Hi all of you lovely people,

I have few queries and I hope you can help.

I am 34 year old male and yes it is that time when signs of aging have started to show andI thought what better place to ask for advise than this forum.
Yes, wrinkles have started to appear and my skin and face looks aged compared to just last year !

  1. I have started to develop small bags and wrinkles under my eyes - this is causing me most concern. What can I do to remedy this before it gets worse?
  2. Also, I have fine lines on my forehead - this is less of concern over 1, but any tips to reduce them?
  3. General facial skin care tips which I can start doing from now on to avoid/ delay ageing, appearance of more fine or deep lines ?
  4. Any specific products (retinol, collagen , anything else)/ regimen / treatments and general tips apart from enough sleep, hydration, moisturising, sun protection ?
  5. Do I need any salon treatments? If yes, which


To give some background, I have never taken this seriously. I only use a Loreal facewash in morning and then apply a Nivea mens face cream. I repeat the same after I come from work. I use the face cream primarily because my skin feels dry and stretched after shower. I dont do cleansing, toning or any thing else.
All my life I have had a facial only done twice.

I generally have clean diet, dont smoke, moderate alcohol, regular gym.

Sincere responses appreciated.

Had to look up the name but check out Chizu Saeki, she's like this Japanese skincare guru obsessed with lymphatic facial massage. There might be some Youtube videos and she's written a few books.
