No matter what age you are, you can help keep your skin looking healthy by taking proper care of it. As the single largest organ in the body, it certainly deserves our tender, loving care. With so many daily elements present that damage our precious epidermis regularly and severely, we need to be very careful of the products we use and how we protect our skin. Here are some tips to help your protect and nurture it, and hopefully prevent having to consider invasive surgical procedures to rejuvenate your skin. These are non surgical facelift options.

- wash your face twice per day.
Ideally, you should wash your face when you wake up in the morning and again in the late afternoon. Many people opt to do this second treatment before bed, but it is far more effective to do this near the dinner hour. Your skin gets very oily in the run of the day after being exposed to a wide variety of damaging elements and with our daily doses of exercise and time spent in the sun. During the evening hours, we spend considerably less time being physically active, and over night as well, therefore our skin becomes less oily and can be left longer without cleansing.

- use a daily moisturizer
Not only will regular moisturizing help give your skin a healthy glow, many act as barriers between the epidermis and harmful elements like pollution and air borne bacteria.

- always use sunblock SPF 25+ during the summer months and 15+ in the winter or cooler months
With all the damage that has occurred in the ozone layer, the sun’s UV rays are beating upon us with full strength. UV rays are responsible for damages that occur in the sub-layers of the skin. Even in the winter and on cloudy days, sun damage is still a very real risk.

Protecting your skin is the first step to keeping it looking healthy. Sun and element damage are the leading causes behind the signs of premature aging. By following the tips outlined above, you’ll be able to avoid signs of aging and prevent extensive damage from occurring.
