INSTANTLY ageing more than 50 years, young smokers in Hampshire have been given a shocking glimpse into their future if they don’t kick the habit. Using the latest computer technology to show the signs of ageing, health teams invited smokers to see what effects years of tobacco would do to their appearance.

“It is really shocking,” said Maz Churcher, who celebrated her 21st birthday by seeing how she would look at the age of 72 if she carried on smoking.
