There are a variety of signs of ageing that we see occur as the years march along that can include sun damage, dry, scaly skin, dark age spots, fine lines, wrinkles, mottled skin tone, enlarged pores, sagging facial skin, ruddy skin texture, loss of skin elasticity and a decrease in the skin's healing abilities.
How many times have you reached out for that miracle face lift in a jar only to be disappointed that the truth is a bit more complicated.
Although there are no cures for ageing, it is possible to delay or mask some of the effects of ageing. We all want healthy skin as it keeps us looking younger for longer. And one way to ensure this is by following an effective skin rejuvenation regime. Although the market is saturated with products that claim to banish wrinkles forever, firm sagging skin and make those age spots disappear, truth is, there's only a handful of anti-aging treatments that have been independently clinically proven to be effective.
Start your skin rejuvenation regime with clinically proven skin care treatments. For example, some of the more popular favorites are Vitamin A (better known as retinol), glycolic acid (an alpha hydroxy acid, AHA), Vitamin C Ester, and Vitamin K. By boosting levels of these vitamins, it is claimed oxidative damage would be reduced and ageing slowed. The treatments can accomplish a great deal in rejuvenating aging skin including exfoliating dead skin cells, stimulating skin cell repair, encouraging new skin cell growth, improving fine lines and wrinkles, stimulating collagen production, improving skin tone and texture, decreasing enlarged pores and can actually significantly improve acne or outbreaks of blemishes.
Layering different anti-ageing treatments is also an important strategy to use if you want to achieve significant results. Adding a powerful antioxidant such as a stable form of Vitamin C Ester will help protect the skin from further damage and improve the skin's healing ability. A 'Super' Vitamin K product is well known for improving dark circles under the eyes and is helpful is reducing the redness from broken capillaries that can give the skin a red appearance.
While many will seek a cure in the numerous anti-ageing creams available on the market, others will try anti-ageing procedures such as botox, chemical peels or dermabrasion to achieve that youthful appearance. There are plenty of combinations for skin care treatments that can be tailored to address individuals' own ageing skin care needs, so don't be afraid to experiment a little bit to find the best combination that works for you.
