Why does skin become dull and rough with age ?

Maturing skin becomes more susceptible to external damage as the outermost layer (epidermis) thins out. More UV-induced damage leads to age spots and pigmentation; as well as generation of more cell-damaging free radicals. Also the rate of generation of newer, healthier cells decreases; consequently so does the skin’s ability to heal itself.

Lose skin may be accompanied by enlarged pores; making the skin more prone to blackheads, as well as acne and other skin infections. All these factors result in the skin looking dull, rough and old.
