Pull-up face masks

When it comes to aging, you can often hear the famous expression “age takes its toll,” but when it comes to skin, this phrase is not an unconditional truth. In the body of a woman over the years, deep-seated processes occur, which, first of all, are associated with hormonal changes.

After 45 years, the production of a hormone such as estrogen, which is responsible for maintaining youth, is reduced in the body of a woman. At the same time, the reproduction of collagen and elastin slows down, giving the skin a natural elasticity and preserving its shape.

The elastin fibers of the epidermis are proteins, they help it to “recover” during facial stretching and return to its original smooth shape. Collagen is one of the most important proteins that forms the structure of the skin. These are the "building blocks" of the skin, keeping it supple, fresh and supple.

The situation is aggravated by the fact that when the skin sags, it is constantly stretching, opens the pores, even more losing attractiveness. The loss of the contour of the face also occurs due to the thinning of the fat layer of the dermis, which interferes with the nourishment of the skin and causes its dryness, being an additional factor of sagging.

An unpleasant moment is the stretching of the ligaments that support the facial muscles, which leads to such changes in the shape of the face, such as drooping eyelids and eyebrows, as well as eye bags.

There are some rules to follow in order to slow down these processes and reduce their visible effects:

1. Sun damage is the main cause of premature aging. It is necessary to use sunscreen, while outside in the heat, wear hats and closed clothing. It is recommended to avoid exposure to the sun from 11 to 14 hours, the so-called "peak sun-hours";
2. Smoking is the second largest cause, so women who want to prolong the youth of their skin should stop smoking;
3. Do not ignore the complex treatment, which facilitates the climacteric period and is expressed in hormone therapy; taking such drugs as golden root, ginseng root, eleutherococcus, which are adaptogens, will delay aging of the skin;
4. Smart skin care is also able to slow down its aging. An integrated approach that includes peels using alpha-hydroxide and salicylic acids; emphasis on moisturizing the skin, with hyaluronic acid as needed; use of anti-aging remedies;
5. Adhere to a balanced diet that can provide healthy skin with amino acids, vitamins A, C and E, and minerals, silicon and zinc. Avoid high-fat and high-fat foods that can cause premature aging;
6. Keep fit, control your weight. You should not lose weight too quickly, you can safely “throw off” about 0.5 kg per week to avoid skin sagging. It is necessary to avoid dehydration and fasting, and maintain a comfortable muscle mass.

Lifting is a series of cosmetic procedures for tightening the skin on the face. The first mention of this term appeared at the beginning of the last century. Since then, the meaning of the lifting procedure is reduced to solving one problem: the removal of excess skin, which appears due to the natural changes that occur in the human body due to its age.

At the moment, procedures related to the facelift, have become one of the most popular. Plastic surgery is the most invasive method of treating flaccidity of the skin, but this is associated with significant costs and the possibility of complications.
