What are the Effects of Ageing on Skin

By Andrea Hamilton


One of the first visible indicators of aging is the development of wrinkles. Forehead wrinkles, crow's feet and giggle lines can begin to arise in your mid to late twenties if you don't take the preventive measures to take care of your skin. Applying sun blocker staying hydrated, moisturizing, exfoliating, eating a balanced diet, and avoiding cigarettes can help forestall the development of wrinkles.

Another effect of ageing is decreased skin elasticity. The tight skin on your face will begin drooping and drooping. The skin becomes droopy because of the effects of gravity on your less firm skin. While this will make your face look skinnier, research indicates that older populations that are chubbier or fat look younger than those who are thin. Application of cream for wrinkles and anti-aging moisturizers can promote skin hydration and elasticity.

Dry and itchy skin are also caused by aging. Because of the reduced oils, the skin becomes drier and itchier among older adults. It is usually recommended that those with dry skin, shower or bathe in lukewarm water as hot water can further dry out the skin.

The physical appearance of the skin is altered as it ages. Ulcerations, benign growths and bruises become more common as we grow older. This occurs as the skin has been exposed to dangerous polluntants from the environment and biologically, blood vessel walls become thinner as we age.

Regular sun exposure speeds up the ageing effect on your skin. The UV rays of the sun promote burnt and dry skin. Additionally it's a predisposing factor for skin cancer. You have to therefore wear suntan lotion when out.

There isn't any absolute system to stop the the natural process of getting older, but there are simple and effective ways we can do to forestall the appearance of the visible indicators of skin ageing.
