Skin care is important at every age, but your needs will change depending on which decade of life you are in.
In your 20’s — skin is often in peak form in your 20’s. Collagen and elastin production remain strong and skin has structure and youthful smoothness. Make sure you are:
🧴using daily sunscreen
🧴moisturizing daily
🧴washing twice daily
🧴Exfoliating weekly
In your 30’s — In your 30’s you see a decrease in collagen and elastin production. Your skin cell turnover also starts to slow. There can also start to be volume loss in the fat pads of your face. In your 30’s Make sure you are:
🧴Using vitamin C or E in your skincare routine
🧴Start using retinol/retinoids to prevent fine lines and wrinkles
🧴Using hyaluronic acid to boost elasticity
🧴Start strategic neuromodulators to prevent early wrinkle development
In your 40’s — in your 40’s you have decreased oil production which can lead to dry skin. Because of a reduction in estrogen production you also see thinner and more brittle skin. In your 40’s make sure you are:
🧴Using an anti-aging serum
🧴Continue healthy lifestyle choices that will reflect on your skin
🧴Make monthly appointments to your esthetician to dial in your skincare routine
🧴Laser treatments and microneedling are great to start
In your 50’s — Collagen and elastin production sharply decline and the signs of aging are no longer avoidable. You will start to notice fine lines and wrinkles, sagging skin, and inflammation that can show as puffiness under the eyes. In your 50’s make sure you are:
🧴Keeping up with your preventative routine
🧴Add peptides to your routine to boost collagen production
🧴Utilizing injectables and fillers to reduce wrinkles and add volume
🧴RF microneedling or a thread lift can help with concerns
In your 60’s and beyond — this is where your routines from previous decades will shine! Skin becomes thinner and more prone to damage. Those wrinkles become deeper and discoloration more prominent. Make sure you are:
🧴Maintaining your skincare routine
🧴Having regular skincare appointments with your esthetician
🧴Consider a skin thickening agent like products containing copper peptides
