Top Dermatologist Provides Tips to Prevent Wrinkles
“With
age comes wisdom.” And many women prefer that intellect give away their
age—not the creases and ridges on their face. The beauty industry is
filled with products and “miracle” creams promising to reduce the
appearance of wrinkles. But prior to reversing damage, women must take
note of preventative measures. Why not work to prevent wrinkles, instead
of waiting for the future battle? With the following beneficial tips
from New York/New Jersey-based Board-Certified Dermatologist Dr. Rebecca Baxt, you can work to prevent creases from creeping up on you.
Sleeping Beauty
Though
it us difficult to change sleeping habits, if you don’t sleep on your
back—try to! Sleep lines are tough to get rid of. And though a good
nights rest is needed for a youthful appearance, it doesn’t end there.
Your position makes a difference when hitting the sack! “Avoid sleeping
on your face or side with your skin all scrunched up in your sheets,”
explains Dr. Baxt. “This will help prevent lines on your face,
especially in areas prone to wrinkles.”
Beautify Gently
When
applying makeup or washing it off before bed, try to be gentle. Don’t
rub around your eyes to wash out excessive eyeliner and mascara. Be
gentle around the eyes. Don’t use harsh towels, avoid vigorously
scrubbing your face or stretching your skin daily to apply makeup in
sensitive areas. Take your time!
Like Mother, Like Daughter
How
do you know if you are prone to wrinkles and in which areas? Look at an
older family member’s face—especially your mother. If you suspect an
upcoming battle with creases in your future, speak to your dermatologist
about preventative measures like Botox®. “Botox® treatments can be used
to prevent wrinkles for women in their 20s and 30s,” adds Dr. Baxt. “It
is a great time to start preventing wrinkles on the upper area of the
face.”
Kiss Lip Lines Goodbye
Want
to avoid lip lines? Don't drink from a straw repeatedly, smoke or
constantly blow bubbles with bubble gum. Activities that cause you to
pucker or purse your lips may result in added lines. If you are prone to
lip lines— again observing family members to see if you might be
genetically predisposed—, avoid pursing your lips. To further prevent
lip lines, don't get electrolysis. “I see many patients years after they
have had electrolysis developing pitted scars and wrinkles on their
upper lip. It is a nonspecific heat probe, so as it’s killing the hair,
it can inadvertently kill some collagen too. It’s rare, but it does
happen. Try laser hair removal to remove hair or just bleach, thread,
wax or shave.”
Maintain Protection
It is a given that
avoiding the sun and using sunscreen is one of the most effective
anti-aging measures. However, many people forget to reapply. Sunscreen
only lasts 2-3 hours, so keep a powder sunscreen in your bag and reapply
throughout the day. “I personally recommend Colorescience, a product I
use myself for this purpose.”
