Abstract

ABSTRACT Aging is a continuous and irreversible process which affects
the skin. Skin aging, which is the result of changes in the function and
structure of the dermis, is characterized by thinning, drying, and loss
of elasticity. It significantly adversely influences the role of the skin as
a barrier against all aggressive exogenous factors. Herein, skin aging is
reviewed in terms of clinical, pathological, etiopathogenic, and molecular
aspects.
