and career etc., so the journey to this state of fullness is different for each of us. According to psychologists, to reach a state of fullness, our wheel of life should be as full as possible to bring balance and happiness to our lives, ensuring the journey is as smooth as possible. To fill your joy list, try listing the things that you know make you happy. This is one way to also help you achieve your goals and become a healthier and more radiant version of yourself. In the same way, to bring skin a refreshed, awakened and younger appearance, the “wheel of plumping” should also be as full as possible. Ageing itself and internal/external factors such as hereditary components, UV, smoke, alcohol, chronic sleep deprivation and diet can lead to a decrease in antioxidant and antiinflammatory capacity, which can damage adipose tissue. Age-dependent modification of the facial subcutaneous white adipose tissue influences the mechanical stability of the skin and causes the development of signs of ageing, such as wrinkles, a loss of elasticity, fullness, luminosity etc.
