The damage that develops in the skin over the years comes from two sources. First there is intrinsic damage. This is before the spontaneous age-related changes which everyone develops in varying degrees. The second type is actinic or sun-cause damage. This varies widely depending on one’s skin type and lifelong sun exposure. Together these changes are the differences we see from the smooth, soft, resilient and attractive skin of our youth.
