We all want to look our best, and often times that means fighting signs of aging. Dr. Paul Pin offers plastic surgery procedures that help your face appear younger and more rejuvenated. While a surgeon can achieve excellent results, there is plenty you can do to fight signs of aging yourself.
The team at our Dallas, TX plastic surgery center would like to offer a few tips on how you can look your youngest. We can discuss more options for fighting advanced age during a consultation at our practice.
Add Highlights to Your Hair
If your hair is dulling in color or going grey, don’t just dye it. Consider highlights too. Adding highlights can add flair to your hair and brightness to your complexion. Even if you have blonde hair, the mix of light and dark can really work wonders.
Talk to Your Hair Stylist
On the note of hair, you may want to consider a new hairstyle to help you look more with-the-times. Even if your new hairdo isn’t trendy or chic, perhaps a careful reconsideration of your bangs can help hide signs of aging, such as covering lines and wrinkles on the forehead.
Whiten Your Teeth
Your smile can say a lot about your age, or at least how people perceive your age. If you have stained teeth or discolored teeth, it can make you look years older. Consider teeth whitening or other cosmetic dentistry treatments to help your smile look its best.
Rethink Your Makeup Routine
Changing your makeup routine can make a major difference. We recommend going for a navy eyeliner rather than black eyeliner to help brighten your eyes. For age spots, splotches, and blemishes, consider an opaque foundation set with translucent powder.
Curl and Lengthen Your Eyelashes
Curling your eyelashes can bring out the vibrancy of your eyes. You may also want to consider some mascara to add some length and prominence to your eyelashes. Little touches like this can go a long way.
Consider a Pedicure
Your feet can have an impact on your age, particularly when summertime comes around and your feet are more likely to be seen. Because of this, it’s a good idea to undergo a pedicure every month to help your feet look their best.
Protect Your Skin from the Sun
Sun exposure can lead to sun damage, spots, lines, and wrinkles. It’s important to protect your skin from the sun. Wear sunblock when you are outdoors, and be sure to cover up with long sleeves when out in the sun. A hat with a brim and sunglasses can also be helpful protection from the sun.
Eat a Healthy Diet
It should come as no surprise that a healthy diet helps you look younger. Be sure to eat whole foods when possible, with an emphasis on fresh vegetables, fruits, lean protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and whole grains. Avoid processed foods, trans fats, and excessive sugar.
Stay Hydrated
Water is essential for good health, so be sure to stay hydrated. Have several glasses of water over the course of your day. Avoid juices and sodas as hydration since they have empty calories you simply don’t need.
Exercise Regularly
Staying trim and fit is essential for looking your youngest. Be sure to exercise regularly every week. You don’t need to be in the gym 24/7, but a mix of cardio, strength training, and wellness activities such as yoga or pilates can help you de-stress, look younger, and feel energized.
Get a Good Night’s Sleep
Rest gives your body a chance to recover and repair itself, and allows you to look refreshed. Do your best to get a good night’s sleep every night. Not only will you look younger, you’ll feel much better as well.
