The aging process starts from our late 20’s and becomes more visible and apparently hard to control, as years go by.
Aging explained
What is important to understand is that aging implies more than an aging skin. We have everything that’s beneath it, that keeps our face contoured and lifted. We have: bone, muscles, ligaments and fat.
Apparently it may look that going for an in office procedure for fillers, collagen biostimulators and Botox will resolve the aging problem, but, in reality, it is not that easy.
There are areas on the face that we can’t control with fillers or surgery, like the entire structure of our cranium, forehead, brow bone, bone around and inside the eyes and so on.
These areas can’t be treated with plastic surgery and the only way to keep them as young as possible is to prevent them from aging.
How to Get Younger-Looking Skin without Surgery?
From the inside, from sustaining the inner production of collagen at an optimal level and from preventing the bone resorption.
How To Restore Collagen In The Face?
There are two factors important for the synthesis of collagen. Collagen peptides and Vitamin C.
1.Collagen production
Collagen is found in every anatomical structure of the face, thus, if we take care to have an optimal collagen production, the bones, muscles, ligaments and skin will very slowly, closely to never age.
As we age, collagen production decreases, thus we need a constant optimal material and catalysts to ensure that the body keeps building enough collagen. If we don’t provide the body with peptides and Vitamin C, it will enter in a deficit and thus, the collagen production will decrease.
Collagen Peptides
I usually recommend collagen peptides from a grass fed bovine source. The optimal dosage is 20g per day.
One trusted brand is Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides. It is a flavorless collagen powder that can be easily added to the daily morning coffee without changing it’s taste. Over time, you will notice a more radiant and youthful skin and regrowth of hair in areas you thought are permanently lost. These outside outcomes are a sign that the product is working on the inside as well (muscles,ligaments,bones)
Vitamin C
Vitamin C is as a powerful antioxidant in our body, protecting us from the oxidative damage of freeradicals.
Vitamin C 1000 mg per day is the second ingredient in collagen production. To assemble the collagen peptides, Vitamin C is needed. You will notice the added benefit of a more hydrated,plump and radiant skin.
One product that I highly recommend in time released Vitamin C 1000mg from Solaray.
2.Prevention of bone loss
As we discussed, aging implies bone reabsorption as well,which means loss of bone tissue. To prevent this from happening, you need at least 2000UI of Vitamin D per day. Vitamin D help the absorption of calcium from the gut in the bones. Having enough vitamin D, will allow the bone to maintain the facial bone structure like you are forever young.
Just these three supplements, together with a balanced diet high in vegetables, legumes, olive oil and staying away from processed, fried or sugary foods, will be all you need to keep yourself young. Enjoy!
