She listed other habits to avoid in order to slow down the aging process.

“A diet high in carbohydrates contributes to decreased skin tone and makes it saggy, so it's better to focus on vegetables, proteins, and healthy fats. Smoking and excessive alcohol consumption also negatively affect the body,” explained the dermatologist.

A lack of water also slows down metabolism, so it is recommended to drink at least one and a half liters of fluids per day.

“It's important to mention the lack of sleep as well. Poor sleep quality accelerates skin aging, preventing it from recovering after exposure to environmental stressors. Going to bed before 10 PM is one of the crucial factors that improve overall health,” emphasized the expert.

According to her, women should always remove their makeup before going to bed. Additionally, it is essential to choose a soap that meets the specific needs of your skin when washing your face to avoid dryness. Skipping sunscreen also contributes to premature aging.
