Abstract

All humans experience intrinsic aging. Typically, it is characterized by smooth, relatively atrophic, finely wrinkled, or lax skin. Histologically, the stratum corneum is normal. However, the epidermis is atrophic and there is flattening of the dermo-epidermal junction. Dermal features include decreased thickness, loss of elastic fibers, and a decrease in the biosynthetic capacity of fibroblasts [1, 2]
