Women's skin ages faster than men's: study October 3, 2006 05:21:54 PM PST Women's skin ages faster than men's, according to a German study using a new laser-based technique to measure damage from sun exposure and aging. The study, published in Optics Letters, a journal of the Optical Society of America, was based on a new technique in which doctors shine pulses of infrared laser light to look at the deeper layers of the skin and measure aging. The imaging of collagen and elastin, whose degeneration causes wrinkles and loss of smoothness, found that women lose collagen faster than men. "The dependence appeared to be sex-dependent, with women's skin losing collagen at faster rates than men's," according to the researchers from Germany's Freidrich Schiller University in Jena and the Fraunhofer Institute of Biomedical Technology in St. Ingbert. Collagens are a group of proteins in the dermis, the connective tissue layer of the skin, and are responsible for the strength of skin. The human body makes a lot of collagen in youth but production declines with aging. Currently, dermatologists who want to examine a patient's collagen network in the dermis have to remove a sample of tissue and look at it under a microscope. Authors of the study said this new non-invasive test might one day help in testing anti-aging cosmetic products as well as in the study of skin diseases that affect the collagen structure.
 
I think now it's fair to both sexes. Generally, men will die faster (around 60+)than women because men don't have the hormone called estrogen. This hormone is normally found in women and it helps to take care of the heart.

Conclusion: Men will have shorter life span than women but with better skin condition (Ehem, ehem). The extra money that doesn't go to skincare treatment can be chanelled to our UDMs (Ehem, ehem). Women, on the other hand will have the chance to live longer but they really have to spend like err, a fortune just to keep up with men's better looking skin (ehem, ehem).
 
..... wah.. now this car club also talking about women skin. ........

answer- too many chemicals over the course of their lives,

Answer: Women skin age faster because the skin is losing collagen at a faster rate than men. Why is that so? Because:

1. Most women worry too much, sometimes for no apparent reason.
2. Some women try do to men's stuff, like smoking for example.
3. Some women lack sense of humour. Try to be the joker instead of the audience.
4. Lack of sleep.
5. Overexposed to UV rays.
6. Overexposed to aircond without applying moisturiser.
7. Drink less water.
8. Lack of TT sessions.

Women age faster 'cos they have to put up with the likes of us :D
 
I think because their skins usually dont have air to breathe or look at the sun. U know lar ... 24 hours cover up by make up, lotion, bla bla bla.

The reason why they put on make up is to keep up with men's ever youthful looking skin. :D :D
Remember during secondary school days when the senior girls already looked like 21 and the Form Three boys looked like Standard Six boys? Hmm..how youthful. I love my skin..

on the contrary hor.... the one dat wear makeup 24 X 7 are the ones dat look old before their time. many cosmetics clog pores and prevent the skin's natural oils from keeping it soft and supple. too much exposure to the sun dries out the skin too....

What ladies need the most is not make up, but Stop Lines Moisturizer with SPF15 Sunscreen. It provides treatment against expression lines, reinforces skin's natural defence plus it hydrates and soothes the skin. What else can a lady ask for?
 
Very true, Ah Lian.
