Skin Concerns for Ages 40 and Above

Dull Skin

Dull skin commonly occurs due to extreme temperatures, wind, and air conditioning, which can cause the skin to peel, crack, and feel tight.

Loss of Volume and Elasticity (Saggy Skin)

Hormonal changes can reduce skin elasticity and volume, especially on the backs of the hands, making veins more visible and prominent. Additionally, age spots from sun exposure may appear, contributing to an aged appearance.

Fine Lines and Wrinkles

These are the most common and inevitable signs of aging. However, wrinkles can appear as early as your 20s or 30s due to excessive sun exposure and unhealthy habits such as smoking.

Dry Skin

Dry skin often appears as flaky, rough, and wrinkled. It is commonly caused by environmental factors that can often be managed or prevented.

Uneven Skin Tone

Uneven skin tone often appears as discoloration or patches on the skin. It is usually caused by variations in melanin levels across different areas but can also result from changes in blood vessels or the growth of foreign substances on the skin.

Strawberry Nose (Enlarged Pores)

Commonly referred to as “strawberry nose,” this condition can appear on the face, back, chest, or upper arms. It is caused by hormonal changes and the buildup of dirt and debris in pores, resulting in visible enlarged pores.
