Aging is a natural process, it is normal to see age-related changes on your face. But it is quite possible to delay skin aging, even without complex manipulations. And the sooner you start preventive measures, the more noticeable the effect will be.

Oxidative processes cannot be stopped once and for all. But you can prevent the excess formation of free radicals by eliminating the main triggers:
aggressive environmental factors, which include dry air, hard water, ultraviolet radiation;
unhealthy lifestyle, manifested in the absence of sports, prolonged stress, disturbed sleep patterns;
nutritional errors;
improper skin care;
bad habits;
muscle spasm.
Prevention of skin aging
Today, maintaining the beauty and health of your skin is easier than ever. In the arsenal, there are a series of anti-aging products, facial massagers, and dietary supplements that show good results, even without cosmetic procedures. The main thing is to approach the solution of the problem in a complex way.
Establish a daily routine and nutrition, and add more antioxidants to the diet that block the action of free radicals. Vitamins E, C, selenium, betacarotene, and bioflavonoids do a good job with this. It is also important to eat foods rich in collagen (meat, fish, eggs, nuts), because it, along with elastin, is the main building protein of the skin.
Provide quality basic care that suits your skin type. Eliminate harsh cleansers and alcohol tonics if they were in your beauty routine. Use creams with peptides, acid serums, vitamin C, and niacinamide products to renew cells, strengthen the protective barrier and reduce wrinkles.
Master facial massage: it eliminates puffiness, stimulates lymph flow, tightens the oval of the face, and relaxes spasms, eliminating wrinkles and creases. It can be done simply with your hands, as well as with the help of roller or impulse massagers.
Visit a beautician for anti-aging treatments: for example, hyaluronic acid bio revitalization, a course of peels, etc.
Add physical activity to your life. It can be stretching, Pilates, or dancing. It is not necessary to exhaust yourself with hours of cardio or heavyweights in the gym – choose the method that will bring pleasure.
