Why Your Skin Ages -

There are two factors that affect the aging of the skin: extrinsic and intrinsic.  Intrinsic or internal aging is biological aging that occurs with the passing of time. Extrinsic or external aging is the natural process of biological aging compiled with exterior causes such as sun exposure, air pollution, smoking, lifestyle, cosmetics and other allergens or lack of care. The most damaging of all of these is sunlight. In fact, it has been said that ninety percent of the aging of your skin is due totally to sun damage. If this is true, think of the control one has as to how much the skin actually ages.

Why is it that as we chronologically age, our ability to repair and recover from damage is much less? The primary reason is the damage caused to cells by free radicals. Free radicals are unstable molecules that take electrons from healthy molecules. This causes more free radicals damaging more cells.

What causes free radical damage?  Internal activity of free radicals is a natural process and the body will normally adjust to this. However, there are many outside factors that increase free radical damage - number one is the sun and many others include air pollution, smoking, foods, chemicals in everyday products, the air we breathe and chemical peels. So you can see that there is a constant barrage of intruders on our skin.  How does this age our skin? It is collagen that gives our skin its youthful appearance but unfortunately it is also a primary target for free radicals. Collagen fi ber, when healthy keeps the skin smooth and resilient, becomes very stiff and brittle when damaged. This begins to give the skin a more aged appearance. Combined with free radical damage are various triggers, such as UVA rays from the sun, which creates infl ammation within cells and collagen digesting enzymes. This process starts the formation of wrinkles.
