According to the authors, the findings indicated that smoking could have an impact on facial attractiveness and the amount of wrinkling that people experience. They said that knowledge of this may help to deter some people from taking up the habit or help others to quit.
"We proposed a novel approach that could be used to search for causal effects of health exposures, and demonstrated this approach to search for the effects of smoking heaviness," Louise Millard, lead author of the study from Bristol Medical School: Population Health Sciences, said in a statement. The technique that the team used was a combination of two methods. The first was known as"Mendelian randomization," which essentially looks at genetic variations in a person's DNA to help understand how certain risk factors lead to specific health outcomes.
The authors said in the study that a current smoker who has smoked five cigarettes per day for 12 years, for example, or a former smoker who smoked five cigarettes per day for 21 years but stopped 10 years ago have a much higher chance of reporting that others say they look older than they are compared to someone who has never smoked.
