Get Rid Of Wrinkles

Wrinkles are caused by collagen breakdown deep in your dermis, which is the layer below the skin's top layer. For you to prevent wrinkles, you need to stimulate collagen production while keeping free radicals such as the sun, stress and pollution from causing more damage. There are several methods to prevent wrinkles;
 

1. Sunscreen.
Sun damage is the number one cause of wrinkles, so if it's daylight outside, you should use sunscreen, no matter how cloudy it is. This goes for face, neck and you hands.

2. Vitamin A (retinoid) creams
Vitamins A keep wrinkles away and keep them from worsening. This is because vitamin A creams stimulate collagen renewal and prevent skin cells from breaking down. These creams should be used nightly. You could also eat foods that contain high levels of vitamins A

Vitamin A is found in:

    * liver (beef, pork, chicken, turkey, fish)
    * carrot (835 μg 93%)
    * broccoli leaf (800 μg 89%)
    * sweet potato (709 μg 79%)
    * spinach (469 μg 52%)
    * pumpkin (400 μg 41%)
    * collard greens (333 μg 37%)
    * egg (140 μg 16%)
    * apricot (96 μg 11%)
    * papaya (55 μg 6%)
    * mango (38 μg 4%)
    * pea (38 μg 4%)
    * broccoli (31 μg 3%)
    * milk (28 μg 3%)
 

Some vitamin A and vitamin A-like creams:
    * Retin-A
    * Differin
    * Renova
    * RoC Retinol Actif Pur Anti-Wrinkle Treatment

3. Exfoliate
Exfoliating once a week with a alpha-hydroxy acid (AHAs) or a microdermabrasion kit will remove dead cell layer and make the skin the soft. AHA's are glycolic or lactic acid formulated to increase collagen in sun-damaged skin. But do not use both and be careful not to over-exfoliate.

4. Antioxidants
Antioxidants are chemical compounds that together with other antioxidants neutralize free radicals. Free radicals are the unstable oxygen molecules produced by stress, sun light, pollution, bad eating habits and so on. In other words free radicals are really bad for your skin. Free radicals attack healthy skin cells and cause collagen breakdown, all of which lead to wrinkles. Some of the antioxidants are vitamin C, vitamins E, and coenzyme Q10 work together to neutralize free radicals.
