Very often the hand is for the woman of age. And this is not surprising, as they are often influenced by external factors. Poor quality household cleaners and tap water do a lot of damage to delicate skin. Sun, hot sun, wind or cold weather also contributes to premature aging of the skin. This is why it is important to take good care of your hands by regularly performing anti-aging therapies.
The causes of aging hands
Age related changes on the skin of the hands are inevitable and they are related to a number of reasons at the same time. Let's list the main ones:
- Unfavorable climatic conditions.This is considered one of the most common. Furthermore, negative natural factors always affect the skin, regardless of the season. In summer, under the influence of high temperature and ultraviolet radiation, skin loses moisture, dryness and dullness. In the cold season, low temperatures and cold winds also contribute to early wilting of the plant. In addition, when hypothermia occurs, blood circulation slows down, less important substances enter the limbs. If you look closely at the hands of people who have been exposed to a lot of cold or sun exposure, you will notice the bulging, flaky capillaries, redness, and pigmentation disorders. The skin in this state ages rapidly and becomes flabby.
- Natural aging process.Two compounds responsible for skin elasticity - elastin and collagen. During adolescence, the body produces these substances in sufficient quantities, but over the years their synthesis slows down. At the same time, the metabolism starts to slow down, and the condition of the pulse worsens. Skin lacks moisture and is gradually depleted. The tissue regeneration is no longer going as fast as it once was.
- Change the concentration of a hormone.The female body is subject to a strong hormonal fluctuation and this cannot help but affect the condition of the skin. The process of withering is typical for pregnancy and lactation, but they are especially noticeable during menopause. This is due to a sharp drop in estrogen. When this hormone is deficient, the lipid barrier is broken, and the skin becomes unable to defend itself against the damaging effects of many factors. As a result, the accelerated aging process begins.
- Household chemicals.The modern market has a wide variety of detergents and cleaning agents. And women are exposed to all of these substances on a regular basis. Furthermore, the danger is hidden not only by means of cleaning the house (but at least, you can protect yourself with special gloves). The harmful ingredients are even contained in a liquid soap or seemingly harmless wet towel. They destroy the protective lipid layer that prevents moisture loss. The skin dries out and begins to fade faster.
