when does skin begin to age?
Experts believe skin aging begins around the age of 25 years old; however, the 7 early signs of aging reflect more at age 30.

Experts suggest that skin aging normally begins around the age of 25 years old when the body progressively reduces manufacturing collagen, causing the skin to lose elasticity. These early signs reflect well as you reach 30 years old.

7 early changes of aging at 30

The skin reveals noticeable indications of aging around 30 years old, often called the seven signs of aging, which include the following:

  1. Dull skin
    • The bright complexion of youth disappears with age because your skin naturally loses moisture levels in the top layer of the skin.
    • Young skin renews itself every three to four weeks, but aged skin renews itself every four to six weeks.
  2. Fine lines and wrinkles
    • Fine lines, crow's feet, and wrinkles are the most visible and frequently distressing indications of aging in both men and women.
