures, eliminating sagging internal genital organs.

If you have decided to take care of yourself, but don’t yet know where to start, we invite you to our Center for Aesthetic Intimate Surgery. Our doctors will advise you and help you choose inexpensive but truly effective procedures, after which you are guaranteed to forget about your “autumn” age!
