Easy anti aging tips for removing wrinkles

A youthful skin that defies age, isn't that on the wish list of most around us? Who wouldn't want to turn back time and shed a few years off their face? Many would secretly flip through pages of fashion magazines and browse tips and tricks to look younger. A few others wouldn't mind resorting to cosmetic treatments to get that enviable younger look. Unfortunately, reality doesn't rely on shortcuts. It's about time we realised the mechanism of the human ageing process and understand its irreversible nature. Ageing is a gradual process which can be slowed down further, but never stopped. Two people of the same age may look different in terms of their age. This difference is an output of a combination of factors - genetic makeup, heredity traits and lifestyle.

It is said that a beautiful skin usually comes as an inheritance, but it doesn't really stop at that, does it? A lot also depends on how well you protect and safeguard your health. Good genes can't help you if you lead an unhealthy lifestyle.

Anti Aging Tips


Talking of genes, a recent study on ageing as reported by Daily Mail, UK, suggests the existence of a certain gene responsible for making you look older. According to the study, those who have copies of the 'ageing gene' look at least two years older than their actual biological age. Others who have just one such gene look older by about a year. Surprisingly, there exists a vast majority who may not have the gene altogether; these are the fortunate ones to retain their younger look.

It's Much More than a Wrinkle

Ageing doesn't start and stop at wrinkling. One needs to be watchful of many other signs as well. As you age you will see age spots, freckles and deep lines around all major folds on your face. Those lines at the sides of your eyes are known as crow's feet. You also have jowls which show the sagging of the jaw muscles and tissues.

According to an anti-ageing expert and leading dermatologist, Dr. Deepali Bhardwaj, "Facial ageing has many forms. There are certain factors that accelerate the pace of this process. Usually it happens over the years owing to gravitational changes and loss of skin elasticity. As we grow older our body witnesses the damage of cartilage, bones and tissues that are beneath the skin (loss of subcutaneous fat). On loss of these elements, the skin tends to lose support and starts sagging."

Identify your skin and choose products accordingly. Application matters the most. Apply products with thin consistency followed by the creamier ones. "Sunblock and moisturisers are very important.
