Factors that Contribute to Skin Aging
There are many factors that contribute to early skin aging and the development of wrinkles. Genetic predisposition and gender play an important role in skin aging.
Having parents who appear older predisposes you to skin aging and wrinkles. Women are also more prone than men to develop wrinkles around the mouth.
Environmental factors such as excessive sun exposure, smoking and increased stress predispose to skin aging, wrinkles and lines.
Finally what you eat can also contribute to skin aging. Consuming sodas and processed foods that contain high phosphate levels predisposes to skin aging and wrinkles.
