Understanding How Your Skin Ages
Natural changes that affect your skin over time
Ageing is a natural process that affects every part of our body, including our skin. By understanding the factors that influence skin ageing, you can take steps to maintain healthy, youthful-looking skin for longer.
As we age, our skin undergoes several changes:
- Loss of collagen and elastin: These proteins provide structure and elasticity to your skin
- Thinning of the skin: The skin becomes more delicate and prone to damage
- Decreased oil production: Leading to dryness and reduced natural protection
- Reduced cell turnover: Slower renewal of skin cells affects texture and radiance
- Environmental damage: Sun exposure, pollution, and lifestyle factors accumulate over time
At our Hornsby medical practice, we offer professional cosmetic treatments that address these concerns while working with your body's natural processes. Our approach combines medical expertise with personalised care to help you achieve your skin goals safely.
Tips for Healthier, More Youthful Skin
Simple lifestyle changes and habits that support skin health and slow the visible signs of ageing.
Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Proper hydration helps maintain skin elasticity, supports cell function, and keeps your complexion looking fresh and plump.
Regular Exercise
Physical activity improves blood circulation, delivering oxygen and nutrients to the skin. This helps nourish skin cells and promotes a healthy, natural glow.
Avoid Smoking and Alcohol
Smoking accelerates skin ageing by reducing blood flow and damaging collagen. Excessive alcohol dehydrates the skin and can cause inflammation and premature wrinkles.
Consistent Skincare Routine
Use high-quality products with active ingredients suited to your skin type. Cleanse, moisturise, and treat your skin daily for optimal results.
Daily Sun Protection
Apply sunscreen every day, regardless of weather conditions. UV exposure is one of the primary causes of premature skin ageing, wrinkles, and pigmentation.

During your initial consultation, your doctor will review your medical history, discuss your skin concerns and goals, examine your skin, and recommend appropriate treatments. This appointment ensures that any procedures are safe and suitable for you. Learn more about our practice policies and what to expect as a new patient.
