Senile atrophy of the skin is associated with progressive atrophy of the dermis,
as well as changes in the architectural organization, leading to volume loss.1
The dermal elastic fibers become disorganized, and the epidermal mitochondrial
network becomes more fragmented with age.2
With time, the total amount of Hyaluronic Acid (HA) begins to decrease, leading
to a disorganization of the extracellular matrix (ECM) components and a reduction
of the water binding.3
These changes result in a loss of skin elasticity, volume and the formation of drier,
thinner skin with more wrinkles or fine lines.4
