How to Prevent Facial Wrinkles

August 17, 2011 by nidhiseth

 

It is natural for us to dread the emergence of fine lines and wrinkles on our face as they constantly remind us of our growing age. According to dermatologists, with the growing age, our skin starts to loose it natural moisture and elasticity. The condition if not checked on the right time leads to facial wrinkles. Although, there is no escape from these inevitable signs of aging, there are certain measures that can be employed to prevent or minimize the appearance of these aging signs.

Causes of facial wrinkles

How to Prevent Facial WrinklesOver the years, watching our elders show face wrinkles and other signs of aging, we have learned that there is simply no escape from these aging after-effects. However, have we ever wondered what factors actually trigger the emergence of facial wrinkles? According to experts, the loss of natural nourishment and elasticity of the skin with the age is one of biggest contributors of the development of aging signs. In addition, the damaging exposure of the ultraviolet rays of sun is yet another culprit which speeds up the formation of face wrinkles. Further, stress, the most acknowledged culprit for several cardiovascular disorders, also contributes towards the premature development of aging signs. In addition, lack of water content in the body, unhealthy eating habits, wrong sleeping habits and lack of exercises further accelerate the emergence of facial wrinkles.

 

Ways to prevent facial wrinkles

Shield your skin from sun rays

Constant exposure of the skin towards the damaging UV rays speeds up the formation of facial wrinkles. It is believed that frequent exposure of the bare skin towards sun affects its elasticity and hence leads to the formation of fine lines. So, in order to prevent the formation of these aging signs, it is imperative to wear an effective sunscreen lotion before stepping out of home. You may also wear sunglasses to cut off the direct contact of sun rays and the skin under the eyes. This step may work towards avoiding the formation of eye wrinkles.

Yoga

It is indeed interesting to know that performance of yoga asanas on a regular basis not only has a positive effect on our mind but also on the appearance of the skin. It essentially reverses the signs of growing age and prolongs the youthful appearance of our skin.

Increased intake of water

Water is a magical anti-oxidant which not only keeps the toxins at bay, but also thoroughly hydrates the skin. Adequate water content in the body keeps the skin well moisturized and hence prevents formation of facial wrinkles.

Avoid smoking

Incessant smoking is believed to be one of the causes of facial wrinkles. The smoke inhaled essentially robs the skin off its moisture and thereby causes facial wrinkles. Therefore, smokers are strictly advised to eliminate the habit so as to prevent the emergence of facial wrinkles. Know more about Harmful effects of smoking.

Changes in sleeping position

It is indeed intriguing to know that the manner in which you sleep essentially contributes towards the formation of these unwanted fine lines on your face. The best positions that work wonders towards avoiding these unwanted aging signs are back resting on the bed and side sleeping. These positions are good for preventing snores as well as facial wrinkles.

Moisturizer with SPF 15

A good moisturizer with adequate SPF content works great towards blocking your skin from the damaging exposure of the sun rays.

Right Diet

The diet that works towards reducing / preventing facial wrinkles essentially comprises of anti-oxidants that prevent the sagging of the skin. Such a diet calls for increased intake of water, pomegranates, green tea and acai berry.

Anti-wrinkles creams

These creams have a special formula that works well at attacking the facial wrinkles right at their initial stage. The formula keeps the skin well hydrated and nourished for the entire day which further prevents the appearance of lines of sorts on the skin.

Control over facial expressions

It is believed that a control over facial expressions, especially the creases, prevents the chances of formation of facial wrinkles. Expressions like frowning, squinting, rubbing and eyebrow raising speed up the formation of eye wrinkles  and on the entire face.

Facial Exercises

  • Inhale some air in the mouth and release the air slowly. This particular exercise works towards toning the cheek region and must be done every day in the morning.
  • Close the lips tightly and then move the mouth from left to right. Repeat the exercise 3-4 times in short intervals to keep the lips well toned.
  • Pull your eyebrows up and then down for at least 5-6 times. This exercise is meant to keep the skin under the eyebrows well toned.
  • Chew a gum for 15-20 minutes only, lest it causes head aches. Doing this keeps the muscles of your entire face tight and well toned.
  • Stretch your lips in a smiling face position, hold them for a few seconds and then release them. This works well for toning your cheek muscles.
  • Put your index finger and middle finger above the eyebrows and move them up and down. Doing this relieves your forehead muscles.

Before attempting these exercises, remember to keep your hands clean. Unless you feel uneasy or pain, continue these exercises for as long as you can. You are advised to consult your dermatologist for better guidance.
