Collagen loss is a gradual process, and it doesn’t necessarily begin with the appearance of wrinkles.
As collagen production declines with age, you may first notice more subtle changes in the skin, such as reduced firmness and elasticity, changes in texture, increased visibility of pores, fine lines that take longer to settle, or a gradual loss of definition around the face and neck. These changes can be easy to overlook because they develop progressively over time.
Understanding these early signs is important because supporting skin quality is not simply about treating wrinkles once they appear. A considered approach looks at the overall health, structure and quality of the skin, alongside your individual concerns and goals.
At The MediClinic, our doctor led team takes a personalised approach to skin ageing, assessing your skin and discussing the most appropriate treatment options for you.
