There are several factors that contribute to the processes and the effects of ageing can be accelerated through poor lifestyle choices such as smoking, environmental stresses on the skin or by simply not looking after what we have.
The skin loses an average of 1% of collagen every year from the age of early 20’s. This means that gradually over time, our skin becomes thinner, facial volume reduces, lines and wrinkles start to appear, and blood vessels show. The lack of facial volume also means the facial skin soon begins to sag and no longer looks plump and smooth as it once did.
