20 May What are some of the most Obvious Signs of Ageing?
Ageing affects us all, some more than others, but as the ageing process changes the way you look it can also affect the way you feel. The signs of ageing on your face are the most apparent because you can’t cover them up with clothing. As you age, your skin loses its youthful elasticity causing those unwanted sags and wrinkles.
Take our quiz, and find out if you are you ready for surgery?
1. Baggy upper eyelid skin
The eyes are the most expressive part of your body. With ageing your eyes can appear hooded and heavy, making you look tired all of the time. In its early stages, excess eyelid skin can even affect your makeup routine – eye shadow and eyeliner – no longer look the way they used to.
2. Lower eyelid bags
This is similar to the previous sign of ageing – it is so hard to avoid and to cover up. With this one as well, the bags under your eyes make you look like you’ve been up all night, even if you slept like a baby. If you naturally have dark circles under your eyes this can emphasis your tired appearance.
3. Deep nasolabial folds (laugh lines)
This might be the most unfortunate sign of ageing. All the years of smiling and laughing have turned on you. These deep folds running between your nose and mouth can be challenging to treat and can have a profound effect on your appearance.
4. Jowls
As the facial tissues droop with age they can overhang the jaw line and produce the appearance of jowls. That sharp jawline of your youth becomes softer and less defined, the drooping tissues change your face from a youthful oval shape to a square aged appearance.
5. Neck laxity (Turkey Neck)
The skin on the neck can get particularly saggy and wrinkly with age. Sometimes these issues can even create the appearance of a double chin. Your beautiful necklaces may not look quite the same when framed by the aged appearance of your neck.
It’s not too late! At any age, there are a number of ways that you can reduce the appearance of sags and wrinkles. To explore your options come and have a chat with Dr Guy Watts Specialist Plastic and Cosmetic Surgeon and he can determine a treatment plan that is right for you!
