Age-related changes in facial skin. Care for changing skin.

It is known that the signs of skin aging are not to the same extent found in different parts of the body. The most vulnerable are nude skin areas, especially the face and neck. How does it all start?

First, the elasticity of soft tissues decreases. The first messengers of the onset changes are subtle wrinkles in the corners of the eyes, first appearing with laughter or conversation. Usually such wrinkles are noticeable with fatigue - after a bad sleep or a hard working day, but in time they become more and more easy to see, especially in places with active mimic muscles.

Such wrinkles can appear very early, for years to 20-25, before the skin loses its turgor. By age 30, age changes in the skin become more pronounced and previously almost imperceptible longitudinal wrinkles on the lower and upper eyelids become more pronounced, forming "crow's feet." Then, wrinkles of thinking - transverse wrinkles on the skin of the forehead - appear more and more clearly. Vertical folds appear on the bridge of the nose, a youthful face giving an expression of sadness, and the faces of the elderly - an expression of discontent, dislike. The nasolabial folds become deeper.

At the corners of the mouth formed wrinkles, as if increasing its size and lowering the corners of the mouth. The expression of the face becomes more mature, stern, severe and even sad.

Older people have thinner skin than younger ones. This is due to the disappearance of the collagen fibers from which the dermis mainly consists. The elastic skin, left without support, becomes less stretched and shrinks, which leads to the formation of wrinkles.

In childhood, due to the subcutaneous fat layer of the face, pleasant roundness is well expressed, especially in the cheeks. However, during puberty, the amount of fatty layer significantly decreases: the eyes begin to appear deeper, the cheeks extend, the nose becomes more acute.

In the majority of 35-40-year-old women, age-related changes in the skin manifest themselves in a certain increase in the subcutaneous fat volume of the face. It fills up the increasing amounts of skin on the face. However, this age completeness lasts only until the age-related cachexia, illness or caused by artificially losing weight, will not lead to a reduction or disappearance of the fatty lining of the facial skin.
