Drugs with retinol (Eukroma-Plus, Melanorm-HC Cream).
It is possible to stimulate the production of elastin with the help of drugs containing retinoids. Studies have shown that retinoids can increase elastin synthesis.

Supplements with collagen.
Our skin contains a lot of collagen. It is the connective tissue of hair, nails, muscles, ligaments and skin. After 25 years, the body produces fewer amino acids, which form the basis of collagen. Thus, they need to be compensated with anti-aging drugs. Collagen supplements increase the density of collagen in the skin, which reduces the likelihood of wrinkles.

Sunscreens.
The sun’s rays increase the level of vitamin D in our body, but can also have a negative effect on the skin. Ultraviolet protection can help prevent melanoma and reduce the risk of skin cancer. Excessive sun exposure also leads to wrinkles and dark spots. Solar radiation destroys collagen and elastin, making our skin unprotected. Therefore, it is important to choose a good sunscreen, preferably natural and non-toxic.

Humidifiers.
Regular application of moisturizer will help your skin stay beautiful and healthy. Dehydration, both internal and external, leads to oxidative stress. As a result, the skin loses its ability to regenerate and wrinkles are formed. Coconut oil is especially useful. It increases the amount of lipids on the surface of the skin and protects against harmful substances.
-
Vitamin A.
Foods that contain vitamin A are rich in retinol. Thus, enriching your diet with it, you nourish your skin. Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin, so it is important to eat these foods with fats.
-
Avoiding sugar.
Carbohydrate intake is one of the habits you need to give up for healthy skin. First, sugar “breaks down” collagen, which is highly undesirable. In addition, it weakens the immune system, making your body more vulnerable to bacteria that clog pores. All this provokes the appearance of wrinkles.

Balance of various foods.
The right ratio of protein, fat and carbohydrate foods is good for good skin. Also, you should eat foods rich in antioxidants. These include dark green leafy plants, algae, boiled tomatoes (rich in beta-carotene, which is converted to vitamin A) and yellow vegetables.
-
Water.
Drinking plenty of water prevents dry skin in addition to the effect of moisturizers. At the same time, water helps maintain the right balance between acidity and alkalinity. It increases blood flow to the skin surface, improves its density.

Scrub with sea salt.
This scrub promotes depilation and removes dead skin cells. It is also a simple and pleasant spa treatment that can be done in the shower every day. As a result, the skin will be more susceptible to the effects of moisturizer, as it will be able to penetrate deeper into the epidermis. These scrubs contain magnesium and potassium, which restore the skin and create an anti-aging effect.
