HOW TO PREVENT CELLULITE & AGING SKIN

Cellulite and aging skin

Unfortunately we all age and on the bright side I see it as a blessing to live that long. A typical sign of us aging is our skin. This can be down to particular internal or external factors, but either way it is something we all try to prevent! Can we prevent it aging? I don’t think so because it’s a natural change we must all undergo but can still delay the process to an extent by minimising how often we exposed our skin to climates, weather, substances and watch the kind of things we eat. Aging of the skin in general is caused by long exposure to sunlight, the strong UVA and UVB rays from tanning salons, cold climate, various toxins from food or the environment, the reduction of fatty internal tissue, but it is mainly down to the stress that exists in each of us unwillingly.

When we age, the collagen in our skin decreases, which means we have less skin regeneration power. Collagen and elastic fibers help keep the skin firm and portray that young appearance we all love, and when they change, the skin loses this firm look and begins to look and feel dry with a thick texture.

For many women the maximum thickness of the dermis (the tissue that supports the skin) is reached at the age of 30. After this age, the dermis begins to decline and the aging process occurs. When we have lower levels of collagen and elastic fibers this can cause the creation of fat cells, which in turn helps to develop cellulite. Inactive lifestyles also help to contribute to cellulite. When cellulite starts to show and you can see your skin aging it is important you act fast to help prevent this getting worse.

Sometimes leading a healthy lifestyle is easier said than done. Reduced free time can sometimes prevent us doing any day to day exercises, sometimes we even struggle to make sure we have a balanced diet which is rich in vitamins and protein. Time passes by quickly and we affect our lifestyles daily. It is necessary to take care of your own body as much as possible and try to give what it needs.

Cellulite is a major problem for many people, (unfortunately more so for women) and it occurs because of the toxins that we provide to our body. To vanish cellulite requires specialised treatment, with is available in many cellulite creams, mousses and gels, however these need to be selected with care as not all do what they say on the bottle! Cellulite products with natural active ingredients are the best ones to use. By feeding your skin natural active ingredients, you don’t give your body toxins and your skin will age more slowly. Some cellulite creams attack cellulite, but unfortunately they also attack the body, so make sure you always read the label! Searching for the right cellulite product may take time, but it is important you don’t use the wrong one and make your skin worse.
