Have you ever thought of that? Okay just the following is the explanation:

  1. Nicotine that makes the smokers become addicted will also trigger skin cell cells become water shortage or moisture so that the skin will become drier, dull and rough like parent skin.
  2. Tobacco in the cigarette is also able to damage the collagen in the skin, so the level of skin elasticity is reduced and make the skin becomes more easily experienced shrinkage. If this continues to happen then the aging of Dini can not be avoided anymore.
  3. In addition cigarettes will also reduce levels of vitamin A in the skin of the face. Where vitamin A is used for natural anti-oxidants that will ward off free radicals and toxins in the face. So if the lack of vitamin A will make cell cells in the face quickly damaged because there is no coating.

My father has been a smoker his whole life, and its affected our family in numerous ways like second hand smoke. Reading this has really opened up my eyes on why he looks old, acts different and is just different than others, I love the article!

Thank you for your attention, smoking is not a danger for smokers only. But it makes the people around him dangerous as well.

Yeah. This is true, nicotine is a killer. But some do escape this as my grandfather smoked till his death at 94. Dunno how he was able to live so long without health implications after smoking for more than half his life.
