Ageing is an undeniable process with changes that come with growing older. These changes can be visible on our skin due to various reasons, such as the Australian sun and lifestyle habits such as smoking and consuming alcohol.
Luckily, there are steps we can take to keep our skin looking younger and fresher. The rate at which your skin ages can depend on many lifestyle and genetic factors. For example, smoking can result in the production of harmful free radicals which can result in wrinkles due to the damage of skin cells.
One of the key factors in the aging process is the loss of hyaluronic acid, which can hold up to 1000 times its own weight in water, providing hydration to the skin. Collagen and elastin are embedded in the hyaluronic acid and both collagen and elastin play an important role in the prevention of aging. Therefore, when hyaluronic acid is no longer being produced, the loss of collagen and elastin as a result causes aging skin.
While aging is a natural process, there are in-clinic therapies which can be used to combat and slow the aging process to help us feel and look more youthful.
