How much does smoking age your skin? Is this damage reversible if you quit at a young age?

I am 20, and I have been smoking a little over a pack a day since I was 13. My skin is becoming dry, irregularly colored, and I have recently noticed two deep lines on my forehead. Is it possible to reverse this damage if I quit smoking now, or am I forever doomed to look older than I actually am?

StumbleUpon It!

  1. since you’re still fairly young I imagine it’ll help your skin some (keep in mind it won’t be IMMEDIATE results). But the bigger thing, is if you quit now it’ll prevent your skin from getting even worse. Not to mention the TONS of illness and conditions that you’ll be less likely for if you quit smoking now

  2. I recently saw a girl I worked with in 2005- she looks a good 20 years older now than she did then. She’s also spent about $27,500 on cigarettes since then too.
