First of all, excess skin forms in the eye area, small, barely noticeable facial wrinkles in the corners of the eyes;The outer corners of the eyebrows and nasolabial folds are lowered.This happens before the age of 30.
When you are over 40 years old, the basic signs of facial aging become stronger and new signs appear: the eyelids become heavier, the skin on the chin becomes loose, sagging on the cheeks and large wrinkles appear between the eyebrows.
At age 50, our cheeks almost fuse with our chin due to sagging.And oh, to my horror, the face lost its clear lines!Sometimes the tip of the nose becomes longer.
At age 60, there are obvious changes, the skin becomes thinner and drier, leading to the formation of deep wrinkles.
There are several types of facial aging in women:

- The least noticeable signs of aging are on faces whose skin has a small layer of subcutaneous tissue - this is muscular aging.First, wrinkles form near the eyes (crow's feet), then fat folds above the upper eyelids and pronounced nasolabial folds begin to fall.There is only one reason - age.
