Tips for Taking Care of Your Skin: 50 and over

February 21, 2013

It is never too late to slow the progression of aging and prevent further damage. In your 50s and above, cell turnover is very slow and the skin has trouble holding moisture. Dryness is a top problem in aging skin, as it magnifies lines and wrinkles. We have a few tips for taking care of your skin in your 50s and older.

It is important to keep up with the same skincare routine that you had in your 30s and 40s, although now you might be introduced to more permanent damage. Spider veins, hyperpigmentation and skin cancer are common skin woes that occur as you age. These need professional care and sometimes need lasers or surgery.

Hormonal changes are also a culprit in the skin’s aging process. Menopause can cause loss of skin elasticity and increase in the dullness of skin for women. There are many creams, serums and other products to help reduce the appearance of aging. Talk to your local dermatologist about what is best for your skin.

Skin health is an important part of total body wellness. Visit with one of our board certified physicians to get your skin the care it needs so it can reach its fullest, healthiest potential. Schedule an appointment with Knoxville Dermatology Group today at 865-690-9467.
