Summary about Aging (Natural Or Accelerated)

Ageing of the skin is caused by numerous factors; some we cannot influence, others we can. Natural aging is one factor we cannot control. We all develop visible wrinkles on our faces as we age and naturally lose some of their youthful appearance. Our skin appears to be thinner and drier; these changes are primarily determined by our genes. The other kind of aging that affects our skin is controllable. Our lifestyle choices and the environment we live in can cause our skin to age prematurely or accelerate the process of aging.
