Article Synopsis
- Skin aging results from both internal factors (like hormones and genetics) and external factors (like sun exposure), with ultraviolet radiation being responsible for 80% of facial aging.
- Aging skin shows signs like reduced elasticity, wrinkles, uneven tone, and dryness, with photoaging leading to more severe symptoms such as deeper wrinkles and rough texture.
- The study utilized computational methods to identify natural products that may counteract skin aging and predicted their effects on specific proteins involved in skin health, suggesting potential new treatments.
