7 Best Anti-Aging Skincare Tips

Lather Up

Don’t be sparse with lotion, whenever you can moisturize do so and you will reduce fine lines when it plumps your skin and protect it from aging further. Richard Fitzpatrick, an associate clinical professor of dermatology at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine, explains, “When we do a peel or surgery, probably the single most important factor around healing is keeping the area well moisturized.” He tells us that sun damage should be treated in the same way with a moisturizer containing glycerin, shea butter, or any other basic hydrator. A daily lotion will also diffuse the damage of smiles and squints from the elasticity it brings your skin.

Don’t Do Damage Working Out

Some people tense their jaw and throat while exercising, which will end up pulling the face down. Of course, this is not an excuse to stop exercising, but instead be mindful how you’re affecting your body.

Don’t Overdue Fillers

Volume fillers like Juvéderm are great anti aging products, but they can actually add years if not done correctly. Seth L. Mattarasso, a clinical professor of dermatology at the University of California School of Medicine in San Fransisco points out if the fillers are overdone, “their eyes, mouth, and even their jawlines can become dwarfed by their protuberant cheeks. He recommends filling the fat pads that decrease with age. He comments, “Filling in the periphery of the face restores softness and balance without making you look done.”
