Wrinkles... Philosophers consider them to be an honest seal of time, specialists in physiognomy are able to determine the character by wrinkles and even predict fate. Wrinkles can add wisdom and authority to a man's face - within reasonable limits, of course. But women have never been made more beautiful by wrinkles, at any age.

People have been waging war on wrinkles for centuries. The exotic methods used by our great-grandmothers have been replaced by achievements modern science. Now, in addition to plastic surgery, cosmetologists have at their disposal enough non-surgical methods that allow you to smooth out any wrinkle without a trace.

Wrinkles - what are they?

Cosmetologists classify wrinkles according to their depth and causes.

Depth:

Surface("epidermal") wrinkles affecting the surface layer of the skin - the epidermis. These are small wrinkles, in some cases looking like a "mesh". If there are many epidermal wrinkles, the skin takes on the appearance of parchment. The most common cause of superficial wrinkles is dehydration of the skin. Also, their appearance is facilitated by thickening of the stratum corneum of the epidermis, caused by a slowdown in the process of exfoliation of the scales of the stratum corneum and the rate of renewal of its cells.
Medium deep(“dermal”) wrinkles affect middle layer skin - dermis, are the result of further development and deepening of superficial wrinkles. Their appearance is primarily due to damage to collagen fibers by free radicals, slowing down its synthesis by fibroblasts.
deep wrinkles- affect not only all layers of the skin, but subcutaneous fat also takes part in their formation. First of all, deep wrinkles appear in the area of ​​\u200b\u200bnatural skin folds, for example, nasolabial folds. Big role in their occurrence, gravitational ptosis of facial tissues plays when, under the influence of gravity against the background of a weakening of muscle tone, they descend.

The predisposition to the formation of deep wrinkles in a certain area in a large area is genetically determined, depends on individual characteristics facial structure. However, the degree of their manifestation depends on the impact of the same negative factors that affect the appearance of superficial and medium-deep wrinkles.

For the main reasons for the appearance:

dynamic wrinkles appear, first of all, due to the regular contraction of facial muscles. They are also called "mimic". Facial expressions are a reflection of our emotions, facial movements are produced by the muscles of the face of any person, but each of us has features, including characteristic facial expressions. For example, many of us have a habit of often raising one eyebrow, frowning, squinting. Moreover, people with such habits regularly grimace unconsciously, without noticing it. In those areas where such increased muscle activity is noted, the skin folds that occur during mimic movements cease to fully straighten by the age of 20 - dynamic wrinkles form. Most often, the first mimic wrinkles appear on the forehead. A little later - at the outer corners of the eyes. Around the age of 30, wrinkles form on the upper eyelids.

(age, gravity). As a rule, they appear after 40 years. Unlike dynamic wrinkles, static wrinkles occur regardless of the work of mimic muscles. Their occurrence is due to the processes of skin aging, both natural, age-related aging, and "artificial", caused by the effects of smoking, exposure to ultraviolet radiation and other negative factors. external environment. With skin aging, blood circulation slows down in it, the content of collagen, elastin, hyaluronic acid decreases, which leads to a decrease in its elasticity, it becomes flabby. Loses its tone and mimic muscles. Under the influence of gravity, the tissues of the face descend. Moreover, they fall unevenly, which leads to the appearance of static (gravitational, i.e. arising under the action of gravity) wrinkles. Posture disorders, incorrect posture during sleep, and other factors can also provoke their appearance.

Also wrinkles can be combined- having signs of both static and dynamic.

Wrinkle Correction Methods

• Contour plastic- the method is almost universal, using gels with different densities, it can be used to get rid of both superficial and deep wrinkles.
• Botox And Dysport- their introduction is the main method of dealing with dynamic wrinkles. Temporarily suppressing the activity of facial muscles, they act on the cause of their occurrence.
• RF lifting- provides the effect of "lifting", the skin area is reduced, which gives a particularly pronounced age-related wrinkles of the neck and chin.
• Superficial peels- accelerating the processes of renewal of epidermal cells, they are the prevention of the appearance of wrinkles. When applied, the microrelief of the skin is leveled, fine wrinkles disappear.
• Median peels operate deeper. With their help, you can remove medium-deep wrinkles, while simultaneously solving many other aesthetic problems.
• LPG massage allows you to improve the blood supply to the tissues of the face, restore the tone of its muscles (which is especially important for gravitational wrinkles), activate the "cells of youth" - fibroblasts, increase their production of collagen and elastin.
• Biorevitalization. Loss of skin moisture is the first factor provoking wrinkles. With it, you can not only prevent the appearance of wrinkles, but also eliminate existing superficial wrinkles.
• Biocybernetic Therapy Beautitek Premium - "lifting" effect, provided by the normalization of facial muscle tone, is visible immediately after the procedure. In addition, under the influence of microcurrents, microcirculation in soft tissues improves, and the potential of fibroblasts is restored.
• Mesotherapy allows you to enter into the skin those substances that it needs. Not being a method of "treatment" of wrinkles, it allows for their effective prevention. Using this method, the cosmetologist can select the composition of the drug individually, introduce exactly those substances that are necessary in a particular case.
• Threadlifting with 3D mesothreads- the introduction of absorbable threads under the skin provides the effect of a "facelift" and smoothing wrinkles due to the creation of an internal "framework" that supports the skin.

How to slow down the appearance of wrinkles?

The main causes of wrinkles are:

• natural aging;
• skin aging caused by exposure to ultraviolet radiation and other external factors;
• skin dehydration;
• excessive activity of the mimic muscles of the face;
• improper skin care (especially for dry);
• smoking, other bad habits;
• structural features of the face (for example, malocclusion can contribute to the formation of nasolabial folds and other wrinkles).

Prevention methods should be aimed at eliminating or reducing the impact of these factors.

Skin care. Home care products will not be able to give the same effect as professional care using Dermalogica or Natura Bisse, but they can be used daily, and this is very important. Cosmetics should be selected depending on skin type, age, individual tolerance. Particular attention should be paid to its moisturizing effect.

Moisturizing. The impact of various external and internal factors leads to dehydration of the skin, including when taking diuretic drugs, frequent water procedures without subsequent moisturizing of the skin. Moisturizing components in cosmetics are usually hyaluronic acid and its derivatives, elastin and collagen hydrolysates, ceramides, extracts of algae, aloe and other plants, essential oils, unsaturated fatty acids (oleic, linoleic, linolenic).

Stimulation. Most of the active ingredients in home care cosmetics do not penetrate deeper than the stratum corneum of the epidermis. But now there are preparations whose components penetrate deeper, to the level of living cells. These substances are able to influence their production of collagen and elastin. These components include active forms of vitamin C, retinol, phytoestrogens, fruit acids, and certain minerals such as copper and iron.

Skin protection. Protect your skin from harmful effects ultraviolet rays, use sunscreen, and in the cold season - protect it from the effects of wind and cold.

Gymnastics for facial muscles. Before doing it, consult a beautician. On the one hand, such training strengthens the muscles of the face, improves blood circulation to the skin, which is useful for the prevention of wrinkles. On the other hand, there are wrinkles that arise as a result of facial movements. With the wrong selection of a set of exercises and a tendency to the appearance of dynamic wrinkles, the effect of gymnastics may be the opposite of what is expected.

Relaxation. Notice how tense your face is when you are under stress. Such prolonged tension is not useful, with it blood circulation does not improve, but on the contrary, blood stagnation occurs, tissue nutrition worsens. Learn to relax. Not only spa treatments provide a relaxing effect. The effect is also given by the development of psychological relaxation techniques, for example, from the arsenal of auto-training or yoga. Regular training to relax the muscles of the face leads to the fact that their tone is normalized, the moment of appearance of dynamic wrinkles moves away. In addition, the number of nerve impulses from tense muscles to the brain decreases, which, in turn, has a positive effect on the nervous system as a whole.

Smoking etc. With age, all vices and bad habits are imprinted on the face. Therefore, the sooner you begin to treat your body sensibly and with love, the more chances you have to preserve youthful skin.

A person's face is an open book of his life. You look at one and see how joyful the days were, and the other tells about the hardships experienced. Wrinkles become carriers of information. The more of them near the eyes, on the forehead, the more reasons to think about what went wrong in a person’s life. Even in the photo, wrinkles on the face look unattractive, but in real life their presence upsets, spoils the mood, and leads to nervous breakdowns. After all, we really want to prolong youth and push back the formation of deep folds or mesh on the forehead near the eyes, and for this we will have to study the causes of their appearance, methods of treatment and think about early prevention.

Causes

No matter how much you want to stay young longer, the grooves on your face appear here and there. The aging process is inevitable, it will come to everyone anyway. But for some, already after 20, a network of wrinkles near the eyes is visible on the face, while others remain youthful and pretty even at 50. The factors that provide negative impact on the processes occurring with the skin. The formation of longitudinal and transverse folds is influenced by many reasons:

Age. Over the years, the production of elastin decreases, the structure deteriorates significantly skin. They become tired, lose elasticity, tone, but acquire a yellowish tint and many wrinkles, which are barely noticeable at first, and then become deeper.

Lifestyle. By leading an unhealthy lifestyle, a person risks his health. The first imprint of trouble in the body is superimposed on the skin. The reason for its withering is the lack of walks on fresh air, smoking, constant lack of sleep, nervous shocks, alcohol consumption in large quantities, fatigue.

Excessive facial expressions. There are people who frown, expressing surprise, displeasure, squint when examining objects. The result of this behavior is the appearance of early age mimic wrinkles near the eyes, on the forehead.

Diseases. Not all, but many diseases of the gastrointestinal tract affect the condition of the skin. This also includes gynecological diseases, disorders of the central nervous system and malfunctions of the endocrine system. Skin diseases (furunculosis) become especially dangerous for the skin.

Excessive sun exposure. UV rays have a negative effect on collagen. It is gradually destroyed, the elasticity of the upper layer of the dermis decreases.

diets. An improperly selected diet, a restriction in useful products causes a deficiency of the protein needed by the skin. The production of elastin and collagen immediately decreases, which leads to changes in the face.

Wrong care. The choice of cosmetics plays an important role. Lack of nutrients in the skin leads to its withering, aging.

Types of wrinkles

What is called in one word wrinkles, looks completely different. You can consider their classification, delimiting the types and types of wrinkles.

By place of education can be on different parts of the face, as can be seen in the photo:

• at the eyes;
• on the forehead;
• at the wings of the nose;
• on the cheeks;
• between the eyebrows;
• on the chin;
• on the neck, in the décolleté area;
• at the mouth.

By depth:

• superficial - appear early with a lack of nutrition for the skin;
• deep - folds reach the hypodermis, occur at different ages;
• medium-deep - develop in the absence of a fight against superficial ones, reach the middle layers of the skin.

According to the nature of the manifestation:

• statistical - noticeable all the time;
• dynamic - appear only with the manifestation of muscle activity.

Due to education:

• mimic - from excessive muscle work;
• gravitational - due to sagging skin (often with a sharp weight loss);
• age - natural during aging of the body.

6. Lack of physical activity- without any exercise muscles become weak. Regular exercise will help tighten muscles, skin, activate metabolic processes in the body.

5. Don't start using anti-aging creams if they are meant for older women. This weakens the function of the body, which is responsible for combating skin aging. By nourishing the skin with stronger creams, you saturate it with substances that, instead of being useful in certain age have quite the opposite effect. Choose cosmetics according to your age.

6. Try to be less nervous, let alone show anger. Such strong emotions can destroy the structure of the cells that are responsible for the condition of our skin. Exactly these negative emotions accelerate the aging process of the skin and prevent its natural protection from adverse external factors.
7. Do not forget about herbs and masks based on natural ingredients. Their use can help the body increase the production of collagen and other substances that are responsible for youthful skin. Many herbs saturate the skin with nutrients, allowing it to recover faster and maintain its elasticity longer.

How to deal with fine wrinkles

Skin aging and a decrease in its elasticity can be determined by the appearance of the first shallow wrinkles. It is at this point that you should start maintaining youthful skin as the aging process accelerated. Use exactly folk remedies able to stop it faster, much easier and safer and keep skin youthful. To remove mimic wrinkles around the mouth and eyes, prepare a mask with egg yolk. Take 2 tbsp. l. oatmeal, 2 tsp sunflower oil, egg yolk. Mix everything thoroughly and immediately apply to wrinkles. If the mask remains, put it in the refrigerator. In a month, the result will not keep you waiting. To combat forehead wrinkles, take 1 potato, 1 tbsp. l. cream, 1 tbsp. l. yeast. Grate potatoes, add yeast and cream, stir. Spread the mixture on the bag and apply to the forehead for 25 minutes. To combat the appearance of wrinkles around the mouth, mix 2 tsp. grape (or carrot) juice, 2 tsp. sour cream, 2 pieces of grapefruit. Apply the mask around your mouth. Repeat the procedure 3 times a week.

How to stop deep wrinkles

To combat the appearance of deep wrinkles or to eliminate them if they have already appeared, you can first use the most effective tool, namely vitamin E. It helps to eliminate even the oldest wrinkles, and prevent the appearance of new ones. Vitamin E is responsible for the youthfulness of our skin, and it is its lack in the body that primarily leads to fluid loss and the appearance of wrinkles. In order to eliminate them, an oil solution of vitamin E should be applied to wrinkles, and to prevent their appearance on the area around the eyes, forehead and corners of the lips. Next in effectiveness is olive oil, which is able to smooth the skin, cleanse, moisturize and provide the nutrition it needs.

The oil must be applied every evening for 30 minutes on the skin where wrinkles have appeared or where you do not want them to appear. Aloe juice also helps fight wrinkles. It was aloe vera that was very popular in ancient Greece, and ancient Egypt in the care of the skin of Egyptian beauties. In addition to fighting wrinkles, aloe helps fight a variety of skin lesions. It is deservedly called the plant of immortality to this day. Its juice is able to quickly smooth out even very old wrinkles. To do this, it will be enough to apply it on the skin where wrinkles have appeared. If you mix 1 tbsp. l. dry chamomile flowers with 2 cups of water and boil for 10 minutes, you will get a wonderful infusion that will help give your skin a healthy look. And by applying gauze soaked in it to your face, you can eventually get rid of the deep wrinkles that have appeared in you in recent years, and prevent the appearance of new ones for many years. After the compress, be sure to wash with cold water and apply a nourishing cream. No less useful in the fight against deep wrinkles and maintaining youthful skin will be an infusion of vodka on lemon. To prepare it, take 1 fairly large lemon and pour 1 glass of vodka. Insist 10 days. Then soak cotton wool in the infusion and apply it where there are wrinkles or on any area of ​​the face. In the first case, it will help get rid of wrinkles, and in the second case, it will keep the skin toned and elastic.

4 brilliant rules for maintaining youthful skin

1. The most important thing for your skin to always be taut and not wrinkle so quickly is to maintain a stable weight. Here the main thing will be neither losing weight to incomprehensible standards, but namely maintaining a stable weight, whatever it may be. Weight directly affects the condition of your skin, because its constant changes stretch the skin, then cause it to narrow, and over time, it begins to lose elasticity, which leads to the appearance of a huge number of wrinkles. Of course, it is best to correct weight and support it all the time. Excess weight quite negatively affects the state of health, so you just need to reduce the amount of food you eat, find positive emotions for yourself in life, and your weight will stabilize, and no diets, get rid of this stress.
2. Equally important will be proper nutrition, which should include vegetables and fruits. They help the natural cleansing of the body from various toxins and excess substances. Cleanliness of the intestines and stomach allows the skin to look radiant and young at any age.
3. Do not forget about a good mood, friendliness and kindness. The positive emotions that you give to others return to you, causing peace of mind and optimism, and after all, the hormones of joy - endorphins, allow you to increase the production of a substance such as collagen, which is responsible for maintaining the elasticity of our skin.
4. And in conclusion, no less important in the struggle for the preservation of youth will be sports. It doesn't matter what you choose here. The main thing is that they bring you pleasure, and you can do them regularly, several times a week. Sports that bring real pleasure and are carried out regularly can make you 5 years younger in six months.

If you always stay in a good mood, be friendly, find time to play sports, monitor your weight, do not forget about the secrets of folk remedies, you can stop aging and keep skin youthful for many years, always remaining young and beautiful.

In this article, only scientifically - without lies and advertising, only the truth and once again the truth about how to warn mimic facial wrinkles

How to warn mimic facial wrinkles

Good afternoon. Recently, I have noticed more and more often that readers are more concerned about the aging of their facial skin than the aging of the whole organism. This, of course, cannot but upset, since I understand that external beauty is not health. But internal health often coexists with external beauty. Anyway. Ah, those women. I am writing an article specifically for them.

Today, there are a lot of advertisements for all sorts of miracle skin rejuvenation products. What is not there. And antioxidants, and even snake venom. And most importantly, it hits the heart. Who wouldn't want to rejuvenate if the producers magic remedies repeatedly emphasize that the remedy consists only of NATURAL INGREDIENTS or contains ANTIOXIDANTS. Mass trust in everything natural goes sideways to us. Although science does not at all confirm that NATURAL is better than artificial. And often the opposite. And antioxidants in general are often harmful and can threaten life extension. Antioxidants neutralize free radicals. And free radicals are only harmful when there are too many or too few of them. And if the content of free radicals is normal, then antioxidants can only do harm.

While all pharmaceutical companies (manufacturers of miracle products for skin rejuvenation) know how to become young and turn back the clock, strangely enough, scientists still do not know how to do this. Science has learned how to stop the progress of aging. But it is not yet possible to turn it back for the whole organism as a whole. So the only true strategy is to warn mimic facial wrinkles, and not fight with those that have already appeared.

Yes, no doubt, there are means to obtain temporary effects. But this is not rejuvenation in the truest sense of the word, but a disguise. Real skin rejuvenation can be obtained if you get a technology that allows you to restore damaged skin. collagen fibers skin. Collagen fibers are damaged due to the processes of glycation in the body, as well as as a result of photo aging from sunlight. As a result of glycation, inflammation occurs and cross-links occur in collagen fibers. So far we are not able to destroy these crosslinks. But we know how to make sure that they do not occur, or arise extremely slowly - in a word, we know how to slow down the rate of aging, but we do not know how to reverse it. Despite this, nanotechnologies should soon appear that allow destroying such crosslinks.

How to prevent facial wrinkles

Let's look at what science offers today to prolong the youthfulness of our skin:

Protect your skin from the sun

Protect your face from the sun to avoid photo aging of your skin.

Already known fact- photo skin aging (more details here). Under the influence of ultraviolet rays, the collagen in our skin is damaged much faster. Free radicals accumulate in the skin, and their concentration exceeds the norm. There are premature mimic facial wrinkles, age spots, etc. Therefore, it is necessary to avoid exposure to the sun on the skin, such as tanning on the beach. And to compensate for the beneficial effects of sunburn, you need to consume vitamin D daily. There are many scientific studies proving the role of ultraviolet radiation from sunlight in photo skin aging. Here are links to just a few of those studies:

• www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10832052

How can you protect your skin from the harmful effects of solar radiation? Necessary avoid sunburn. In addition, you need to use daily cream(or spray, lotion) containing protection from the sun's ultraviolet radiation (UV protection) . Such creams contain sun filters - SPF. Sun Protection Factor (SPF) is a sun protection factor for absorbing ultraviolet rays. The degree of SPF protection is always indicated on the packaging. From 5 to 100. You need to choose SPF from 45 to 100. You can buy such creams in stores. But readers often ask for cream recommendations. - links where you can buy them online:

1. Alba Botanica, Emollient Sunscreen, Sports, SPF 45, 4 oz (113 g)
2. Alba Botanica, Natural Very Emollient Sunscreen, Pure Lavender, SPF 45, Pure Lavender, 4 oz (113 g)
3. Alba Botanica, Softening sunscreen, SPF 45, Pure Lavender, 1 oz (28 g)

In addition, it is necessary drink coffee regularly(at least 2 cups and no more than 4 cups per day). We have repeatedly written about the benefits of coffee for health and life extension (for example, “The myth that coffee is harmful“). But now there is more scientific evidence that coffee polyphenols, including chlorogenic acid, protect the skin from age spots as a result of photoaging. Here is a link to scientific data on the effectiveness of coffee:

• www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25041334

And finally, a good example of how the sun causes wrinkles.

This is a trucker.
Left side constantly in the sun

Forbid yourself juices, fried foods, sweets, etc.

Proper nutrition prevents premature mimic facial wrinkles

Diet is one of the most powerful factors influencing skin aging (along with smoking and sun exposure). Improper nutrition high in sugar causes protein glycation, and as a result, the rapid appearance of wrinkles and roughness. Before the age of 30, the main factor in skin aging is photoaging due to solar radiation, and the glycation process has little effect on skin aging. But after 30 years - this process comes to the forefront. Read more about protein glycation at the following link. And here are links to scientific studies confirming the role of nutrition and protein glycation in skin aging processes:

• www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24361253
• www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25600848
• www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24906676
• www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24831697
• www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25436743
• www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24646271

Basic principles proper nutrition for a noticeable decrease in the intensity of protein glycation:

• Avoid sugary drinks and fruit and vegetable juices.
• Also, to slow down the rate of protein glycation, you should drastically reduce the consumption of fast sugars and foods with a high glycemic index (sweets, honey, many types of fruits, flour products, etc.).
• Completely eliminate heat-treated foods at temperatures above 120 degrees Celsius from your diet (fried and baked, bread, french fries, chips, fried potatoes, as well as any kind of barbecue - any cinder and soot).
• Follow a healthy diet - an example of a healthy diet to slow down the human aging process.
• Eliminate all dairy products except butter.

Use mono-vitamins and medicines.

Vitamin B1 (thiamine) (mono - not in complexes, but separately) warns mimic facial wrinkles

Some vitamins (not in vitamin complexes, but separately) have scientifically proven properties to block protein glycation, preventing skin aging.

Next will be short list vitamins and drugs that effectively block protein glycation. The names of these tools are in blue font. To find out how, when and how much to use vitamins and medicines, click on the blue names, and a page with a description of a particular remedy will open:

• Vitamin B1 (thiamine) - not to be confused with benfotiamine. Daily in the morning before breakfast 300 mg of thiamine. No other vitamins should be taken with thiamine in the morning. Otherwise, it will collapse and there will be no effect. That is why it is useless to use it in vitamin complexes. The same applies to other vitamins. Be careful. Some people are allergic to vitamin B1.
• Vitamin B6 and magnesium. All this in the preparation Magnesium B6. 25 mg of vitamin B6 in the evening before dinner. Dosage must not be exceeded. Vitamin B6 is the most powerful agent (three times more powerful than metformin) for blocking glycation.
• Vitamin D3. Vitamin D3 is one of the most powerful anti-aging drugs. Link >> www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24160273 and www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3583884/
• Note: In funds mass media you can often find advertisements for antioxidants that can defeat mimic facial wrinkles. Antioxidants may protect the skin a little from sun exposure, but they are powerless in combating glycation. Advanced glycation end products (namely, methylglyoxal and glyoxal) can be produced from glucose without going through the full cycle of the Maillard reaction. This transformation occurs with the participation of oxygen. And that is why antioxidants with tablets will not be able to block the formation of such end products of glycation. That's why treatment of wrinkles with antioxidants against glycation is not effective. They only help with photoaging..

If you are over 40 years old, then you should also add the following medicines in addition to the above funds:

• Metformin. It makes sense to use metformin starting only from the age of 30. Dosage - 1-2 tablets of 500 mg per day after meals. If after taking metformin there is weakness, drowsiness, then you should immediately eat, and you should not use metformin anymore. It happens sometimes. But in most cases, metformin is well tolerated and has been proven to prolong life and reduce mortality in humans. 24 hours before taking Metformin and within 24 hours after taking it, you can not drink alcohol - it is very dangerous, sometimes even fatal !!! Metformin should not be used in renal failure - in other cases it is safe. Link >>
• Doxycycline. An antibiotic with a scientifically proven ability to prolong life, including blocking the processes of protein glycation. Take 40-50 mg capsule for 1 month. Then take a 30 day break. While taking doxycycline, you can not sunbathe - the threat of age spots on the skin. Link >>
• Nicotinamide riboside does not affect protein glycation, but strongly inhibits the aging process by maintaining the level of NAD +

Quit smoking and don't smoke passively.

Smoking causes mimic facial wrinkles

Smoking has been scientifically proven to cause rapid skin aging and mimic facial wrinkles. If you don’t believe me, then read scientific studies that compare both ordinary people and twins - smokers with non-smokers:

• www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25376107
• www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25569867
• www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23924651
• www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24910280
• www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24601896

Sleep at least 7-8 hours a day.

Sleep disturbance causes mimic facial wrinkles

Mimic facial wrinkles arise due to the destruction of collagen fibers in the skin under the influence of protein glycation and photoaging from the sun. With age, the rate of synthesis of new collagen fibers also slows down. In addition, collagen synthesis mainly occurs when we sleep. That's why, depriving ourselves of sleep, we get wrinkles and brittle hair. Learn more about the effects of sleep deprivation.

Protect your skin from free radicals.

• Household soot (smoking, smoke)
• Ultraviolet rays with a wavelength of 100-400 nm (including from artificial tanning devices)
• Benz(a)pyrene
• Carcinogen Benzene
• Bitumens and bitumen oxides (road repair work)
• Carpentry (IARC)
• Coal and petroleum tars, pitches and their sublimates
• 2-Naphthylamine
• 2, 3, 7, 8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-para-dioxin (most commonly referred to as Dioxin)

Do aerobic exercise

Aerobic species physical culture- this is a long run, swimming, cycling, aqua aerobics, etc.

Long run, long swim, aqua aerobics delay mimic facial wrinkles

Inflammatory processes in the skin destroy collagen fibers and cause mimic facial wrinkles. Research has shown that aerobic sports reduce the manifestation of inflammatory markers:

• www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24287006

Women over 40, use HRT

Hormone replacement therapy prevents mimic facial wrinkles

During menopause, the synthesis of female hormones - estrogen - is sharply reduced, which leads to the rapid progress of a woman's aging. These processes are strongly reflected in the skin. The skin loses its elasticity and becomes flabby, dry and thin. It has been scientifically proven that use of estrogen hormones After menopause, it allows you to increase the content of collagen in the skin, making it thicker and more elastic. Signs of senile dry skin disappear:

• www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23604918

HRT (hormone replacement therapy) has been scientifically proven to prevent and reduce dry hair and some of the signs of skin aging. Increases skin thickness by 10-20%. The skin becomes less rough, less dry:

• www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8762222
• skin care after menopause: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24494002

Above, the means that allow to slow down the rate of skin aging itself were considered. But what to do when mimic facial wrinkles already appeared? Science does not yet know effective and affordable methods for a wide range of people to reverse skin aging. We only know how to prevent wrinkles. But if mimic facial wrinkles have already arisen, all is not lost. There are temporary measures that allow you to visually improve the condition of the skin and even temporarily!!! rejuvenate her. So "Temporary skin care products"

Drink plenty of pure water and moisturize your skin

Moisture reduces mimic facial wrinkles

With the onset of menopause in the body of a woman, the production of the hormone estrogen decreases. The skin becomes dry and thin, because it does not retain moisture well. This skin needs to be moisturized. An excellent, scientifically proven remedy for moisturizing such skin is coconut oil:

• www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15724344

Moisturizing creams certainly help, but not as much as drinking enough clean drinking water.

Use external interventions.

Peeling temporarily removes mimic facial wrinkles

The ways in this section to influence the appearance of the skin are scientifically proven and safe. Their effectiveness and safety have been confirmed in a number of studies. Here are some of them:

• www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25569867
• www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/14502050

1. Chemical peeling (including alpha and beta hydroxy acids) of the skin of the face and neck stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin in the skin, which temporarily makes the skin more elastic and youthful. By the way, men usually look younger women because they shave all the time. Shaving itself is a constant peeling.
2. Botulinum toxin injections (eg, botulinum toxin type A and type B).

There is no need in this article to give a detailed description of these methods, since there is enough information about them on the Internet.

Include salads daily in your diet:

• Raw carrots, cabbage, olive oil.
• Tomatoes, cucumbers, olive oil, bell pepper, celery.

wrinkles

Young healthy skin is elastic, smooth, tightly stretched. With age, it turns yellow, becomes dry, rough, loses its elasticity, wrinkles, furrows and folds appear on it.

The formation of wrinkles occurs gradually. First, wrinkles appear on the forehead, then in the direction from the nose to the chin, at the outer corners of the eyes, and finally on the neck, bridge of the nose, chin and upper lip. Wrinkles can be observed in humans different ages even in young people.

Causes of wrinkles

Mimic wrinkles. Wrinkles cause various facial habits: wrinkling of the forehead, squinting of the eyes (usually in the sun); the manner of laughing also contributes to the formation of wrinkles; in some individuals, laughter causes a sharp contraction of all facial muscles.

Premature appearance of wrinkles is also observed with the wrong position of the head during sleep. Many sleep with pillows high under their heads; the head at the same time leans on the chest, and wrinkles form on the neck and chin.

Wrinkles can also appear with an intensive decrease in body weight. The stretched skin cannot quickly shrink, it sags, becomes covered with wrinkles.

Past illnesses. Infectious, chronic diseases, disorders of the nervous and endocrine systems, female, gastrointestinal diseases weaken the body's resistance, reduce skin elasticity, and it begins to wrinkle.

Natural factors for the appearance of wrinkles. A significant role in the development of wrinkles in young people is played by various external influences: prolonged exposure to the sun and wind, temperature fluctuations in the air, its excessive dryness and humidity; prolonged stay in stuffy, smoky rooms (passive smoking).

Abuse of decorative cosmetics. Many girls with good skin abuse frequent washing and especially powdering their faces. And frequent use of powder dries out the skin and creates conditions for the formation of wrinkles.

Age factor in the appearance of wrinkles. Already in the 3rd decade of life, wrinkles are the result of the onset of age-related fading of the skin. Between the ages of 30 and 40, the number of wrinkles increases significantly and reaches a maximum by the age of 55-60. The skin of the elderly loses its density and elasticity; due to thinning of the subcutaneous adipose tissue, degeneration and death of elastic fibers, it stretches and falls; at the same time, the zygomatic bones protrude sharply, the nasolabial folds are clearly identified, the volume of the chin, neck, and occiput increases.

How to prevent wrinkles

In order to prevent the appearance of wrinkles, you need to combine a set of exercises for facial muscles with skin care procedures:

Getting rid of bad facial habits. When double chin, fine loose skin and wrinkles on the neck, it is recommended to get rid of the bad habit of pressing the chin to the chest. It is much more useful, and even more beautiful, to keep the head slightly raised. During sleep, the face should rest freely on the pillow, in no case should one burrow into it. Of great importance is the condition of the teeth and timely prosthetics. The absence of teeth not only leads to abnormal digestion, but also inevitably changes the shape of the face: the cheeks sink, deep folds and furrows form.

The use of compresses (poultices). For their preparation, they are folded into a strip (20-25 cm) small towel or a napkin, lower it into hot water, wring it out and put it on the face. The middle of the compress covers the chin from below, and the ends are applied to the cheeks, forehead and nose (only the mouth and nostrils are free). The poultice should be kept on the face for 2-3 minutes, then removed and wiped or poured over the face with cold water.

Application of rubdown. Wipe the face with a cold saline solution (1/2 teaspoon of salt per 1 glass of water). For very dry skin, instead of salt, use a solution of tannin (1/2 teaspoon of tannin per 1 glass of water).

The use of ointments against the appearance of wrinkles. Before going to bed, it is useful to lubricate the face with a cream or ointment. Ordinary table salt is added to the ointment - 1/2 tsp. finely crushed salt rubbed with 1 jar of cream. Such a cream is applied to the face, especially to wrinkles, and it is driven in with the ends of the fingers for 2-3 minutes. In the morning, it is advisable to rinse your face with cool water, lubricate it with cream and powder. You should not go out without smearing your face with cream.

Protection from direct sunlight. People with emerging wrinkles should avoid direct sunlight; preferable air baths. Before sunbathing, be sure to lubricate your face with cream.

Self-massage against wrinkles. When wrinkles appear, lightly tap the skin of the face with your fingertips daily for 5 minutes. This improves blood circulation in the skin and strengthens it.

Applying masks. They prevent the formation of wrinkles and have an exceptionally beneficial effect on the skin.

• Protein-lemon. Beat the egg white into foam, add the juice from 1/2 lemon and salt on the tip of a knife to it; stir the whole mixture well.
• Yolk-oily. Egg yolk mix with 1/2 tsp. camphor or castor oil.

• Egg and oatmeal. To whipped egg white or add 1 tsp to the yolk. honey and 1 tbsp. l. oatmeal.
• Yolk-honey. Grind the egg yolk with 1/2 tsp. honey and 1 tsp. glycerin.
• Yeast. Dilute 20-25 g of yeast with milk or vegetable oil until sour cream is thick.
• Yeast sour. Dilute 25 g of yeast with water to the density of sour cream and let stand until fermentation.

These masks can be alternated with masks recommended for sagging skin. Before applying the mask, the face must be washed or wiped. The duration of the use of masks is 15-20 minutes. All masks, except yeast, can be left overnight. Masks containing oils are removed with a damp swab, the rest are washed off with water.

Healthy lifestyle. Proper facial skin care and prevention is not enough to successfully eliminate wrinkles. Need to improve general condition health; establish a restorative regime, follow a certain diet, engage in physical education and gymnastics of the whole body and face.

A healthy lifestyle, proper skin care, control of facial expressions and good mood help to delay the appearance of wrinkles. People who are self-possessed, balanced, benevolent keep smooth skin longer than bilious, always dissatisfied people.

And everyone was sure that a person should live at least 150 years or more.

In the middle of the 20th century, scientists went far and transplanted the sex glands from monkeys to people, expecting that animal hormones would rejuvenate them, but this did not allow them to avoid old age, moreover, some scientists associate the spread of HIV among mankind with this fact.

In our time, they are trying to solve this problem at the molecular and genetic level, they believe that the future in eternal youth belongs to stem cells, but this theory has not been confirmed either, from their use on this moment more risk to life and health than effect rejuvenation.

How does skin aging and wrinkles occur?

With age and under the influence of negative factors, various changes occur in the skin and in the subcutaneous fat layer, which lead to skin flabbiness and the formation of wrinkles. The first changes appear already by the age of 25. The trigger mechanism of skin aging is a violation of blood circulation and nutrition of the skin itself, the subcutaneous fat layer and muscles.

In order to understand how the skin ages, you need to understand how it works.

Skin structure

The skin is an organ with a huge area. Its main function is a protective function for the whole organism from the effects of the environment and infections. The skin is also involved in the exchange of heat and water.

The skin often displays many health problems, against the background of various diseases, it can change color, moisture, oiliness, elasticity, and rashes on it are a vivid symptom of many ailments. Therefore, healthy skin can only be in a healthy person.

The skin is made up of three layers:

• epidermis covered with a water-fat layer;
• dermis;
• subcutaneous fat.

The condition of each of these layers is reflected in the appearance of the skin and the formation of wrinkles.

Picture 1. Schematic representation of the structure of the skin of the face and around the eyes.

Water-fat layer is the result of the production of sebaceous and sweat glands located in the dermis. It is this layer that is responsible for the moisture content of the skin. But, in addition to the cosmetic effect, the water-fat layer protects the skin from various factors and infections. Its normal state delays the appearance of wrinkles.

Epidermis consists of 5 layers of cells. Most bottom layer(basal) consists of basal keratinocytes. These cells form other layers of the epidermis up to the outer stratum corneum. Horn cells are inherently dead, contain keratin in themselves, and gradually exfoliate, this is how the skin is renewed. Also in the epidermis are melanocyte cells that form melanin. This pigment is responsible for skin color, including racial, the presence of age spots and moles, and under the influence of ultraviolet light, it stains the skin in a dark color - tan.

Figure 2. Schematic representation of the layers of the epidermis.

The main function of the epidermis is to protect against dehydration of the skin, as well as from the action of various factors. In addition, the epidermis contains immune cells that protect the skin from infections.

Dermis- this is actually the skin. It is from the state of the dermis that the firmness and elasticity of the skin largely depends. At its core, it is a connective tissue that forms an elastic and elastic frame of the skin, which consists of:

• collagen;
• elastin;
• protein glycan (hyaluronic acid).

All these substances are formed by special cells called fibroblasts. The greater their quantity and the better the quality, the more elastic the skin.

Hyaluronic acid is able to retain moisture in the skin in the form of such a gel, which makes it even and elastic. Also, this substance prevents the effects of various toxic substances on the skin.

In addition, the dermis contains blood and lymphatic vessels, nerve endings, sebaceous and sweat glands. The rate of wrinkle formation also depends on the condition of these structures.

Subcutaneous fat is made up of fat and connective tissue. For each person, the development of this layer differs depending on the "fatness". There are also many vessels and nerves in the subcutaneous fat layer.

Features of the structure of the skin of the eyelids, around the eyes and lips:

• the skin around the eyes is very thin, four times thinner than the skin of the face;
• thinner water-fat layer due to fewer sebaceous and sweat glands;
• the dermis contains less collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid;
• the subcutaneous fat layer is absent or practically not developed;
• increased supply blood vessels and nerve endings.

All this makes the skin around the eyes and lips more vulnerable and demanding. special attention, because the first wrinkles appear in this area.

Skin types

Cosmetologists distinguish four types of facial skin. The gradation was based on the state of the sebaceous and sweat glands, that is, the moisture and oiliness of the skin.

Facial skin types:

• normal skin- looks good, is not very sensitive to the action of environmental factors, is the least susceptible to the formation of wrinkles.
• Dry skin is usually delicate, with almost no visible pores. But such skin is prone to more rapid irritation and early wrinkling (with improper care).
• Oily skin- usually shines, capillaries are translucent, pores are enlarged. It often forms acne and pustules. But on the other hand, such skin is less vulnerable to the action of various irritants and later forms wrinkles.
• Combination skin- the most problematic. The forehead, nose, lips, and chin are usually oily, while the rest of the face is normal or dry.

The selection of caring, rejuvenating and decorative cosmetics depends on the type of skin.

How are wrinkles formed?

1. Due to various reasons early aging or age poor nutrition and circulation dermis and subcutaneous fat, as well as mimic muscles.
2. in the epidermis fewer basal keratocytes are formed and the number of dead horny cells increases, their normal exfoliation is disturbed, the skin becomes rough and flaky, rougher. Also the number of melanocytes decreases, the skin becomes dull. As a result of this, there is a violation of the discharge of sebum, all metabolic processes in the skin worsen.
3. The work of the sebaceous and sweat glands is disrupted, the water-fat layer becomes thinner, the skin becomes dry, it becomes dehydrated.
4. Fibroblast renewal slows down, as a result - less collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid are formed, the connective tissue loses its original structure. The skin loses its elasticity and easily wrinkles, forming furrows and folds - wrinkles.
5. Decrease in the content of hyaluronic acid in the skin leads to dehydration. Also amplifies negative action on the skin of various toxins, which exacerbates all the processes of wrinkle formation.
6. Thick or thin subcutaneous fat layer also affects the formation of wrinkles. So, with its deficiency, the elasticity of the entire skin decreases, and with its excess, all metabolic processes of the skin are disturbed, and its withering occurs.

As a result, the skin gradually becomes wrinkled, flabby, dull and dry.

Another important role in the development of wrinkles is played by the state of facial muscles, with their overexcitation and flabbiness, mimic folds and various sagging of the skin develop.

Types and types of wrinkles on the face

According to the severity of wrinkles are:
1. Surface- changes occur to a greater extent in the epidermis. Such wrinkles are often found on their faces by young girls and women. The main reason for the appearance of shallow wrinkles is dry skin and facial muscle tension (mimic wrinkles).
2. deep- changes occur in the dermis and subcutaneous fat, skin elasticity is lost, it becomes flabby, sagging of stretched skin appears. This is usually age wrinkles and, unfortunately, they are practically not amenable to smoothing with conventional cosmetic procedures.

Also, according to the severity of wrinkles, they can be divided into dynamic And static. The first ones are not visible in a calm state, they are noticeable only when the facial muscles are strained. The second ones cannot be hidden behind a mask of calmness.

Types of wrinkles due to their occurrence:
1. Mimic- occurs when the muscles of the face are tense.
2. Gravitational- the result of sagging skin due to its poor firmness and elasticity.
3. Age– wrinkles associated with aging usually cover the entire surface of the face.

Anti-aging complex for facial skin care

1. Facial cleansing – required condition healthy skin. During the day, the skin of the face is always polluted with dust, harmful substances from the environment, sweat and sebum. Make-up is also such pollution. All this clogs pores, impairs metabolic processes and slows down the recovery of the epidermis, and as a result, the skin fades, becomes inflamed and becomes wrinkled. The following are simple guidelines for cleansing the skin of the face:

• Going to bed with makeup is a crime against the skin of the face.
• All manipulations on the face should be neat and gentle, strong rubbing, stretching and rubbing of the skin injure it, leading to faster appearance of wrinkles.
• You can clean the skin with water and soap (cosmetic or baby), but it is better to use special cleansers or make-up removers for this. These funds are applied to cotton pads with which the face is rubbed.
• Dry skin should be cleansed with moisturizers, such as milk, and oily skin with lotions and fruit extracts, and in the presence of acne, salicylic acid will help. But for problematic sensitive skin, the usual vegetable oil, for example, olive, as well as decoctions of chamomile or calendula. Also for sensitive skin, micellar water is suitable, which contains unique water crystals - micelles. Micelles are able to remove grease, makeup and dust, do not contain fragrances and other irritating substances.
• Many face masks also cleanse the skin, such as masks with fruit, cucumber, clay, aloe, and others. This is ideal for sensitive skin. Cleansing masks are recommended 1-2 times a week.

2. Peeling or removal of the top layer of the epithelium. This is necessary to accelerate the recovery of the epidermis, as well as to improve the penetration of nutrients and moisturizers. This procedure well rejuvenates and smoothes superficial wrinkles. It is important to know that peeling is not carried out in the areas around the eyes and lips, in the presence of inflammatory and allergic reactions on the skin, as well as before going out into the sun or frost.

Types of peeling:

• Scrub: special cosmetic product, coffee grounds, salt, oatmeal, semolina and everything that comes to hand.
• Washcloth - a special soft washcloth is needed for the face, and when using it, rough movements should not be made.
• Acids and enzymes - fruit acids, salicylic, retinoic acids, honey, etc.
• Procedures in beauty salons: peeling with a laser, acids, enzymes. Such procedures are especially indicated in the presence of pigmentation.

Peeling with a scrub or washcloth can be done 1-2 times a week. Deeper peeling is usually recommended 2 to 6 times a year (depending on the method and individual characteristics).

3. Moisturizing and nourishing the skin of the face. Almost any type of cleansing damages the upper water-fat layer of the epidermis or the protection of our skin, so it is advisable to moisturize the skin after it. To do this, use a moisturizing and nourishing cream or mask. When choosing these products, you need to take into account the peculiarity of your skin and the presence of a particular problem. The mask differs from a nourishing cream in that it is able to nourish the skin very quickly and effectively, as if pushing out wrinkles, giving visible result. This procedure must be carried out every few days or courses. The cream has a cumulative effect and is necessary for daily use. If we compare these products with each other, then the mask is more effective than the cream, and their use in combination gives the same desired result. It is also important to use separate special skin care products around the eyes and lips.

4. Makeup decorative cosmetics- an integral part of self-care for most of the fair sex. But its improper use leads to faster withering and aging of the skin.

Requirements for decorative cosmetics:

• Cosmetics should be of high quality and as natural as possible, not cause allergic reactions and have a good shelf life.
• Should not clog skin pores. It is applied in a thin layer - a thick layer of makeup does not paint anyone.
• Before applying makeup, the skin must be cleansed and moisturized.
• Make up should only be applied with clean sponges and brushes.
• It is necessary to remove makeup in a timely manner.

• deep wrinkles around the lips can be hidden with a concealer;
• matte and dark lipsticks wrinkles are emphasized, lip gloss is better, and if you apply more in the central part of the lips light tone lipsticks, this will visually add volume to them;
• it is important that the lipstick or lip gloss does not smudge, in which case cosmetics like concealer will fill in each wrinkle and color it.
