The skin doesn't bounce back when pressed

The skin may not bounce back when pressed because of skin aging, especially in the elderly. The skin elasticity is very poor, and it is difficult for the skin to bounce back when pressed. Lack of exercise and edema caused by drinking too much before going to bed can also cause sunken skin. Therefore, young people with poor skin elasticity should regulate their skin in time, because poor skin elasticity can lead to more bacterial infections.

There are two possibilities in this situation:

1. If you are not very old, it is very likely that your face is swollen due to lack of exercise, a preference for salty and spicy food, or drinking too much water before going to bed. The solution is to eat a light diet and exercise to sweat every day to expel excess water from the body.

2. If you are over a certain age, it may be due to the loss of collagen in the dermis that causes the skin to lack elasticity. Then you need to eat more foods containing collagen, or inject hyaluronic acid to maintain skin elasticity.

5 tips to stimulate collagen regrowth!

1. Supplement vitamin C

Don’t underestimate vitamin C, it is an essential component for collagen synthesis, especially it can promote the growth of collagen in the dermis. Usually we can choose foods such as citrus, tomatoes, kiwis, etc. to supplement vitamin C. If you don’t get enough vitamin C in your normal diet, you can also choose to take vitamin C supplements.

2. Vitamin E supplement

As an antioxidant, vitamin E can effectively solve the problem of collagen oxidation and protect the body's cells from damage by free radicals. Simply put, vitamin E is a magical tool that can stimulate the growth of collagen, delay aging, and reduce skin wrinkles!

In daily life, it is not difficult to supplement vitamin E. Almost all plant seeds are rich in vitamin E, such as the common nuts, peanuts, sesame seeds, etc. In addition, vitamin E is also found in fish fat and animal liver.

3. Take zinc supplements

Zinc is an element that plays an important role in skin repair and renewal. Adequate zinc intake helps prevent hormone imbalances, which not only helps regulate collagen production but also prevents the formation of acne. Normally, you can get zinc by eating more shellfish, beef and other red meat, or animal offal. Cheese, shrimp, oatmeal, etc. are also good zinc supplements.

4. Wear sunscreen

In fact, stimulating collagen regrowth requires efforts from many aspects, such as sun protection. Because the sun's ultraviolet rays can destroy the collagen in the dermis, causing the skin to become thinner, lose its original fullness and moisture, and make the skin dull and lusterless.

5. Eat less sweets

Because the collagen in the dermis pulls together to form a three-dimensional and tight network structure, our skin becomes firm and shiny. Sweets contain a lot of added sugar, and once the sugar is attached to collagen, it will make the collagen brittle and easy to break. The skin will start to age prematurely, develop fine lines and lose elasticity.
