I was watching my favorite TV show and, suddenly, a pathetic ads popped on the screen bragging about an instant wrinkle remover. If I was gullible enough, I could have easily gave the network a ring and ordered some because of those ugly deep eye wrinkle I already have. I am sure many of you have this question as well, "Do instant wrinkle removers really exist?"
Wrinkles do not appear instantly
First, you ought to realize that wrinkles do not just appear suddenly on your skin. They actually develop over a long period of time. Unlike some illnesses where symptoms may suddenly appear upon contraction of the infectious microorganisms, wrinkles are a result of the gradual decrease in the collagen content of the skin layers. They just do not pop out like that pathetic TV ad I just told you.
There is no such thing as an instant wrinkle removing. It was simply a typical hollow corporate strategy aimed at increasing claims. I wonder when these companies could be more honest with the public about their products.
Let me share with you this
A special type of protein, called collagen, is primarily responsible in making our skin elastic. Collagen is developed naturally by our body. But as we get older, we lose substantial amount of collagen bundles. This explains the onset of wrinkles on our skin. The body has its own way of regenerating collagen loss. But this ability is weakened because of the natural aging process. The further loss of elasticity can be hastened because the essential nutrients promoting collagen production are not sufficiently available.
We eat less of those fruits and vegetables known as rich sources of collagen producing substances. And, of course, we have the ever present pollutants and harmful chemicals. Aside from exposure to elements that carry those harmful chemicals, our eating habit also plays a key role in the rapid accumulation of those toxins.
Through various oxidation processes, these toxins are converted into free radicals. Free radicals damage the cells and tissues. They also inhibit the cellular growth and regeneration. The same applies to collagen production.
What now?
So, what am I trying to tell you here? Simple. Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables that abundantly contain micro nutrients and other essential elements. These provide the ideal environment for the rapid production of collagen.
Eat also those which are rich in anti-oxidants to prevent further damage to healthy cells and tissues. They are normally found in fruits and vegetables with dark and bright colors.
Use of selected skin care creams is also essential in preventing the development of wrinkles. But you have to be choosy when buying them. Buy those which contain only natural ingredients. Products heavily laden with chemicals may irritate your skin, notwithstanding that many were found to contain carcinogens.
Do not buy those which also contain preservatives. Buy instead those which richly contain essential nutrients such as Cynergy TK, Hyaluronic acid, Nano-Lipobelle H EQ10 and amino acids. Phytessence Wakame, an exotic kelp Japanese use for a long time, is widely considered to contain collagen producing substances.
Be diligent though. Wrinkles neither appear suddenly nor do they disappear instantly. Combine all these helpful tips with a healthy lifestyle, balanced diet, avoidance of soda, caffeine and alcohol and stress.
Roll them into one with diligence and extra patience. There are lots of other anti aging skin care products you can use to get rid of your wrinkles. But, instant wrinkle remover? Sorry, for there is none.
