I mean, some people get luckier and it might start later for them, but everybody is under this decline of the cell renewal process.
And as a consequence, and I believe that's what you were referring to, we start losing collagen, elastin.
And if you have less collagen and elastin, your skin is not going to look as good.
clear and it's gonna get thinner and probably not as a little more duller than it used to and there are there is a last reason for as an internal cause of skin aging it's hormonal variation and especially for women who when they reach menopause, so you have less production of estrogen.
