Skin Care - Premature Aging of Skin

The reasons why skin gets aged can be divided as internal and external factors. Internal factors include inability of the skin to retain moisture, decrease in Elastin production, less turnover of new skin cells etc… External factors include the lifestyle and environment of the individual like smoking, exposure to sun, exposure to cold, poor diet, too much stress, lack of exercise etc…

According to ayurveda, premature aging of the skin is caused due to the aggravation of vata dosha, which naturally increases with age.
