Did you know that every day, you may be engaging in habits and activities that compromise your skin and overall health, aging you in the process? From which skin care products to use to the foods you eat, these seemingly small decisions can end up making you look much older than your actual age.
Some of the main causes of skin aging are:
- Poor lifestyle habits (eg. smoking)
- Not enough sleep
- Overexposure to the sun
- High stress and anxiety levels
- Lack of physical activity and exercise
- Poor hydration and excessive consumption of alcohol and sugary beverages
But there is good news! While cosmetic treatments such as chemical peels, dermal fillers, and IPL photorejuvenation are certainly effective in keeping your skin healthy and youthful, there are simple anti-aging steps you can take from your own home to keep up a glowing and healthy appearance.

5 Anti-Aging Tips To Practice At Home For Youthful Skin
At our Kelowna skin clinic, we offer a wide range of non-surgical, anti-aging treatments, including Botox, Juvederm, Chemical Peels, and more, to keep your skin looking youthful, healthy, and vibrant.
While you may have to temporarily forego such treatments, here are some easy steps to take to care for your skin at home and keep those wrinkles at bay.
- Shield your skin. Exposure to the sun will prematurely age your skin and contributes to fine lines and wrinkles. One of the best skin care products you can buy is a sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or above and broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection. To add another layer of protection when you go outside, make sure to wear a broad brimmed hat and sunglasses! (Shop Sunscreen >)
- Keep your baths and showers short. A five minute shower will hydrate your skin, but staying in there for longer than 10 minutes will start to leach moisture away. In addition, remember to keep the temperature comfortably hot and not scalding. Hot water will strip your skin of its natural oils.
- Moisturize. Once you step out of the shower or bath, apply a layer of moisturizer to your body, as this will seal the moisture in your skin. Don’t forget about your face either! Use a facial moisturizer that is designed for your skin type - dry, oily, or combination. (Shop Moisturizers >)
- Stop smoking. In addition to increasing your risk for cancer and many other diseases, smoking reduces blood flow and prematurely wrinkles your skin, giving it a leathery appearance.
- Drink lots of water. Drinking an adequate amount of water throughout the day can keep your skin looking youthful and healthy. Not drinking enough can result in an increased appearance of lines and wrinkles, and cause your skin to look dry and dull. Ensure you drink at least 2 litres of water (8 glasses) per day to keep up a healthy and dewy appearance.
