Smoking negatively affects the entire body, including not affecting the appearance in the best way. Nana Nosareva, cosmetologist, dermatologist and mycologist at SM-Cosmetology, told socialbites.ca how exactly this habit can affect a person’s appearance.
First of all, according to him, smoking negatively affects the facial skin, which turns gray-earthy, loses its shine, becomes rough, saggy and loose.
“All this is due to the penetration of nicotine degradation products into the blood, which reduces vascular tone and most negatively affects the biochemical processes in skin cells. Also, under the influence of nicotine, the activity of free radicals increases, which causes very rapid aging of the skin, due to changes in the structure of collagen and elastin, which are responsible for the firmness and elasticity of the skin.
He also noted that with the effect of resins, vitamin C, a natural antioxidant, was also destroyed. For this reason, the skin of smokers loses its freshness and healthy appearance.
According to the doctor, smoking also has a negative effect on the hair, which acquires an unpleasant odor, a dull appearance, becomes brittle and actively falls out.
“When tobacco is burned, soot and tar are formed. Because of this, the teeth darken and turn yellow, lose their shine and even collapse. There is a constant bad breath that cannot be interrupted by anything. Over time, almost all smokers under the influence of tobacco poisons lose their purity and become coarse, hoarse and hoarse, ”added Nosareva.
formerly British organized scandal related to the ban on smoking on the plane and received a prison sentence.
