When Should You Start Treating Your Skin For Wrinkles?

June 28th, 2007

When do you start protecting yourself from signs of aging and wrinkles? Most experts recommend protection for the skin starting in infancy. As you approach young adulthood, it is even more important to protect your skin and life choices you make in your early 20’s and 30’s can affect the way your skin ages and wrinkles when you are older.

This is a period of your life when you should take especially good care of your skin. Avoiding sun damage is one of the keys to preventing premature aging and severe wrinkles. Your choices involving tobacco, alcohol and drugs also affect the way your skin ages. The beginnings of fine lines and small wrinkles are not uncommon in young adults. Collagen damage can result in molecular changes in the elasticity of our skin. Letting it go is not an option because problems can be more severe in the future.

It is a good time to start taking small steps to keep your face looking young, fresh and smooth. Use a good moisturizer lotion or cream should be part of your daily routine. Prevention is the most important step in preventing wrinkles and aging, as you grow older. You may want to start using creams or lotions that contain alpha hydroxy acids, as they appear to slow the process of aging by stimulating new collagen production.

If you are already noticing small lines and wrinkles there are several treatments that can help fight them. Soft tissue fillers are one way of reducing these skin problems. They are usually fat or collagen taken from other areas of your body and used to fill in small areas on your face. These injections will smooth and plump areas of the face that are causing concern.

Another treatment that is popular is Botox. This wrinkle reducing agent is injected in small amounts into muscles in the face. This stops them from pulling on other areas of the face and creating wrinkles. Botox is normally used for treating fine lines around the eyes, forehead, nose, and eyebrows. This therapy is considered effective and safe with no healing time.

You may also consider a mild chemical peeling to take care of problems that have already started while in your 20’s. A solution is used to remove discolored, dull, or aging skin and allows fresh new skin to form.

Something else to consider if you are woman of this age is pregnancy and birth control. Pregnancy is stressful on the entire body and many times the stress shows up on the skin. Stretch marks, varicose, and spider veins are all associated with pregnancy. There are ways to deal with these problems. Pregnancy produces hormonal changes in the body that can result in temporary skin discoloration and a flare up of acne.

Birth control methods may make the body react in the same way. Chemical peeling, laser treatment, and pulsed light treatments may be used to improve these conditions. Some women have skin that looks perfect and radiant while pregnant only to have it revert to cases of acne and dullness after giving birth.
