Age-Related Wrinkles

As the body ages, epidermal cells reproduce at a slower rate, making the skin less able to repair itself. As the dermis ages, it produces less collagen and the elastin fibres wear out, causing the skin to lose its elasticity. The fat cells of the subcutaneous layer begin to shrink with age and no longer fill in the skin, causing it to lose its plump appearance. As the skin ages, all of the layers become thinner and more fragile, and it loses its ability to retain moisture.

 Sun Damage

Prolonged exposure to sunlight accounts for 90% of premature wrinkles. It was once thought that tanning beds were the ‘safe’ method of tanning, but we now know that tanning beds cause just as much skin damage as natural sunlight. Sunlight makes collagen deteriorate at a much higher rate than aging alone. It causes the skin to develop wrinkles early, making it appear much older than it actually is.
