How to reduce facial wrinkles for firmer and more elastic skin

Often considered a woman's most feared enemy, wrinkles are folds that appear on the surface of the skin (especially the face) in areas repeatedly stressed by the activation of underlying muscles. Usually, the first wrinkles appear around age 30, but in reality, facial skin starts becoming thinner (by about 1% per year) as early as from age 25, losing its natural elasticity and hydration.

The primary cause of wrinkles on our face is certainly the passage of time. In fact, as we age, our skin loses collagen and elastin, which ensure elasticity, hyaluronic acid, which keeps the skin hydrated, and sebum, causing skin dryness.

Other causes of facial wrinkles include excessive UV exposure (especially without applying sunscreen first), an unhealthy diet, stress, and the abuse of smoking and alcohol. Obviously, the signs of aging cannot be erased unless you resort to surgical and invasive solutions, but you can prevent the appearance of wrinkles and mitigate the decline, because a radiant and toned face is synonymous not so much with beauty, but above all with well-being.

There are a few small steps you can take to prevent the formation of these skin imperfections… No, we haven't reinvented the wheel, but it's always better to brush up on some good old habits!

Skin experts will never tire of reminding us how important it is to apply a generous amount of sunscreen to protect the skin from UVA and UVB rays before and during sun exposure.

A second good habit to follow is definitely not smoking or drinking alcohol; besides being a general health matter, it is an excellent way to reduce and prevent the formation of wrinkles on the face and neck.

Keeping the skin hydrated by drinking at least 2 liters of water a day and applying nourishing creams daily also ensures the skin gets the hydration it needs, preventing the face from becoming dehydrated and taking on a dull, matte complexion.

In addition to water intake, it is essential to remember to regularly follow a healthy and balanced diet, as besides being an excellent habit for the well-being of our entire body and our health, it becomes a good ally in preserving the beauty of our skin.

Last but not least: it is fundamental to try to distance yourself from sources of stress for the health of our skin (and more!). The question arises naturally: how? Between work, family, traffic, and a hectic life jumping from the supermarket to an aperitif with friends, finding a moment of calm seems to have become impossible. But fear not, your detox moment to free your skin (and mind) from daily stress can be found first and foremost in good rest. Let's remember, in fact, how important it is to sleep at least 7-8 hours a night. Additionally, it can become a good habit to dedicate time to relaxing activities like drinking herbal tea or performing facial massages to relax the muscles that remained tense during the day, obviously after a good cleansing!

The crown jewel of yoUBe's anti-aging treatment line is certainly Acmella Oleracea extract: a powerful active ingredient derived from the plant of the same name, a safe alternative to plastic surgery that significantly reduces wrinkles, giving facial skin a visibly rejuvenated appearance.
