Dark Circles and Hollows

As we age, whether it's happening right on schedule or a bit earlier than anticipated, our bodies undergo changes. Collagen and elastin production takes a hit, making our skin lose some of its natural firmness. Additionally, the fat in our faces decreases, causing a less smooth texture. This shift can be noticed in the reduced fullness of cheekbones, thinner lips, and deeper undereye areas, all contributing to the perception of sagging skin.
