Let's try to start our conversation by looking back a bit, back to the past. On how you looked some time ago. Memories, of course, it's wonderful, but it's better to resort to the help of photographs, they will help us with more accuracy and in all details to restore all the memories of the past years. So, the face in the photo is 20 years old. You are looking at a girl who is full of youth, enthusiasm, almost without flaws on the skin, without any signs of wrinkles beginning.
It's time to return to reality, what it would not be, and look from the photo to what the mirror shows you every morning. On the perfection of the skin can no longer be a question, here everything is quite the opposite. It's time to show only one complaint to the skin; about the beginning of wrinkles have also long been forgotten, because this process, which has been developing for several years and attempt to somehow fight it, eclipsed all the first experiences with respect to physiological skin changes. Throughout the face for unknown reasons, here and there appear some folds, one of which is the second chin. And when only he managed to appear! It's just amazing ...
So, it's time to drastically change something, until it's quite late. Undoubtedly, if you are a secured woman and can afford a huge series of periodic operations in order to solve the problem with the skin of the face. Many people resort to such solutions to this problem. The only drawback here is the short-term effect of the procedures. And after a while the procedures will be required again. But not everyone has the opportunity to use the services of plastic surgeons, and it is not necessary to start with this. Let's start with what's closer to the mirror - from our face. Let's try to get to know him better and learn about the physiological changes that inevitably occur with the age of the face.
Muscles of the face
The number of muscles on the human face is 57. Like everything in the body, over time, muscles lose their shape, they become less elastic and elastic than they were before. And, since the form of the person itself depends on the state of his muscles, then she too suffers from similar metamorphosis. Pay attention to the frontal part, lips, chin. We every day try to nourish the skin with new and new creams, hoping that we will delay the appearance of new wrinkles, but deformation of the face is also the cause of wrinkles, and it can not escape from it.
The force of gravity on the earth acts on all objects. While we are young, our muscles are in fine tonus and perfectly cope with the attraction of the Earth, but with age, muscle tone is significantly reduced, and the force of gravity begins to win.
The skin is unable to fully resist and gradually begins to crawl, on which the condition of the forehead and upper eyelid directly depends. It is at this moment that the wrinkles on the forehead begin to appear and the effect of the swimming upper eyelid appears.
The so-called "bags under the eyes" appear due to changes in the tone of the muscles of the cheeks and eyes. These muscles are one of the most important in terms of anatomy.
Nasal skeletal muscles are also no exception and are also subject to age-related changes, resulting in a gradually spreading nose - this is inevitable for any of us.
The central part of the face also slowly but surely slides downward, which causes some displacement of the parts of the face in the center.
The corners of the mouth, cheeks, chin and everything that is below the lip line, begins to gradually strive down.
And the neck muscles, which, along with all the other muscles, also undergo physiological changes, stretching and promoting the formation of the very notorious second chin.
It turns out that the appearance undergoes all these not very pleasant changes, mainly, due to physiological changes in the muscular corset.
Leather
It is known that age does not spare not only the muscles, but also the skin on the face.
There is a percentage change between the horny and basal layers of the skin. The basal layer becomes much thinner, the skin loses its elasticity, softness. The stratum corneum gives the skin a firmness and stiffness.
The skin loses its elasticity due to changes occurring in the elastic fibers.
The complexion inevitably suffers because the supply of necessary blood to the skin becomes unstable, there is no longer that constant inflow that was before.
Another unpleasant skin problem is dehydration. The reason is mucopolysaccharides. While there are enough of them in the skin layer, it copes with water metabolism, and when their quantity is significantly reduced, the skin is not able to solve this problem on its own.
Gradually, not only any separate layers of skin are thinned, but the skin itself.
Fat cells located on the face under the skin layer, shrink. The same process occurs on the neck and cheeks. But in other parts of the body the amount of fatty tissue increases.
Due to their physiological changes and violations of the normal functions of the layers, the skin gradually loses its protective properties.
Conclusion
So, now we can answer the question "why after 40 years there are problems with the skin of the face?". This is a consequence of the fact that facial muscles lose their tone, the skin gradually fades, and we inevitably come across the manifestations of these physiological changes.
The skin relaxes, the oval of the face changes, the forehead becomes horizontal, and the area between the eyebrows is vertical wrinkles; the lower eyelid descends, wrinkles around the eyes and so-called "bags under the eyes" appear; The folds between the nose and the lips become more inviting, the rays pointing downward appear around the corners of the lips; there is also a double chin.
Yes, these age changes are inevitable, as we have stated several times, but to support your body, as long as possible to remain young - it's in your power. And if there is a desire, then the success will not take long.
