I'M ONLY 39! WHY DOES IF FEEL LIKE MY FACE HAS AGED OVERNIGHT?
I can relate personally. When dramatic changes occur in our late 30s and early 40s, I inform my clients that my experience from age 39 to 40 was significantly more challenging than from age 49 to 50. The transition at the end of our 30s marks the beginning of substantial changes. By the time individuals reach their late 40s and early 50s, they have had a decade to accept and discover these changes; although difficult, it can be manageable. One begins to make peace with the inevitable effects of aging. Initially, the signs of aging seem to appear suddenly. There is a noticeable decline in skin elasticity, eyelids become droopy or puffy (particularly in the mornings), lines start to emerge visibly, and changes in the neck area become apparent.
Aging also can come with these new spots. You had freckles, but now they have multiplied! The realization hits hard: I have a busy life with a husband, kids, and a hectic job. Accepting that we are aging and need to change feels like an added chore. We resist it like a child refusing broccoli. The truth is, we are getting older, but we're not ready! Ignoring it won't help; the mirror will remind us eventually. Thoughts race: What can I do now to stop this? Guilt kicks in, why didn't I use sunscreen every day? I knew this day would come, but why today? I promise to improve my skincare routine tomorrow. Now What? Book an appointment and I can teach you how to look 10 years younger without Botox!
First, WELCOME to aging, it happens to the best of us, I got you, it is normal, the better your skin care, the better you will age. Be proud that you have reached this milestone and set out a plan to evolve with whatever life throws you. You cannot simply inject non aging into the skin… Ok so maybe Botox can…ok and fillers too, but that can get expensive. If you choose that route, that is fine too, but I recommend holding out until you have GREAT SKIN! The result will be 10X better in the long run if you decide to combine Botox/Injectable with your daily skin care. The goal is to age naturally, keep at it, like the warrior you are. Fight off that free radical damage, smooth out those lines, battle those blemishes with confidence, but be kind to your skin you only get one. What you do today will matter in the long run and have great improvements as you age. I always say skin care is like exercising, you do not work out for a month and hope the changes last forever. Skin care is like exercising you continue to shift and change while your skin shifts and changes. My expertise is in seeing the whole picture, educating, and guiding my clients to the ultimate change and lifelong skin vitality. Put in the work and you will have no regrets. Once you become a regular client, I am always in your back pocket for advice and guidance.
