Understanding and Addressing the Signs of Aging

What You Need To Know

As the hands of time continue their unrelenting progress, our skin can start to display the wear and tear of our lifelong journeys. No matter how well you take care of yourself, diet, exercise, and expensive skin care regimens can not prevent the inevitable effects of time, environment, and gravity.

Everyone’s face and body will eventually succumb to the effects of aging, experiencing varying amounts of skin laxity. These effects can occur anywhere on the body but are most prevalent on the face, neck, abdomen, and thighs.

Sagging skin under the chin and puffy under-eye bags are common complaints. Crepey, delicate skin can be covered with a swimming pool’s worth of hydration, with no improvement in sight. The appearance of skin creases, fine lines, and wrinkles can enhance the prevalence of cellulite.

Skin laxity occurs mainly due to the loss of collagen and elastin proteins that break down as we age. Certain lifestyle factors, increased exposure to the sun, and environmental toxins can add to this inevitable decline.
