Should Pregnant Women Protect Themselves from Aging?

Expecting mothers often prioritize their baby's nutrition or finding ways to prevent stretch marks and seize the golden opportunity to age gracefully.

During the months of pregnancy, the health and development of the fetus is usually the top priority for expectant mothers. However, expectant mothers also need to take care of their own health and maintain a youthful appearance through proper skincare, in order to create a happy and comfortable environment for the fetus. But because they are pregnant, expectant mothers are still concerned about how to effectively “combat aging” while ensuring safety.

What prevents expectant mothers from being beautiful

Women go through many physical changes during pregnancy, and they particularly experience many skin problems. These are also the first signs that contribute to premature aging in expectant mothers.

Skin discoloration and dullness often appear in the early stages due to the expectant mother’s mood being influenced by morning sickness and fatigue. Both mental and physical health decrease significantly, leading to a tired and dull appearance compared to the previous skin condition.

In addition to hormonal changes and uncertainty about which skincare products are safe, expectant mothers are prone to developing abnormal dark pigmentation areas from the 13th week onwards. These pigmentation areas become darker when the body is under stress, fatigue, or continuous exposure to UV rays.

Pregnancy brings many changes that make the skin of expectant mothers more sensitive. For example, their skin easily becomes inflamed or irritated when there are weather changes or exposure to an unhealthy environment. In addition, weight gain during pregnancy increases blood pressure, which is one of the reasons why expectant mothers have flushed skin throughout pregnancy.

Anti-aging for expectant mothers – To do or not to do

After giving birth, the mother’s body usually experiences a decline in health. This also has a significant impact on the skin. Skin problems that occur during pregnancy such as acne, dark spots, melasma, and sensitivity inadvertently become more severe and affect the recovery process.

Therefore, prevention and optimizing safe but multi-functional solutions that expectant mothers can easily adapt to and use are essential. Pushing back skin problems early and timely during pregnancy is also effectively fighting premature aging in expectant mothers.

Effective and safe anti-aging tips for expectant mothers

Whether pregnant or not, expectant mothers need to pay attention to protecting their skin from the harmful effects of UV rays as this is the main factor in aging, dark spots, and skin cancer. One of the simple yet effective habits is to regularly apply broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher sunscreen to keep the skin healthy and youthful throughout pregnancy.

In addition to sun protection, expectant mothers can choose skincare products that contain antioxidants to prevent premature aging. Antioxidants are generally gentle, safe to use, and easily combine well with other anti-aging ingredients. They soothe the skin, improve skin health, and some researched active ingredients are proven to stimulate the production of collagen – an important protein that determines the firmness of the dermis. Some effective yet safe antioxidant ingredients for expectant mothers include vitamin C, vitamin E, and Ferulic Acid…

One of the gentle ingredients for expectant mothers in the journey of fighting premature aging that is often overlooked is peptides. Peptides are known as the building blocks of important proteins that play a role in maintaining the structure and health of the skin, such as collagen, elastin, and keratin. Peptides have the ability to promote collagen synthesis.

Contrary to other ingredient groups that only target one or a few signs of skin aging, peptides have the ability to effectively improve various signs of skin aging. In addition to stimulating collagen synthesis, peptides also have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, moisturizing, brightening, and muscle-relaxing properties that help reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
