Chronological Aging - 50 to 60
This is the age maturity.
The fat padding beneath the skin has diminished so your face shows more of its angles and hollows. As muscle fibers weaken, the fat that remains under the eyes forms bags. Facial bones begin to shrink, causing all-around sagging. Oil production decreases after menopause, resulting in significant dryness. As cell turnover rate continues to slow, skin becomes thinner and more prone to wrinkling and drooping. Years of sun exposure or hormonal changes may lead to patchiness or unevenness in skin tone.
