By age 60, you’ll either really appreciate the early care you’ve given your skin or you will clearly notice the effects of neglect that you have given your skin. As hormone levels are now returning to normal, the collagen and elastin levels are significantly lower than their youthful levels, and the tissue that attaches the skin to the bone is deteriorating causing the skin to continue to lose tone and firmness. As we continue to age, everything tends to slow down in the body, including blood circulation and the natural exfoliating process of the skin. The result….. skin that looks sluggish, lifeless and dull. Intensive topical moisturizer, tretinoin, monthly facials and chemical peels will help restore your skin’s radiance (Tip: capillaries are more fragile, so you may want to ease up on facial scrubs). While it is never too late to take care of your skin, the damage you already have will be difficult to reduce without special medical treatments such as Botox, dermal filler, anti-aging laser treatments, or perhaps more invasive resurfacing procedures to help you attain your skin care goals. In addition to helpful aesthetic treatments, regular exercise will help keep good circulation in the skin and body to retain that healthy vibrancy!
