What features make you look older?

Enlarged pores, dark spots, and sun damage can easily make your skin look like its years older than it really is. If you've put it through a lot in the past, you may want to consider options like microdermabrasion to buff away uneven, dull skin.

When it comes to looking younger, are we targeting the right physical characteristics? Surprisingly, some of the facial features that really make us look older aren’t things we can hide behind age creams or the right makeup. Here’s what you should really be paying attention to when you want to seek out a younger, more youthful glow:

Your Skin

Enlarged pores, dark spots, and sun damage can easily make your skin look like its years older than it really is. If you’ve put it through a lot in the past, you may want to consider options like microdermabrasion to buff away uneven, dull skin. Chemical peels can erase the appearance of blemishes or dark spots. Sometimes intensive pulsed light (IPL) is used instead for areas of sun damage.

Your Eyes

Nope – it’s not necessarily your crow’s feet at the corners of your eye that are giving away your age. Rather, it’s droopy folds of skin along the eyelids. The excessive skin ages your face and can gradually impact your vision without you even realizing it. If dark circles are prevalent, it can make you look worn and tired – not the age you feel inside. Fortunately, we are able to manage these delicate, sensitive tissues with a variety of different eye treatment options.

Your Cheeks

Are you starting to see your cheek tissues pull downward, creating lines around your mouth? A mid facelift may be an excellent way to tighten the loosened skin and a younger contour to your facial profile. We can also add dermal fillers in areas along the side of the face to fill in fine lines or wrinkles caused by the pull of your drooping tissues.

Your Neck

We don’t spend as much time taking care of our necks as we do the rest of our face, but it’s one of the first places that really make us look older. As gravity works wonders on pulling our tissues downward, it’s not uncommon to experience looseness of the tissues just below the jaw. Fatty deposits in the region add to bulkiness of sagging areas, adding insult to injury. Fortunately, we can treat some types of neck droopiness with non-surgical techniques to erase fatty tissue and tighten the skin with options like Kybella.

Your Lips and Nose

Did you know that the idea of your nose continuing to grow as you age, is true? It continues to grow both outward and down, the older we get. Thankfully, it is fairly easy to reshape your nose, so that it looks more youthful and brings harmony to your facial features. To add insult to injury, our lips also begin to thin and lack volume the older that we get. Adding volume to lip tissues or even lifting the border of the lip up can create an illusion of fullness.

mindbodygreen.com - 22 Subtle Signs A Guy Likes You, From Dating Experts

Here's the thing about trying to know if a guy likes you: Sometimes looking for small signs is never going to give you an accurate full picture of what's going on. Some guys will do all of the above with their friends, while other guys will like someone but not do any of the above. "Some folks may be less able to express their attractions as overtly as this," Battle says. "For instance, my shy clients sometimes struggle with externalizing their feelings for a crush even in subtle ways. That means that even though they like someone, it might be harder for the other person to tell. When in doubt, talk about it!" If you're not sure if a guy likes you but is hiding it, just ask him and let him tell you directly how he feels. It sounds scary, but it definitely doesn't have to be! A simple "Hey, I think you're really cool, and I'm kind of into you—are you into me?" is casual, direct, a little sexy, and also nonthreatening. If it's a no, at least you know! And if it's a yes, now the fun stuff begins.
