Crepey skin

Crepey skin is a common cosmetic concern that many individuals face as they age. Characterised by a thin, wrinkled appearance reminiscent of crepe paper, this condition often affects areas prone to sun exposure, such as the face, neck, and hands. At our clinic, Dr. Mark specialises in offering advanced skin boosters and treatments to combat the signs of crepey skin, helping patients achieve smoother and more youthful-looking skin.

Signs of crepey skin

Texture Changes: Crepey skin is characterised by a noticeable change in skin texture, resembling the crinkled and fine lines seen on crepe paper.
Sagging and Laxity: Loss of collagen and elastin, essential proteins for skin elasticity, leads to sagging and laxity, contributing to the crepey appearance.
Thinness: Crepey skin is often thinner than normal skin, making it more prone to damage and less resilient.
Fine Wrinkles: Fine, superficial wrinkles become more apparent, especially in areas with repetitive movement or sun exposure.

causes of crepey skin

Ageing: The natural ageing process results in a decrease in collagen and elastin production, leading to the loss of skin firmness and resilience.
Sun Exposure: Prolonged exposure to UV rays accelerates collagen breakdown and contributes to premature ageing, including crepey skin.
Genetics: Genetic factors can influence skin characteristics and how it ages, including the likelihood of developing crepey skin.
Dehydration: Inadequate hydration can exacerbate the appearance of crepey skin, as well-hydrated skin is more plump and resilient.
