Smoking might give you a momentary high but the effects are life threatening and may change your life forever. Smoking is definitely not a good habit as it takes away not only your health but also plays havoc with your looks. Smoking harms you internally as well as externally, it deprives the skin of important nutrients and oxygen to such an extent that it makes you look much older. According to dermatologists, nicotine and other harmful chemicals are clogged in your arteries and block access of important nutrients to the blood. Read the article to know how smoking affects your looks including your skin and hair.

Cigarette smoke makes your skin sag and speeds up the appearance of wrinkles. It also weakens your hair follicles making them weak and shrink.

Here is a how smoking affects your looks:

Sagging skin and wrinkles: The chemicals in tobacco fumes trigger destruction of collagen and elastin resulting in sagging and wrinkling of the skin.

Effects on lip line: While smoking, the muscles are used in a way that leads to wrinkling of the skin around the lips leading to loss of elasticity.

Age spots: Smoking leads to age spots (dark patches of skin colour around face and hands)

Skin staining: Smoking leads to staining of skin of the fingers, nails and also staining of teeth.

Hair loss: Smoking leads to early thinning of hair in case of men and women. It actually speeds up the hair thinning process.

 Scientific Evidence of how Smoking harms your Skin and Hair

A  study published in the Archives of Dermatology in 2007 proved that smokers, especially ones who smoke more frequently, are more likely to experience balding and thinning of the hair. This is most likely attributed to the fact that smoking damages the hair follicle. It also interferes with circulation and hormone production in the scalp.
As the arteries are clogged due to nicotine and other harmful chemicals the supply of essential oxygen and nutrients to the head is reduced leading to hair loss and hair thinning. Click here

Crow’s feet ( eye wrinkles): Smokers usually squint to keep off the smoke and this leads to crow’s feet and the inhaled tobacco( due to harmful chemicals) damages the blood vessels and the skin structure around the eyes.

Hair smells: Your hair smells like smoke.  Believe me I know that is how my hubby’s hair smelled when he used to smoke)

Dull and Brittle hair: With loss of nutrient and oxygen supply (harmful nicotine and chemicals block arteries lead to loss of nutrient supply to the scalp) your hair becomes dull and brittle

Premature Graying: There is a close link between smoking and premature graying as toxins present in cigarettes not only cause damage to hormones but also harm the hair follicles and once your hair begins to turn grey it can also take on unhealthy yellow tinge due to the cigarette smoke.

Cigarette smoke enters the bloodstream through your lungs and is carried by the circulatory system to all parts of the body. One can say that no part is exempt from the harmful effects of smoking from your hair follicles to the skin on your toes. So quit smoking and breathe easy.
