Firming the skin

Why do we care about firm skin?

If your skin is losing its plumpness and not feeling silky smooth, that's typical of most women. Over time, the skin ages and becomes wrinkled. Additionally, bad habits, inadequate care and environmental influences can aggravate imperfections. However, there are many ways that, despite neglect and the passage of time, you can restore skin elasticity and enjoy a youthful appearance for longer.

The reasons for the poorer quality of the skin

In order to protect your own skin from losing its elasticity, it is important to understand what is deteriorating its condition and appearance. The main responsible is the completely natural aging process, which cannot be avoided, and it begins to progress even from the age of 25. Then, the biological activity of the body's cells decreases, regenerative processes slow down and resistance to environmental stress decreases. In practice, it can be seen that the skin becomes thinner, gray and loses its firmness, and the oval of the face begins to distort. These changes are most noticeable on the cheeks, forehead, chin, neck, cleavage, forearms and the outer sides of the hands.

Hormonal issues, especially the menopause, also have a negative effect on sagging skin.
