What Causes Premature Ageing?
It’s only natural for everyone to age, & ageing-well is something we should all embrace. However, there are many factors that impact your skins health & cause it to prematurely age. Primary factors contributing to premature ageing are elements such as:
Photoageing (from the sun)
Pollution
Stress
Sleep deprivation
Diet
But to keep it short & simple, too much sun exposure is the biggest cause of premature ageing, research shows that the sun contributes to over 80% of the visible signs of ageing. Sun damage to your skin causes an inflammatory response & as a result it will start to break down the collagen in your skin.
