The Role of Mitochondria in Skin Aging: A Science Deep Dive
The root cause of skin aging often runs deeper, down to the cellular level, specifically involving mitochondria. Mitochondria play a crucial role in cellular aging, impacting how our skin looks and feels. As we age, mitochondria don’t function as effectively, leading to less energy for skin cells to divide and produce collagen, resulting in thinner skin and wrinkles.
