How to Prevent Premature Skin Aging

Posted by Opus Int. on

Aging is inevitable. And, if you’re not careful, your skin may appear older - even though you’re not at that age yet. 

This phenomenon, known as premature skin aging, occurs due to several preventable factors, such as exposure to sun, high-energy, and infrared light. Smoking, alcohol, stress, poor sleep, and an unhealthy diet play significant roles as well. 

The good news is you can prevent these wrinkles and age spots from forming. It’s simply a matter of following these tips on how to prevent premature skin aging:

  • Shun the Sun

Sunlight or ultraviolet light can result in photoaging, which accounts for 90% of the noticeable skin changes - such as sun spots, wrinkles, etc. Too much exposure, in fact, can lead to skin cancer. 

As such, it’s best to wear protective garbs, such as hats, long-sleeved shirts, and pants, whenever you go outside. 

More importantly, use sunscreen with a sun protection factor (SPF) of at least 30 religiously. Apply it at least 15-20 minutes before you go out, and reapply it every two hours. 

  • Stay Away From Tanning Beds

Who doesn’t want a tan? 

Unfortunately, your tanning bed can end up aging your skin quicker. If you plan on getting a sunkissed look, skip the tanning bed and use a self-tanning product instead. 

  • Live Healthy

Smoking, alcohol, and an unhealthy diet can lead to premature aging, which is why you need to live a healthier life. That means:

  • Eating more fruits and vegetables and avoiding sugar- or carbohydrate-rich food
  • Working out regularly
  • Sleeping seven hours a night (or more)
  • Reducing (or better yet, eliminating) alcohol intake
  • Quitting smoking
  • Managing your stress through meditation or yoga
  • Take Good Care of Your Skin

The fact of the matter is your skin will age faster if you don’t take good care of it. So if you want to keep looking youthful, you should: 

  • Cleanse and moisturize your skin regularly
  • Use products that contain anti-aging ingredients, such as Vitamin C and Retinol
  • Avoid harsh skincare products 

The Takeaway

While it’s difficult to stop the hands of time, you can easily prevent premature skin aging by improving your lifestyle and taking good care of your skin.
