How to keep ageing at bay
Here at The Dental Studio, we offer lots of choice when it comes to helping our patients look their best. As well as dental treatments, we also provide facial aesthetics in Colchester that help to slow the ageing process and help people to look at their most youthful and vibrant best. Here, we explore how people can help themselves to look younger, using facial aesthetics in Colchester as well as a range of self-help methods. 
Facial aesthetics
Facial aesthetics in Colchester have helped to transform the lives of many of our patients. Treatments such as anti-wrinkle injections can dramatically improve the appearance. They work by relaxing the facial muscles, which helps to smooth out lines and wrinkles. These treatments are minimally invasive and can be completed in a matter of minutes to reveal a new youthful look that lasts for several months.
Facial fillers are also a very successful means of keeping ageing at bay. They can give a much smoother appearance which allows our patients to look and feel rejuvenated.
The lips can be a significant indicator of ageing. They tend to become thinner as the years go by, and this can seriously dent a person’s confidence. A lip enhancement treatment can give the patient that full pouty look that is most often associated with youth and attractiveness. It is quick and easy to do and gives great results.
Hydrate
Many people do not drink enough water, and this has a direct impact on the ageing process. A person who is dehydrated can look much older than their years. This is because the skin needs water to be plump and youthful, and if it is not getting enough, then a person can develop lines and wrinkles that would not otherwise be there. Making a point of drinking around 8 glasses of water every day can transform the skin and help to support the results of other treatments like facial aesthetics.
Sun protection
Sun damage is one of the most easily preventable means of skin ageing. Many people believe that they only need to use sun protection when they are abroad on holiday, but anyone who is serious about taking care of their appearance should use it at home too. A high factor lotion or even sunblock should be worn all year round to ensure that the skin does not age prematurely. There are many cosmetic products such as foundation and BB cream that incorporate sun protection, so it may not always be necessary to purchase a separate product.
Consider diet
A person’s diet can have a big impact on how quickly they age. If they are typically consuming ready meals, convenience foods and takeaways on a regular basis, then that will be reflected in their skin. Eating a diet that is rich in fruits, vegetables and wholegrains can be instrumental in helping to hold back the years, as well as making a person feel great and helping them to enjoy better health in general. The old saying ‘you are what you eat’ is very true, so it is worth considering this when it comes to ageing!
