HOW TO PREVENT WRINKLES

Wrinkles are part of the natural ageing process. Therefore they have to be accepted as such. However there are certain tips, which could help you prevent or at least reduce the development of wrinkles. So in order to control the onset of wrinkles and further progression of those already present you should know the following tips...

Usually the clouds and haze are not protective for the skin because sometime they may intensify the UVB rays, which are harmful for the skin.

The intensity of the Ultraviolet rays depends very much on the angle of the sun and not on heat or brightness of the sun.

In fact the sun lamps and tanning beds provide most of the UVA rays. And some of the experts also believe that 15 to 30 minutes at a tanning salon are as dangerous as a day spent in the sunlight.

How to prevent the development of wrinkles?

* Actually the best way to prevent the skin damage in any case is to avoid episodes of excessive sun exposure.
* One should particularly avoid the sun exposure during the hours of 10 AM to 4 PM because in this duration the sunlight pours down about 80% of its daily UV rays.
* In this duration the reflective surfaces such as sand, concrete and white-painted areas should also be avoided.
* Sunscreens and sun blocks, when used generously, could also help prevent the skin ageing and thus skin cancers.
* Remember that you should not use sunscreen in order to stay out in the sun for a longer duration because it could paradoxically allow deeper skin damage including wrinkling without the warning of sunburn.
* However it does not mean that the people should avoid sunscreens but that they should always use them in combination with other sun-protective measures.
* In fact any sunscreen should contain a wide spectrum of UVA-blocking ingredients, which include butyl methoxydibenzoyl-methane (also called avobenzone or Parsol 1789), dioxybenzone, oxybenzone, sulisobenzone, methyl anthranilate, octocrylene, and octyl methoxycinnamate or ethylhexyl p-methoxycinnamate.
* The waterproof formulas for this purpose last for about 40 minutes in the water whereas water-resistant formulas last half as long.
* The sun blocks prevent nearly all UVA and UVB rays from reaching the skin but in order to be fully protective they must contain zinc oxide or titanium dioxide.
* The SPF is an indexed number based on the amount of UV radiation required to turn the sunscreen or sun block - treated skin red compared to the non-treated skin.
* Always keep in mind that the sunscreens should not be used on babies younger than six months.
* It is advisable that the older children should apply sunscreen of at least SPF 15.
* Whereas for the adults, any sunscreen or sun block used should have an SPF factor of 15 or higher. However the adults who rarely tan and burn easily should use SPF 30.
* The sunscreen or sun block should be applied liberally for about 15 to 30 minutes before venturing outdoors and reapplied every two hours or so even on overcast days and especially after exercise or swimming.
* Everyone, including the children should wear hats with wide brims.
* Wearing sun-protective clothing is extremely important because it protects the skin even better than any sunscreens.
* Today even the clothing is being designed for blocking UV rays and is being rated using SPR ratings or the UPF (ultraviolet protection factor) index, with 50 UPF being the highest.
* The people should look for loosely fitted, unbleached, tightly woven fabrics.
* Washing clothes over and over improves the UPF by drawing fabrics together during shrinkage.
* It is advised that everyone over age one should wear sunglasses as it blocks all UVA and UVB rays when in the sun.
* People are encouraged to wash their face with a mild non-soap cleanser. Alkaline soaps, especially with deodorant should be avoided.
* The skin should be patted dry and immediately lubricated with a water-based moisturizer (ideally with SPF 30 filter) to prevent further dehydration.
* There are so many creams and lotions are available, which claim to provide wrinkle-protection.
* Some immediate strategies, which could be initiated for wrinkle protection, are to check your skin care products to make sure that you are using only neutral ph balanced soaps, body washes and moisturizers etc.
* You should also make sure that you avoid harsh irritants such as perfumed soaps, chlorinated swimming pools and hot showers and moisturizers regularly.
* In addition to creams and other topical products, many people are turning to Cosmetic Doctors for rejuvenation techniques to reduce the wrinkles. These techniques include injectables, fillers and chemical peels.
* Regular facial is also very effective in controlling the wrinkles.

* However, the best long-term prevention for wrinkled skin is a healthy lifestyle with daily exercise to keep the circulation moving, a diet with plenty of whole grains, fresh fruits and vegetables, staying out of the sun as much as possible, wearing sun-screen and on-going methods for reducing stress and tension.
