Ageing Skin
Characteristics: fine lines and wrinkles are the main signs of ageing skin. They’re first noticeable around your eyes, mouth and on your forehead. You may also notice your skin getting drier and lacking lustre as you get older. Another major change is your skin becoming saggier and thin.
Causes: with age, our collagen and elastin production declines. Collagen and elastin form the underlying skin matrix that supports our skin’s structure, keeping it looking tight and volumised in our younger years. As a result, our skin starts to fold, causing the lines and wrinkles we see. Additionally, years of facial expressions through smiling, laughing and frowning can have an impact.
