The results say that 90%of the premature ageing is due to the damage caused by the sun by exposing throughout the day. Melanie Palm, MD, Medical Director of Art of Skin MD in Solana Beach, California says "Premature ageing of the skin is caused by light exposure". This also includes infrared and visible light.

Your skin consists of 3 layers, epidermis (topmost), dermis (middle), the subcutis (lower most). When U.V rays strike on your skin. It goes into your dermis layer where it damages collagen fibres which stimulate the production of elastin and this elastin further leads to the production of enzymes named metalloproteinases. These enzymes rebuild the damaged collagen but incorrectly. This process goes all the time in the presence of U.V. rays. And hence incorrectly rebuilt skin leads to the generation of wrinkles.

So the result comes out to be to protect yourself from sun exposure or bright light.

Apply Sunscreens 

Applying sunscreen on your skin will prove to be very beneficial for the antiaging and also for skin cancer and regular application on your skin can prevent the ageing for a longer period of time. Dr. Palm suggests to use physical sunscreen (containing titanium oxide and zinc oxide)

Dr. Palm also says that there are some sunscreens that contain enzymes which can help to repair the previous damage. Also some studies showed that these products can enhance antiaging process.

Smoking makes your vessels of outermost skin narrow which hardens the flow of blood and creates hindrance in providing oxygen to the cells of skin which makes our skin dull. Smoking also damages the collagens and elastin fibers which are responsible for strengthening and for unwrinkled skin.
