ADVANCED ANTI-AGING
When you hit 30, ne lines and wrinkles start to
be visible.
There are two distinct types of skin aging: Intrinsic Aging caused by
genes we inherit and Extrinsic Aging caused by external factors like
sun exposure, smoking, alcohol intake, and poor nutrition. These
factors reduce skins moisture and collagen, a brous protein that
maintains skins elasticity.
As a result of weakened collagen production, skins rmness and
elasticity diminish, causing ne lines and wrinkles to appear. As a
person ages, the fatty layers of the skin recedes while collagen and
elastin, which support the skin structure, weaken. These factors
result to thinning of the skin and an older appearance.
