Postgraduate Medicine, 1989
Several pathologic processes of the skin are seen more commonly in the elderly, so these patients need special attention.

AbstractSimilar to the entire organism, skin is subject to an unpreventable intrinsic ageing process. Additionally, skin ageing is also influenced by exogenous factors.

Physiology of skin aging

Pathologie Biologie, 2009
Skin is the most voluminous organ of the body. It assumes several important physiological functions and represents also a "social interface" between an individual and other members of society.

Clinics in Geriatric Medicine, 1986
Despite an overall thinning of the epidermis and focal areas of cytologic atypia, there was no morphologic evidence that the protective function of this tissue was compromised by age. The characteristic morphologic markers associated with the keratinization process were not altered either in appearance or in amounts.

Aging skin

The American Journal of Medicine, 1995
Aging of the skin is a composite of actinic damage, chronologic aging, and hormonal influences. The majority of changes associated with aging, such as wrinkles and solar lentigines ("liver spots"), are due to photoaging and reflect cumulative sun exposure as well as skin pigmentation. Classically, chronologic aging includes those cutaneous changes that

Skin Aging and Dry Skin

The Journal of Dermatology, 2004
AbstractSkin aging appears to be the result of both scheduled and continuous “wear and tear” processes that damage cellular DNA and proteins. Two types of aging, chronological skin aging and photoaging, have distinct clinical and histological features. Chronological skin aging is a universal and inevitable process characterized primarily by physiologic
