Here's how you can age gracefully


Aging is a natural process that each person must face – but there are ways to slow it down so that it does not leave its marks on young skin.

Of all the natural processes that the body goes through, most people are not able to come to terms with skin aging. We all like to have youthful, radiant skin. But when the skin begins to look dull and spotted, and also develops fine lines and puffiness, it means that the skin is aging and needs immediate help.

Try these 5 ways to age slowly and gracefully:
1 Get regular facials. Once you cross the age of 25, your skin begins to slowly lose its natural elasticity and moisture. Within time, aging processes make the skin dull and lined. This state of affairs can be easily remedied with regular facials. A facial removes the dead skin cells sitting on the visible upper layer of the skin, and infuses hydration by the use of moisturising creams. The massage further stimulates blood circulation and toxin removal from the skin. Your skin is thus renewed and able to fight aging much better.

2 Get head massages. Just like a facial, it is important to get regular head massages as well. A head massage not only feels great, but the use of warm oil stimulates the scalp to remove dandruff and the impurities that cause hair loss. Further, blood circulation to the scalp is improved. An added benefit of a head massage is that the nerves in the head and neck are connected to major nerves in the back and arms, so massaging these also improves upper body responses.

3 Wear sunscreen every day. The importance of using sunscreen cannot be emphasised enough, especially when one lives in harsh climatic conditions. The sunscreen (preferably with SPF 30 and above) acts as a barrier between the skin and direct sunlight. Thus, it reduces the chances of skin damage and accelerated skin aging.

4 Use the right products. After a certain age, fine lines, wrinkles and age spots start to appear on the skin. While these may be partially cured if caught in time, only the right skin care products are required to erase them. However, you must be careful about the kind of products you use. For example, while most anti-aging skin creams contain retinol to fight fine lines, those with sensitive skin should not use retinol. Some skin types are also not good candidates for glycolic peels. Your dermatologist can recommend the right kind of skin products after studying their composition and your skin type.


5 Get the right skin treatments. Women in their 30s and 40s might feel the need to undergo specific skin treatments to remove the fine lines, wrinkles, sagging skin and pigmentation from their skin. It is important to approach the right skin treatment clinic for these treatments, where the dermatologist will take a detailed consultation and study your skin minutely before prescribing the skin treatment. The clinic also prescribes post-treatment care to maximise the benefits of the skin treatment.

All You Need To Know About Skin Pigmentation

Skin pigmentation can take many forms, and the condition points to an imbalance in the skin cells that produce melanin. This article looks at the condition. You may have noticed it in somebody else, or maybe in yourself – a discoloured patch of skin on the face or body, either darker than the rest of the skin or lighter. There are some whose entire body is covered in white skin, accompanied by light hair and eyes. In others, there are prominent spots or skin lesions. All of these conditions point to different types of skin pigmentation. What is it? Skin pigmentation is a general term used to describe a change in the skin’s cellular composition that brings about discolouration of the skin. The skin gets its colour from melanin, a pigment present in the dermis. It is produced by melanocytes, which are special cells present in the upper layer of the skin called the epidermis. When melanin is produced, it quickly starts spreading across the skin – thus, your skin is uni

Botox and Facial Fillers – How do they work?

There is a difference in the way botox and dermal facial fillers work. This article explains the need for both, and how to get a good treatment for botox in Dubai. Wrinkles and fine lines are a natural effect of aging. But they can make you look much older than your actual years. If you want to get rid of these unseemly wrinkles, you could consider getting a filler injection or Botox in Dubai. How are Botox and dermal filler treatments different? Most people are confused between Botox and dermal facial filler treatments. Though both are used to reduce the fine lines and wrinkles on the face, they are dramatically different in the way they are administered and how they function. With Botox, you are administered tiny doses of Botulinum Toxin, a neurotoxin that is injected into the nerve in the wrinkle being targeted. The nerve is deactivated temporarily, thus inhibiting the muscle that it sends impulses to. In turn, the muscle is also deactivated, which relaxes the

Why Opt For A Permanent Hair Removal?

A major task for every woman is probably taking care of the hair problems in a sense of having to maintain a hair free body and that too in all the appropriate parts of the body. Women also have to go through a lot of pains in the literal sense to get a hairless body. Hair removal styles such as waxing and even shaving have certain disadvantages. They can cause problems such as bruises and bumps which are very uncomfortable. There is a permanent solution for this which is known as laser hair removal. This treatment ensures permanent hair removal on all the appropriate parts of the body. This is a very effective hair removal treatment which is determined by the examination of the hair follicle. The framework of the laser is defined thoroughly by the match of the laser light with the location and size of the hair follicle. You should look for an effective solution for hair removal considering different factors such as pain and discomfort and the recurring cost which it takes for
