Photoaging refers to the skin's aging process caused by prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or artificial sources. This exposure leads to changes in the skin's texture, tone, and elasticity, resulting in wrinkles, fine lines, and age spots. The damage occurs at the cellular level, affecting collagen and elastin production, which are essential for maintaining skin structure. Preventing photoaging involves using sunscreen with a high SPF, wearing protective clothing, and seeking shade during peak sun hours. Additionally, incorporating antioxidants into skincare routines can help combat the effects of UV damage and promote healthier skin.
