- Wear Sunscreen
Make sure you apply a broad-spectrum, water-resistant sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 daily to prevent dark spots and wrinkles. You can protect your skin from the sun’s harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays by wearing sunscreen while outdoors. Sun exposure can increase your skin cancer risk.
- Take Care of Your Skin
Aging is often visible on your skin. Signs of aging include dark spots, fine lines, thin skin, and wrinkles. You can reverse or slow aging by taking care of your skin. Try exfoliating your skin, for example, with beads or chemical peels. This process helps slough off dead skin cells, revealing a smoother complexion underneath.
Too much exfoliation, however, can aggravate your skin. Consult a dermatologist about what exfoliation method is best for your skin type. They can recommend treatments for more dramatic results than you would get from home remedies, such as an exfoliating peel with glycolic or trichloroacetic acid.
Some evidence suggests a topical vitamin C serum can offer several health benefits, such as preventing sun damage. A study published in 2017 found that using a topical vitamin C serum daily for three weeks can improve skin texture and reduce wrinkles on the face and neck.
It’s also important to moisturize your skin regularly. Apply a gentle lotion within a few minutes of getting out of the shower or bath to lock in moisture.
