Who ages the fastest?

Who ages the fastest?

We've heard that men age more beautiful. Yet a new study shows that men get wrinkles younger than women.

The differences between men and women
Men don't just get wrinkles earlier, they also get more. After their 75th birthday, women catch up and end up with even more wrinkles. The wrinkles arise in different places in men and women. For example, women have more wrinkles on the upper lip. This is probably due to the difference in skin structure.

Risk Factors
There are risk factors that increase the chance of more wrinkles. Known factors for skin vero are smoking and sunlight. A low BMI often results in more wrinkles. If you have a layer of fat under your skin, wrinkles are often slightly less deep.

Light skin
The research shows that people with fair skin are the least likely to develop wrinkles. Maybe because they rub themselves well. On the other hand, people with fair skin are more likely to get pigmentation spots, also a form of skin aging. You cannot escape the effects of aging, but every skin shows signs of aging in its own way.
