What are Loose Skin & Wrinkles?

Loose skin and wrinkles are visible signs of aging, caused by factors such as reduced collagen, elastin, and hydration in the skin. These conditions result in sagging skin and fine lines or creases, which can affect the skin's smooth and youthful appearance.

What Causes Loose Skin & Wrinkles?

The primary causes of loose skin and wrinkles include:

Aging: Natural aging leads to a decrease in collagen and elastin production, essential proteins that keep the skin firm and elastic.
Sun Exposure: UV rays damage skin cells and accelerate the breakdown of collagen and elastin.
Lifestyle Factors: Smoking, poor diet, and lack of hydration can negatively impact skin health.
Genetics: Heredity can play a significant role in how your skin ages.
Facial Expressions: Repeated facial movements can create lines and wrinkles over time.
