Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -As you get older, your skin naturally becomes less elastic and more fragile. Decreased production of natural oils dries your skin and makes it appear more wrinkled. Fat in the deeper layers of your skin diminishes. This causes loose, saggy skin and more-pronounced lines and crevices.
Detailed explanation-2: -Collagen’s main role is to provide structure, strength and support in your body. Elastin’s main role is to provide stretchiness in your body, and it’s approximately 1, 000 times stretchier than collagen.
