Tips to Prevent Aging Skin



A part of getting older is noticing loose skin on different parts of the body. Although this is common with age, our lifestyle habits can play a major role in the aging process. Sagging skin may be caused by genetics, disorders, diet, etc. Here are a few tips that will help minimize saggy skin, and encourage the production of collagen in the body.

 

Exercise

Collagen is an essential protein in the body that supports skin elasticity. Unfortunately, with age, collagen production slowly begins to decrease. When this happens, it’s easy to notice the appearance of sagginess in different areas of the skin because the body is losing its ability to snap

 

 

Eliminate Unhealthy Habits

Due to a decrease in collagen production in the body, it is important to maintain a balanced diet that is high in nutrients, antioxidants, and collagen. Eating healthy along with exercise aids in enhancing muscle recovery time, which makes your muscles get tighter faster to help minimize sagginess on the skin. Furthermore, eating foods that are rich in proteins help increase and improve collagen production in the body. Increased levels of collagen also improve elasticity levels, which reduces sagginess by increasing skin tightness.

 

Sunscreen

Harmful UV Rays take a toll on the skin and cause premature signs of aging. The harmful rays breakdown the collagen and elastin fibers on the skin, which leads to wrinkles, fine lines, and sagginess. Before stepping out of the house for the day, be sure to apply sunscreen whether it is hot or cold. Sunscreen aids in shielding the skin from harmful UV lights, which prevents the breakdown of collagen in the body. Additionally, make sure to wear protective clothing and not completely exposure your skin to the sun. A few helpful accessories include hats, sunglasses, scarfs, long-sleeves, etc. Taking proper care of your health and skin will help minimize your chances of getting saggy skin. Make sure to put a stop to all unhealthy habits, apply sunscreen, and take proper care of your skin this Fall. Stay moisturized and upgrade your skincare routine by trying Keracell today!
