What can Smoking do to your Skin and Body?

by Sara Kitch

Smoking is without a doubt one of the worst habits that you can acquire. It promotes premature aging and diseases such as cancer and emphysema. The following article will explore the problems that smoking can cause throughout your body and skin.

We will take a look at the three main areas of the body that are affected by smoking and why: heart, lungs and skin. Keep in mind that these adverse effects can also affect in non-smokers.

Heart Damage due to Smoking

The heart of a smoker is at risk for illnesses such as arrhythmia and heart failure. The irritating effects of nicotine and other elements found in cigarette smoke can intensify any heart problems making the heart work harder. Eventually, a harder working heart breaks down faster.

Lung Damage due to Smoking

Smoking makes your lungs work harder, just like your heart. Chronic smokers are in danger of acquiring problems such as the complete obstruction of their lungs natural cleansing process. The same irritating gases produce chemical damage to the tissues of your lungs and the airways leading the lungs increase the production of mucus. This excess mucus is an excellent breeding ground for a wide range of viruses and bacteria, and makes you more susceptible to different respiratory infections. The lining of your bronchi also begins to thicken, predisposing you to cancers of the bronchi. Most lung cancers arise in the bronchial lining.

Skin Damage due to Smoking

Smoking destroys both your inner body as well as your outer body. Because smoking contracts the blood vessels in your skin, it diminishes the quantity of oxygen and essential nutrients that are delivered to the skin and damages the collagen and elastin in it. The effects are not only visible on your face, but they can also manifest on any part of your body covered by skin making a wrinkle treatment imperative.

The other condition that is linked with smoking is a syndrome called "smoker's face". Because of the perpetual pursing of the lips and squinting of the eyes, deep creases begin to develop around the mouth and eyes. The face also takes on a grayish aspect.

Healthy skin begins with healthy habits like not smoking or quitting. To repair and rejuvenate skin that has been harmed by smoking, try products that include rose hip oil. Facial skin care is vital so don't wait another minute to try our skin care lotions and creams.
