One day, I noticed my skin in the mirror wasn't what it used to be. Fine wrinkles were visible, and my skin felt less elastic. This could be a sign of aging. Skin aging doesn't suddenly begin at a certain age, but rather progresses gradually, starting in your mid-to-late twenties. Therefore, it's important to understand the causes of aging and take proactive measures.

Today, I will tell you about the causes of skin aging, signs of aging, how to manage skin aging in daily life, and even dermatological procedures!

1. Causes of skin aging

1) Natural aging

As we age, cell regeneration slows and collagen production decreases. This is a natural part of the aging process that doesn't happen to everyone.

 

2) UV exposure

Exposure to UV rays also contributes to skin aging. UV rays penetrate deep into the skin, destroying collagen and elastin. This leads to decreased elasticity, wrinkles, and other signs of skin aging, such as blemishes.

 

3) Oxidative stress

Oxidative stress is a major cause of skin aging. It's caused by excessive production of reactive oxygen species due to factors like fine dust and lack of sleep, and this is said to contribute to skin aging.

2. Signs of skin aging

Skin aging doesn't appear suddenly at a specific point, but rather becomes noticeable as changes in daily life accumulate. Signs of skin aging include the following.

 

1) Facial lines become blurred and elasticity decreases.

2) Wrinkles appear easily and do not disappear easily.

3) The cheeks are sunken and the jawline is saggy.

4) Pores appear to be getting larger.

5) Skin tone is dull and lifeless.

3. How to manage skin aging at home

They say it's important to start anti-aging skincare early. Here are some home care tips you can incorporate into your daily routine.

 

1) Use sunscreen

Because UV rays are the primary cause of skin aging, it's important to develop the habit of applying sunscreen regularly. It's important to apply a generous amount before going outside and reapply every two hours.

2) Managing lifestyle habits

Additionally, since the skin is affected by internal conditions, it is said that regularly consuming antioxidants and getting enough sleep can help manage skin aging.

 

3) Replenish skin moisture

Also, because a decrease in moisture in the skin can accelerate the aging process, it is said that you should thoroughly apply moisturizing cream or moisturizer after washing your face.
