Skin
is a very important organ as the heart, lungs and liver. It meets all
of the negative manifestations of the external environment. The skin
performs many useful functions: protective (protects internal organs
from microorganisms), cleaning (takes from the body of harmful metabolic
products and poisons), immune. If you look at skin under a microscope,
you will be surprised to see how it is rough and bumpy. And skin is
like a puff pie in the context. This is explained by its complicated
structure. The skin consists of three layers: the bottom layer is hypodermis
(subcutaneous fat), the middle layer is the dermis and the upper is
the epidermis.
Your body is exposed to changes with age, and it is reflected on your face.
It starts after 25 years usually. The natural production of body collagen
and elastin fibers, which are responsible for elasticity and firmness of
your skin, slows down that time. The skin is not able to accumulate as
much moisture as before as a result, and requires special care: special
creams and masks. In addition, blood flow to the skin surface is reduced,
and it does not get enough nutrients more. It becomes porous, dry and starts
to peel off; it loses its healthy glow and pale because of this. Therefore,
you should take care of your skin, use aging skin care products and a variety
of masks. In addition, the aging skin needs more time to fully update:
40 days instead of 28.
So, the skin becomes thinner with age and, therefore, a barrier against
the harmful effects of the environment is less durable. You can slow down
the aging for a few years due to proper care. Such factors as nutrition,
sleep, recreation, sports become more important.
You can prevent aging of skin, if you will have activities in outdoor.
The level of oxygen in the blood, stimulating metabolism is increased.
The experts recommend active in the fresh air three times a week for half
an hour at list. It is best to do aerobics and similar sports to supply
intense your body with oxygen. Experts can advise biking, skiing, swimming
or just gymnastics for women over forty. So, not only the cream and mask,
but the sport will help your skin.
