What causes facial wrinkling? What can be done about it? Are anti-aging skincare products truly effective? If you're looking for answers, you have come to the right place.
There are many causes of wrinkles, as well as a number of factors that contribute to them. Basically, they are outward symptoms of the aging process.
You have probably noticed that some people seem to age better than others. They have fewer wrinkles. Their skin is soft, glowing and smooth. So, what accounts for the difference?
Things like overexposure to the sun, cigarette smoke and excessive dryness contribute to premature aging of the skin. Some of the common ingredients in skincare products do, too. Petrolatum is an example.
Some dermatologists warned against the use of petrolatum on a regular basis decades ago. They had found that it contributed to premature skin aging. But, the cosmetic companies failed to listen. To this day, petrolatum is still one of the most common ingredients found in makeup, lotion and other skincare products.
So, one of the reasons that some people experience more facial wrinkling than others has to do with the skincare products they use. Another has to do with the amount of time they spend in the sun without protection. Yet another is smoking cigarettes.
The underlying cause of wrinkles according to dermatologists is free radical damage. Sunlight, cigarette smoke and environmental toxins (some of which have been found to contaminate petrolatum) cause free radical damage. Antioxidants can help prevent it if present.
So, what can you do about wrinkles? You can keep your skin's antioxidant content high by eating lots of fruits and vegetables. And, you can supplement your skin's antioxidant content by using moisturizing creams containing natural vitamin E and coenzyme Q10.
Particles of coenzyme Q10 have been shown to reverse facial wrinkling, but only the tiniest particles are effective. The normal-sized particles of COQ10 are too large to penetrate through the skin's surface.
Nourishing moisturizers are beneficial in many ways, as long as they do not contain petrolatum. Excessive dryness is one of the causes of wrinkles.
