Smoking Makes Your Look Older!

A new study published in Journal of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons comparing standardized photographs of identical twins with different smoking histories to see the impact of smoking to facial aging. Twins who had smoked longer had worse scores for lower lid bags, malar bags, and lower lip vermillion wrinkles.

 The left twin has smoked 17 years longer than the right twin.
 The right twin is a smoker and the left twin is a nonsmoker.
 The right twin has smoked 29 years and the left twin is a nonsmoker.
 The right twin has smoked 14 years longer than the left twin.

I guess this will be a very good reason to quit smoking besides health reasons.
