Research and expert advice highlight the various biological and environmental factors that contribute to skin and hair aging. Skin aging is driven by a combination of age, genetics, and the exposome, which includes sun exposure, pollution, and lifestyle habits. Experts suggest a skincare routine based on cleansing, hydration, and broad-spectrum SPF 50 protection to manage photoaging.

Additional factors such as stress, smoking, and nutritional deficiencies are noted for their role in accelerating processes like premature graying of the hair. Furthermore, the loss of collagen production, particularly after age 60, contributes to facial wrinkles, with the area around the lips being especially susceptible to fine lines due to low natural fat levels.
