What method would you use to preserve your original young face as long as possible (assuming you started at like 18) if you could do anything?

A chain is only as strong as its weakest link. Tissue maintenance is a whole-body thing, not just a face thing.
>Do daily stretches, exercises that rotate your joints, keep your body nimble.
>Have a balanced mix of strength exercises, isometric exercises, endurance exercises.
>Keep your brain active, challenge it with daily exercise; maths, juggling, N-back, PASAT, videogames, learning languages, etc.
>Have a regular sleep schedule, at the very least make sure you wake up around the same time every day, get sunlight exposure shortly after waking up.
>Do a 24-36 hour fast once a week, or once every 2 weeks.
>Make sure your testosterone levels are adequate (one of the most effective means is to eat more cholesterol, and to make sure you endure more mental and physical challenges each day you have to push through).
>Drink about a litre of water each day.
>Avoid alcohol like the plague.
>Take care of your gut microbiome (boil potato, put it in fridge, let it cool down, eat it, gut bacteria you depend on love that shit, also kimchi, also kefir).
>Take very good care of your teeth. They supply your blood with all kinds of minerals your body and skin need, if they are healthy. If they aren't, they DEMAND those minerals and nutrients from your blood. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVCaYyUWWSw)
>Wash your skin vigorously with lukewarm water once a day, not just your face, your entire body. Avoid blistering hot showers.
Your nervous system is the CEO that decides how your body maintains its tissues. If your nervous system is forced to keep everything at peak efficiency, it'll do that. It's designed to do that. If it's not forced to be optimal with every molecule in your body, then the most optimal thing to do is to not spend too many resources on keeping everything running at peak efficiency. It doesn't have to. So, the chain of "tissue maintenance" is only as strong as its weakest link.

I would never take in information that isn't directly from the environment immediately surrounding me. Every blemish, wrinkle, eye bag, malding, and grey hair have been directly caused by a reaction of visceral disgust to the greater world. If I had never turned on a device since 18, I'd probably look my age and not 10 years older than I am. You can probably get away with offline vidya predating 2010, but everything else just brings unnecessary stress, disgust, or unfortunate realizations about the state of reality.

What is it that causes men's heads to massively grow with age? Redditors and the hand wavers here will always simplify and say that the skull doesnt change shape at all, and it's just skin sagging and weightgain and hairloss, but that's so obviously not fucking true. It's not true that you could just fill in the same hairline and tighten the skin and voila you have the old person. The skull has obviously gotten bigger. What's the medical reason this happens, and how can we prevent it?

growth hormone over the years because of muscle pressure induced boneformation. also skin getting flabby, skin almost never shrinks, so as the skin stretches, and new cells go inbetween, the start to drab over the skull more, leaving more empty space that can be filled up with fat and water retention

Thought it still shrank up to like early 30s....
>new cells go inbetween, the start to drab over the skull more, leaving more empty space that can be filled up with fat and water retention
Is there any surgeon in the world that removes these or works "shrinking" skulls?

Inflammation, generally. But what is the specific cause for men's heads to balloon up when they get older? Alcohol.
The "alcoholic head" thing has been observed many many times. I think even the comedian Bill Burr has a whole bit about Alec Baldwin's head growing massive from being an alcoholic.

I too am interested in this. There seems to be several factors needing to be addressed. The weakening collagen matrix, the reduction of facial fat pads, and oxidation and other time related damages. There are many products targeting collagen and dermal thickeness. What if for the fat pads you used something like Adifyline on the areas it is migrating from while using Actigym or similar on the areas it migrates to. That way you rebuild fat where it is lost and lose it where it has gone. Please chime in anons. I want quality facial skin anti aging discussion.
