Wrinkles in Young Age: When you smile looking at yourself in the mirror, a slight glow appears on the face. But have you noticed recently that along with your smile, some lines are also appearing on the face? We are talking about wrinkles, which were once considered only a sign of aging, but now they have started appearing in youth itself.

Dr. Anchal says that wrinkles do not come only due to age, but our daily routine and wrong lifestyle are also responsible for it. Let us know what are those habits that make your skin old in youth itself.

Lack of sleep

If you use mobile till late at night and sleep for less than 6 hours every day, it affects the repair process of your skin. When you do not get enough sleep, the production of collagen decreases, which reduces the elasticity of the skin and wrinkles start appearing early.

Not protecting yourself from the sun's harsh rays

Going out in the sun without applying sunscreen is the biggest enemy of the skin. UV rays damage the inner layers of the skin, causing wrinkles and pigmentation to appear prematurely.

Smoking and alcohol consumption

Cigarettes and alcohol take away the natural moisture of the skin and increase free radicals in the body. Due to this, the skin quickly becomes lifeless and loose and wrinkles start appearing before time.

Wrong diet and lack of water

Eating fast food, processed food and sweets in large quantities increases inflammation and oxidative stress in the skin. On the other hand, if the body does not get enough water, the skin becomes dry and starts looking old quickly.

Taking excessive stress

Always being worried and stressed can leave straight lines on your face. Stress increases the level of a hormone called cortisol, which causes the skin to age faster.

How to protect yourself?

• Have 7-8 hours of sleep daily
• Apply sunscreen before stepping out
• Avoid smoking and drinking
• Stay hydrated and eat a healthy diet
• Manage stress through meditation and yoga

Ignoring wrinkles considering them to be just a result of age can be your biggest mistake. If you are seeing fine lines and wrinkles on your skin in your youth, then pay attention to your habits in time.
