Deep dives

Understanding Skin Aging Mechanisms

Skin aging is driven by two main processes: internal aging and external stressors. Internal aging encompasses natural cellular mutations and accumulated inflammation that disrupt skin regeneration. External factors such as UV exposure, pollution, and smoking exacerbate this process by damaging DNA and proteins, resulting in an increase of senescent cells, often referred to as 'zombie cells.' The accumulation of these cells promotes inflammation, leading to visible skin aging signs like wrinkles, dark spots, and sagging skin.
