Why does the skin age?
Our skin ages in two ways, with external factors and genetically. The biggest cause of aging due to external factors is the sun’s rays. Ultraviolet rays cause substances that are difficult to be removed from the skin (free radicals) to accumulate in the cells. As a result, collagen and elastic fibers under the skin, which give the skin its elasticity and tension, lose their quality due to the ultraviolet effect. Thus, the tension of the skin is reduced. The shiny, smooth and plump structure of the skin disappears.The skin loses its battle against gravity and sagging occurs on the skin over time. Undesirable signs such as skin relaxation, increased wrinkles, spotting, paleness, thinning occur. Sometimes these findings can start at a very early age.
