The areas of the body where the premature aging of our skin is most evident are the face and neck.
There are different factors in our lifestyles that influence this condition, among them are excessive exposure to the sun, as ultraviolet rays affect the production of collagen and elastin, proteins that confer resistance and elasticity to the tissues. On the other hand, there is the nutrition since, if it does not contain the necessary nutrients, it begins to see diminished the freshness of the skin.
Habits such as tobacco or liquor consumption are also determinants for premature aging, as they reduce the level of oxygen in the blood, affecting the production of collagen. Some liquors also reduce the amount of vitamin A.
Likewise, lack of sleep causes skin aging to occur, as the production of growth hormone, crucial for skin regeneration, is reduced. Not sleeping also contributes to the generation of stress, a condition that generates a hormonal imbalance, decreasing the production of collagen.
