Scientists again remind - if you care about your appearance - stop smoking. Otherwise, here's what you are threatened with:.

• Poor sleep and bags under the eyes. At night, the body tries to get rid of the excess of nicotine, in connection with which you so often toss, you can not sleep for a long time and in the morning do not feel rested. On your face it manifests itself in the form of a constant presence of a bag under the eyes.

• Yellowish teeth. Smoking leads to the formation of a yellowish plaque on your teeth, and since smoking is usually regular, it is almost impossible for a smoker to get rid of the plaque.

• Wrinkles and aging of the skin. Smoking complicates the blood supply, and therefore our skin does not get much needed for it to restore nutrients. As a result, according to the generally recognized opinion, smokers look 1.4 times older than non-smokers.

• Thin hair. Cigarettes, as is known, consist for the most part not from tobacco, but from various chemicals that disrupt the structure of the DNA of our hair follicles. As a result, smokers are twice as fast as they are gray, have thinner and brittle hair, and men are much more susceptible to hair loss in this case.

• Gray complexion. Absence of blood flow and skin saturation with carbon monoxide leads to the fact that it acquires a greyish or greenish tinge - on this basis it is always possible to distinguish a smoker from a non-smoker.

• Warts.

For not completely understandable reasons, smokers are more susceptible to various infectious diseases, including human papillomavirus. The likelihood of warts in smokers is 4 times greater than that of non-smokers.

• Poor wound healing. Scars and scars after plastic surgery will not resolve at all, which is why surgeons insist that their patients abandon their addiction before carrying out complex operations.

And this is only a very short list of what your appearance suffers from if you are a smoker.
