It's said that you can't tell anything about a package from its wrapping. But that's not the case with us humans.
Age brings changes to the skin much as it does to the rest of our bodies.
Many of the problems associated with older skin are secondary to poor personal care. We can't do anything about the loss of elastic tissue as we age, but we are responsible for the heaps of trouble that excess sun exposure can cause our skin. Most skin cancers are preventable by the simple strategy of staying out of the sun and using proper protection when in the sun. Walter M.
