Your Skin in Your 50’s

Ok, so you’ve gotten through your 40’s, and you thought that was rough (literally). Now your 50’s have arrived and what should you expect?

Skin changes in your 50’s

Whether male or female, your skin still continues to lose elasticity because of the declining levels of collagen and elastin.  Your fine lines start to deepen and overall, the skin your face and body becomes thinner, looser, which leads to sagging and drooping. This becomes particularly menacing around your face and neck. The skin looks and feels dryer and more fragile. Also, the skin’s barrier becomes even more dehydrated because of the dropping levels of hyaluronic acid.
