5 Ways to Treat Facial Aging After 25

Some people say that the beauty before the age of 25 is a gift from God, but after 25 you have to maintain it yourself. After a woman turns 25, her body's repair mechanism will begin to decline, and collagen will be lost in large quantities, causing her firm skin to gradually become loose and lose elasticity, and annoying fine lines will appear. The five most common aging phenomena after the age of 25 are:

1. [Sagging skin]

As we age, our skin gradually loses its elasticity. Coupled with the strong downward pull of gravity, the skin that is no longer firm and lacks elasticity will become loose and sagging.

When the skin and subcutaneous tissue begin to shift and sag, your originally tight facial contours begin to expand outward. When the loose skin that is easily pulled and sagged continues to expand outward, the facial contours will continue to be enlarged, and the tight V-shaped face will become a loose U-shaped face.

Rescue:

1. Supplement collagen

Collagen is the main component that maintains the elasticity of skin and muscles. As we age, collagen fibers begin to become thinner and the elasticity of elastin decreases, leading to the formation of fine lines and the skin begins to age and sag.

Collagen is known as "bone of bones, skin of skin". Supplementing collagen can keep the skin young. Animal dermis is rich in collagen, and its sources are wide and the supplementation cost is low. Pig skin, cattle and sheep skin, chicken skin, duck skin and other poultry skin, fish skin, etc. are rich in high-quality collagen. You can make them into ordinary dishes, soups, or jelly.

The wings and claws of poultry are mainly composed of bones, tendons, dermis, etc., with very little muscle and fat. The largest content is collagen. Therefore, foods like chicken wings, chicken feet, duck paws, duck wings, goose paws, etc. are all good sources of collagen supplements.

2. Supplement vitamin C

Vitamin C is a water-soluble substance that can rebuild the junction between the dermis and the epidermis, promote the production of collagen fibers, and reduce the loss of collagen. In addition, it has a strong ability to scavenge free radicals and can effectively delay skin aging.

Vitamin C is rich in fruits and vegetables. Carrots, tomatoes and citrus fruits are rich in vitamin C.

3. Eat a balanced diet

Overeating will overburden the spleen and stomach, and cause excess nutrition, which will prevent the skin from maintaining normal metabolism, causing the skin to be overstretched and lose its original elasticity and become loose; while dieting will cause the skin to lose nutrients too quickly without effective replenishment, forming cavities under the skin, causing the skin to become sunken and loose.

Therefore, effectively maintaining normal diet and nutrition is also a very important part of preventing skin sagging.

2. Dull skin

As we age, our body's functions will gradually degenerate. The most obvious is the slowdown in the growth of new cells in the body, coupled with the gradual slowing of metabolism. Aging cells cannot be metabolized in a timely and smooth manner, and continue to accumulate on the surface of the skin. Slowly, the skin begins to show fatigue, dull and lusterless.

1. Exfoliation

Regular facial exfoliation can help the skin metabolize and remove old dead skin cells, so as to avoid the old dead skin cells continuing to accumulate in the pores, which not only makes the skin feel rough, but also makes the skin tone look dull.

2. Sun protection

Whether it is a sunny day or a cloudy day, the damage of ultraviolet rays to the skin is the same. Even if you are resting or doing activities indoors, ultraviolet rays will penetrate the glass and directly hit the skin. If you want to protect your skin from the harm of ultraviolet rays, you cannot take daily sun protection lightly.

3. Massage

Regular facial massage can effectively promote blood circulation and make your skin look more rosy and shiny.

4. Daily routine

Always remember that staying up late is definitely the biggest enemy of beauty, because an abnormal lifestyle will not only affect the operation of the biological clock, but also cause chaos in the body's endocrine system, making it impossible for melatonin to be secreted normally, and the skin cannot function normally to whiten its skin. Of course, you cannot have fair and beautiful skin.

3. [Dark spot formation]

When our skin begins to age, the natural moisturizing factors on the surface of the skin will gradually be lost. Coupled with the thickening and accumulation of the stratum corneum and the increase of melanin, dark spots will slowly appear on the skin.

Rescue:

1. Sun protection: Sun protection is very important! Because pigmentation spots are most afraid of sunlight. Excessive exposure to sunlight or X-rays and ultraviolet rays can trigger pigmentation spots and aggravate them.

2. It is taboo to use "quick-acting freckle cream" containing hormones, lead, mercury and other harmful substances, as they have serious side effects. Do not abuse cosmetics, especially inferior quality cosmetics.

3. Pay attention to rest and ensure adequate sleep, and quit bad habits such as smoking, drinking, staying up late, etc.; lack of sleep can easily cause dark circles under the eyes and make the skin gray and black.

4. Drink more water and eat more fruits and vegetables, such as tomatoes, cucumbers, strawberries, peaches, etc. Avoid eating irritating foods, as they can easily cause skin aging, especially coffee, cola, strong tea, cigarettes, alcohol, etc.

5. Drinking a glass of tomato juice every day or eating tomatoes regularly can help prevent freckles. Because tomatoes are rich in glutathione, glutathione can inhibit melanin, thereby reducing or eliminating pigmentation.

4. [Fine lines generation]

Whether you are a man or a woman, fine lines are definitely the number one enemy of anti-aging.

As time goes by, when we get older, the fat and collagen in our facial skin will decrease. Without the support of the contents, our skin will become like a deflated ball. Without the tension support on the surface, lines will form one after another, just like a sculptor carving on your face, leaving lines of varying depths.

Rescue:

1. Adjust facial expressions

Some people have the habit of frowning, glaring or raising their eyebrows, which results in corresponding wrinkles. We are often unaware of our facial expressions. If you look in the mirror and observe how you use your muscles to make expressions, you may be able to make some conscious adjustments.

2. Take vitamin E

Wrinkles on the face indicate aging of the body. Only by taking both internal and external measures can we truly prevent wrinkles. Doctors believe that taking vitamin E in moderation can effectively fight aging.

3. Drink more tea

Tea is rich in tea polyphenols, aromatic fine compounds, carbohydrates, multiple amino acids, vitamins, minerals and pectin. Drinking tea regularly can keep the skin smooth, white and tender, delay the appearance of facial wrinkles and reduce wrinkles.

4. Sleeping on your back

When you sleep with your face pressed against the pillow, you will develop “sleep lines” which may turn into wrinkles over time. It may be a hard habit to break, but if you can train yourself to sleep on your back, you'll eventually see fewer wrinkles on your face.

5. Drying

Another indicator of aging is dry skin. In addition to the fine lines, sagging, dark spots and dullness mentioned above, you will also find that the skin's water retention is not as good as before. The glycosaminoglycans that can maintain the skin's moisture will also gradually decrease with age, which will make our skin appear dry.

1. Moisturize the skin from the outside.

After cleansing your face every day, spray a little moisturizing spray on your face to allow moisture to be fully absorbed through the clean pores to increase skin moisture. You can also apply skin care lotion on your body after bathing to moisturize your skin, so as to reduce the lack of oil on the skin after bathing and lose more water.

2. Eat fruits to replenish water

In summer, there are an abundance of fruits and vegetables, such as watermelon, cucumber, tomato, etc., which can be used as dishes and can also replenish water and nutrition. Making these fresh fruits and vegetables a side dish is really an economical and practical good habit. Many fruits are rich in various beauty nutrients and can fully nourish the skin.

3. Don’t rub your body too much when bathing

Excessive scrubbing of the body not only removes dead skin cells, but also some skin cells that are still functioning. Those cells on the body surface are like "steamed bun skin", which can prevent the internal water from being consumed quickly outwards. Once the "steamed bun skin" is peeled off, the moisture in the skin will be lost quickly.
