Premature ageing can be reduced at a young age. To preserve your youthful appearance for as long as possible, you should take care to avoid the main causes of ageing in good time.

These are the four main factors that age you visually:

 

Weight. It's nice to be slim when you're young. The elasticity of youthful skin makes your body and face look young in equal measure. The older you get, the more you have to concentrate on maintaining a round and full face. Unfortunately, this can be to the detriment of your figure, but a round and full face does not show wrinkles. If you try to keep your schoolgirl figure, you will remain thin in the face and get wrinkles faster.

The optimum balance between face and figure is achieved with a body mass index (BMI) of between 20 and 25. It is important to keep this stable and not allow it to fluctuate greatly due to rapid dieting. Constant rapid weight loss weakens the muscles and causes notches around the mouth and nose.

 

Stress. Stress and worries contribute significantly to making your face look old. It's less about the stressful situations you find yourself in and more about how you deal with them. Don't let stress and anger get to you too much; you can achieve this by consciously relaxing, meditating, getting enough sleep and smiling. Put on a good face.

 

Nutrition. A balanced diet and protein-rich food keep the body young for longer. A lack of protein and too many carbohydrates give the face a pasty appearance and the jawline loses its definition. Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids help to build the cell structure.

 

Exposure to sunlight. We already know that too much sunbathing ages the skin. That's why sun cream with a high sun protection factor is probably the best and cheapest anti-wrinkle cream there is.
