Did you know? The smoke and the tar found in cigarettes take away the nutrients and oxygen that are needed for your skin to remain healthy. This includes weakening the collagen and fibres that are needed for healthy skin. These fibres are what give your skin strength and flexibility. Smoking strips the collagen and fibres from your skin and replaces them with the chemicals and toxins (all 4000 of them) that are found in cigarettes. Smoking also causes the blood vessels in your skin to slow down. This takes away essential nutrients that the skin needs in order to remain healthy, such as vitamin A and vitamin C.
Well, that’s the bad news. The good news is that even as a smoker there is a lot you can do to maintain your skin in reasonable condition. You might not be willing or ready to quit just yet, but you are still concerned about premature aging and wrinkles from smoking.
There are many skincare products and medical treatments that can help smokers ameliorate the look of their skin.
