Some people only give their skin some thought when a problem occurs. Whether we have wrinkles, a decrease in elasticity, or uneven skin tone, the effects of aging are exposed for everyone to see.

Unfortunately Mother Nature takes her toll on that which is most exposed – our faces. If you do not take good care of your skin you will unfortunately pay the price sooner than later. Our faces, including your neck and décolletage areas, are the most prone to the damaging effects of the sun and time. How we manage the aging process is increasingly more important. The statistics show that people are living longer in the developing world.

Currently people age 60 and over represent 11.4% (794 million) of the world’s population and this figure will rise in 2050 to 20% (2 Billion). By 2015 there were more people age 60 and over than 14 and under. This is according to Professor S Ratan from Aarhus University in Denmark. (Article in edition V111 of Longevity.) This, 225% rapid increase in the 60+ jump between 2010 and 2050 will determine 70% by your lifestyle and 30% by your genetics. This means no more blaming your parents for your flaws!

With these facts available to us, it will become more and more important to pay close attention to your lifestyle choices. Adhering to a healthy diet and choosing the rights type of treatments that will help to improve your skin (instead of just hiding your age) will be imperative.
