Facial Wrinkling

8K2412

Facial wrinkling is your skin’s natural record of aging and environmental exposure, showing lines and creases formed by years of repeated expressions, sun damage, and collagen breakdown. Research shows that variations near genes involved in skin elasticity and collagen production (like MMP1, ELN, and COL1A1) can influ...
