Hello,

May I ask if you smoke?

Have you had weight loss?

Thanks,

Macy

I smoked until October of 1989. I have maintained a steady weight, i.e., 5'8" and 140-145 pounds.

Thank you for your response.

Wrinkles form when the skin loses its elasticity.

Some wrinkling is a result of aging and is probally inevitable.

Heredity, lifestyle, sun exposure all play a part and leads to generation of free radicals that can damage the skin.

Supplements:

-Primrose or black current seed oil 1000mg 3x a day

-multivitamin

-antioxidants

Drink at least 2 quarts of water daily even if you do not feel thirsty.

avoid smoke, alcohol and caffeine

Unfortuanetly smoking causes your mouth to purse hundreds of times a day.

The creases that form when you inhale from a cigarette often develop into wrinkles at a young age.

Let me know if you have further questions.

Best wishes to you.

Macy
