Is Graceful Aging Possible?

As we get older our entire body changes both internally and externally. This process of change is one that is guaranteed for everyone, and while it occurs at a different pace, speed and intensity for each individual, it is inevitable and unavoidable.

What causes aging?

Aging is the natural occurrence of change that happens with each passing year. It is associated with growing fatigue and tiredness, the altered effective functions of internal organs, and the noticeable transformations of the appearance and texture of the skin. Aside from the natural process of aging, there are external factors that contribute to a rapid increase in the body’s deterioration. Excessive unprotected exposure to the sun, air pollution, and even habits like smoking all contribute to aging.

Signs of aging in skin

With each additional year, our skin loses a degree of strength, elasticity, suppleness and softness. Fine lines and wrinkles are the most visible signs of aging of the skin, and beyond these obvious indications of skin agingare greater alterations in the structure of the skin that are not entirely visible.

One such example is when the upper layer of the skin, known as the epidermis, begins to thin, and a rapid reduction in the activity of the sebaceous glands sets in. These two factors are not visible to the eye, but their combination alters the texture of the skin, causing it to become increasingly dry. 

Another invisible alteration is the loss in the skin’s elastin fibers and reduction of collagen levels which induce the recognizable looseness and sagginess found in mature skin, and the visible sight of wrinkles.Other signs of aging in the skin are the decelerated speed of healing when skin damage occurs, and the appearance of age spots and visible blood vessels. 

It is undeniable that these indications of the skin’s maturation are less than desirable, as it is only natural to want long-lasting youthful skin. Maturation of the skin doesn’t have to be a dreaded occurrence if we give our skin the tender loving care it needs.
