Elderly Skin Care
As we becomes mature with aging, our skin age with the years of sun exposure, wrong eating habits, lack of skin care, use of harmful chemicals etc. Elderly skin can be very dry and becomes very thin, with the structures in the dermis clearly visible. The skin becomes more fragile and prone to injuries, with the lack of protection from the dermis, the small blood vessels become vulnerable to breakage and bursting.
At this age, the regular care of the skin is especially important, including the use of mild cleansers. Good-quality day and nigh moisturizers will help to combat the decline in mature skin’s barrier function. Try to protect the skin from sun exposure.

A diet rich in meat and fat increases the risk of squamous cell carcinoma of the skin as compared to a diet rich in vegetables and fruit
Researchers from the Queensland Institute of Medical Research, Brisbane found that people who have a history of skin cancer, can benefit by avoiding fatty foods, overly processed foods, and foods with high amounts of sugar. The association with green leafy vegetables mostly explained this protective effect. No association was seen between dietary patterns and cutaneous basal cell carcinoma, another common form of skin cancer.
