A specialist explained which sleeping position accelerates the appearance of wrinkles and other age-related changes.
Cosmetologist Georgy Kabulov shared a comment on this topic.
In an interview with Gazeta.Ru , the expert advised against falling asleep in a body position that causes excessive skin tension.
You should also avoid positions that cause folds to gather.
In such cases, additional factors for the formation of wrinkles appear in various areas: face, neck, décolleté.
As an example, the cosmetologist gave sleeping on your side or stomach.
These are the worst options in terms of accelerated aging.
To avoid stimulating the formation of wrinkles, it is recommended to sleep on your back.
Kabulov also named another non-obvious consequence of sleeping on your side.
In this case, there may be a loss of volume on one side of the face. This can increase the natural asymmetry.
The cosmetologist advises not only to sleep on your back, but also to use an orthopedic pillow.
It will help keep your head in an anatomically correct position.
