Wrinkles and liver spots are obvious evidence of skin that has undergone some progressive degree of aging.

Whenever one starts to observe wrinkles or liver spots or both, one is superior advised to begin looking into serious measures to slow down and reverse skin ageing or else this can lead to more serious skin problems that can eventually lead to permanent skin conditions.

Lifestyle vices like cigarette smoking and alcohol consumption are also likely causes as these deliver extra toxins that the body might not be able to adequately remove in time, or overexposure to sunlight which leads to free radical attack and subsequent collagen damage. One can’t absolutely eliminate the effect of genetics on the skins health but in most cases it is easily overshadowed by the other likely causes.

Liver spots on the other hand have more precise causes, in most cases the action of intense sunlight leading to a free radical attack that in turn results to pigmentation. You cannot miss them: at first, little blotches of oddly-colored skin against your palish brown background that eventually grow to sizes that are noticeable.

Out of the many possible causes of liver spots, the most probable would be the accumulation of toxins in the skin caused by either a reduction in function of other waste-removing organs like the kidney and liver, or just an increase in harmful substances inside the body that it is no longer able to flush out on a regular basis. Free radical attacks are highly destructive in some cases leading to cell mutation and skin cancer. Assist your body in the cleansing process by minimizing your consumption of toxic substances present in cigarette smoke and alcohol. Shunning sunlight and avoiding the tanning salons can also help limit the amount of stress on the skin. Always remember to wear extra skin protection, either clothing or moisturizers that serve to hydrate the skin, or better yet sunscreens that offer SPF 45 or above sunlight shielding.

Other products available on the market that can help you in the restoring process are skin serums rich in Vitamin C which serve to neutralize free radical attack and rebuild the collagen skin structure. Serums work effectively because they penetrate deep into the skin cells to directly bring nutrients where it is needed and this is critical in healing critically damaged skin portions.

Lastly, it is vital to have sufficient water intake of up to 10 glasses a day to help with the metabolic processes that the body has to do to sanitize itself. A fitter, healthier body achieved through exercise is better equipped to deal with all the damage and assist healing. Doing all these things together, in combination, won’t be an immediate answer to your problems but it is sure to point you in the right direction towards healthy skin.
