Skin Care

Having good skin is incredibly important as it’s the largest organ of the body. Literally every inch of you is covered in skin, making it the body’s wallpaper in a sense. If you don’t have good looking skin then, people are going to notice. The skin most people are concerned with however is the face, and this is what can drastically alter our looks – adding or subtracting a good ten years from our age depending on its condition.

Fortunately there are a large variety of techniques and practices you can use to keep your skin looking healthy, from moisturising, laser skin rejuvenation and laser facials, to keeping a healthy diet and getting the right amount of sunlight.

The first line of defence against old or damaged looking skin then is to make sure you keep a healthy diet. This should include all of the major food groups including the good fats in the correct amounts (it’s a common misconception that a healthy diet is one with no fats or carbs) as otherwise your skin will become flaky and dry. At the same time you should make sure you get all your vitamins and minerals, particularly vitamin E which is known for its positive effects on the skin. In fact a vitamin supplement can be a great way to instantly improve your skin. Meanwhile avoid sugary foods such as chocolates and cakes in excess, and if you suffer from acne avoid acidic fruits such as tomatoes. Another great supplement is an antioxidant to help protect skin cells from free radicals.

You can also get vitamins and moisture to your skin by using creams, and moisturising regularly is a great way to help heal scars, pock marks and wrinkles. This will work even better if you use an exfoliating cream first to clear away the dead skin cells that can otherwise absorb the moisture and nutrients. Over time and as we get older some dead skin cells will collect that are hard to get rid of, so for a more thorough exfoliation consider a laser facial.

As well as a laser facial, another laser skin rejuvenation technique is laser genesis. Here laser genesis will stimulate the middle layer of the skin to produce more collagen which has many positive effects on the skin and can decrease the appearance of wrinkles and scarring. If this isn’t enough to remove the extra years you get given by wrinkles, then another final technique is skin tightening, which will drastically improve wrinkles on the forehead and around the eyes and sagging around the neck and cheeks.

The final consideration once you’ve improved your lifestyle and use laser skin rejuvenation, is the prospect of a tan. This can make your skin look younger and healthier, but direct sunlight can also damage skin cells. By using a self tanning lotion then, it’s possible to get your skin looking more bronze without risking mutations or damage to your cells. Additionally for women it’s possible to use makeup to improve their colouring, to draw the eye to preferable areas of the skin and to conceal blemishes. Consider again however that you don’t want your makeup to irritate your skin and cause problems in the long run.
