Characteristics of aging skin

Aging is an inevitable physiological process of the human body. Although aging cannot be eliminated, it can be delayed. The biggest characteristic of skin aging is dehydration and loss of collagen, which is manifested externally as wrinkles, light spots, and dull complexion. Modern women pay great attention to skin care, but some life pressures or unhealthy living habits accelerate the aging process, resulting in the premature and prolonged appearance of eye bags and dark circles.

1. Internal manifestations of skin aging:

1. The content of natural moisturizing factor decreases, and the moisture content decreases by 25%-35% compared to when you are young. The stratum corneum becomes thicker, and the skin becomes dry and dull.

2. The number of sweat glands decreases, sweat nourishment is insufficient, and heat dissipation becomes poor (prone to heat stroke)

3. Collagen decreases by more than 50%, elastic fibers and reticular fibers are lost, lack of elasticity, and sagging skin

4. Subcutaneous fat tissue decreases or even disappears, and the skin becomes loose and sagging

2. External manifestations of skin aging:

1. Skin becomes loose and sagging, dull and lusterless, with decreased elasticity and firmness, and the formation of small light spots

2. More acne and larger pores

3. The formation of wrinkles, as well as their deepening and increasing number

3. The three most obvious characteristics of skin aging

1. Rough and dull skin

Women show the most obvious signs of aging. Nowadays, women often work overtime and stay up late, and face the computer for a long time. These are the main factors that accelerate the aging of facial skin, and are accompanied by the gradual increase of spots and fine lines.

2. Dark circles deepen

Everyone is born with dark circles under their eyes. You will find that the dark circles become more and more serious as you age. Nowadays, women are under great work pressure and live a stressful life for a long time, which can easily lead to lack of sleep or long-term eye fatigue, which can cause serious dark circles and make you look older.

3. Eye bags are getting bigger

Eye bags are not double-eye bags. Don’t confuse them. Double-eye bags will make you look young and beautiful, but big eye bags will make you look listless. Now you know why some people turn their eye bags into double-eye bags. The older you get, the more obvious your eye bags will be.
