What Exactly Happens to Your Face as You Age?

Age-related skin issues are among the most common reasons why people visit dermatologists. As you grow older, you’ll notice that your skin begins to sag. This happens because your body naturally produces less collagen and elastin later in life. These two proteins are essential for maintaining the elasticity and resiliency of the skin.

When you watch this featured video, you’ll hear a dermatologist explain that age also causes facial fat loss and the recession of the cheekbones. The tissues in the cheeks gradually shift downward, causing the bottom of the face to widen.
