    GlossaryPremature Aging

    accelerated appearance of aging signs earlier than typical

    Premature aging, also known as early aging, refers to the accelerated appearance of signs of aging, such as wrinkles, gray hair, and loss of skin elasticity, occurring earlier than the typical age range. This can be caused by various factors including genetics, environmental stressors like UV radiation, lifestyle choices such as smoking and poor diet, and underlying medical conditions. Understanding the mechanisms behind premature aging can help in developing targeted interventions to slow down or mitigate its effects.
