The appearance of the first wrinkle brings new skincare concerns to any person and with these, the inevitable attempts to repair the damage done in time. If minimal prevention of skin aging never existed, little can be done to erase the signs of aging from your face, at least temporarily. 
A good anti aging skin treatment must address the main cause of aging. Most frequently, the aging causes are hormonal, environmental and genetic. Each factor and aging reason requires a different type of care, but this doesn’t mean that aging can become reversible with the use of the proper anti aging skin treatment. 
The usual anti aging skin treatment will never help erase a few years off your face, this is a damage that has been already done in the past and signs can show even after many years. The anti aging products you are using can improve the overall appearance by conditioning skin and providing nutrients that can help repair the damage made within the skin structure. But these effects don’t last for long and changes in appearance are only temporary. However, skin quality and its general look can improve significantly with a consistent anti aging skin treatment but total makeover is impossible with regular solutions.

Best skin care habit is prevention; prevention doesn’t include anti aging skin treatments but regular skin care like daily moisturizers. This should start as early as our 20s and continue consistently throughout our life. This way, the most part of the environmental and hormonal aging can be prevented but the genetic heritage will have its say eventually. Genetic aging is what everybody experiences at some point, regardless of aging prevention, life style or gender. 

The best and most recommended anti-aging skin treatment step, for any type of aging but especially the genetic type, is maintaining the skin hydrated.  At this stage, skin dries out, looses elasticity and gets thinner and this is why hydration is essential.  Apart from the topical hydrators, it is important to maintain a healthy diet and supply your body with the necessary vitamins and minerals that will prevent water loss at the cellular level. This internal + external approach is the most efficient anti aging skin treatment. Maintaining a healthy moisture balance can be done internally as well, through diet and supplements.  An optimal hydration at the cellular level will help cells function properly and promotes a healthy cell turnover.

There are 3 essential steps you need to follow in order to get results with your anti aging skin treatment: 

1.  Cleanse/tone:  use a hydrating cleanser that will remove dry cells and leave skin smooth

2.  Target/repair: use mild exfoliators to renew and powerful moisturizers to treat the wrinkles

3. Hydrate & protect: use a good hydrator that also has sunscreens and vitamins that protect against environmental damage  

Following the 3 steps of aging skincare and maintaining a healthy life style can minimize the visible effects of aging on our skin.  There is no such thing as a miraculous ingredient that will reverse your aging signs overnight. Ingredients in your regular anti aging skin treatment may differ and it is only a matter of choosing the most suitable ones for your needs and skin concerns. Most anti aging systems have hydrators and nutrients but the choice needs to be based on your type of skin (oily/dry/breakouts) and type of aging. Do not over-exfoliate or use too much moisturizer, this will not get faster results.  Avoid sun exposure and use SPF moisturizers even on cloudy days.  If you have sensitive skin, avoid harsh ingredients and concentrated formulas. Apply weekly vitamin facials, practice anti aging massage and allow yourself some time for relaxation, as stress is one of the factors that accelerates aging.
