Beauty lovers are always trying to find the best new ways to get younger looking skin and often turn to cosmetic surgeries like Botox.
According to GOV.UK, an estimated 900,000 Botox injections are performed in the UK each year.
However, the aesthetic doctor and beauty expert has revealed the five things she does every day to ensure her skin always looks its best without cosmetic surgery.
Dr. Keyana Emamian, general practitioner and aesthetic, skin and hair specialist at Este Medical Grouphas spent nearly two decades in the beauty industry, and now she’s sharing the secrets of her own daily routine that anyone can easily follow at home.
She shared: “Many of us have our own skincare needs, goals and routines depending on our skin types, but there are a few things we can all do to achieve a healthier complexion.”
1) Cleaning every day
Most of us are guilty of not cleaning up every day. It is essential to use a facial cleanser to remove dead skin cells, oil, dirt, makeup and other impurities from the skin, which helps to keep pores clean and prevent skin conditions such as acne.
Emamian shared, “Each cleansing is very important to remove impurities and allow the skin to breathe. I never go to bed with makeup on, I always make sure I use a gentle cleanser before bed.”
2) Moisturizes the skin
Moisturizer can help plump the skin, making wrinkles and lines less visible and essentially younger looking. This also helps to dry out the skin, which quickly adds to tight skin, creating fine lines and wrinkles.
The expert shared: “Moisturizing the skin is also essential every day to maintain its protective barrier to reduce water loss and keep impurities at bay, and it’s something I consider a very important part of my routine.”
3) sunscreen
Emamian revealed: “I think sunscreen should be an important part of everyone’s skin care routine, especially in the summer months, and I never leave home without it. The SPF should be at least 30 and reapplied every three to four hours.”
Sunscreen helps fight sunburn, skin cancer, and premature aging, but to get a younger look, beauty lovers should avoid sunbathing and tanning, as it also accelerates aging.
4) drinking water
Not only does water keep your body hydrated and young, but it also helps maintain your skin’s elasticity, making you look younger.
She shared: “What we put in our bodies has a real effect on our skin, so I make sure I drink at least two liters of water a day and eat a healthy diet.”
5) Sleep
“And finally, adequate sleep is very beneficial for our skin, promoting proper blood circulation and allowing skin cell renewal. I always try to sleep at least seven hours a day.
In addition to the five things she does every day to ensure her skin looks its best, the expert has another top tip for beauty lovers who want maximum results.
She added: “Exfoliation is an important part of a healthy complexion as it helps remove dead skin cells and impurities, giving you brighter, smoother skin.
“I do it at least once or twice a week and consider it a very important part of my skincare routine.”
