Enhance Skin Elasticity & Look Younger

By A Mystery Man Writer

Poor elasticity in ageing skin can lead to lines, wrinkles and sagging. Thankfully, advances in skincare and new treatments can slow this down. Skin elasticity is the skin's ability to stretch and then return to its normal state afterwards. Like wrinkles and grey hair, reduced skin elasticity is a fact of aging for most people. In order to test the elasticity of your skin pinch the skin of your cheek and pull it softly. Then wait to see how quickly it returns to its normal position. You will see that in younger people the skin returns to its normal state very quickly, because a young person’s skin has more elasticity. As you get older it will take longer and longer for your skin to "ping" back into place.
