Hormonal modulation of ageing skin microstructure and mechanical properties
Ageing tissue is characterised by an alteration in mechanical properties, with tissues becoming increasingly fragile, stiff and less resilient over time. This can lead to a loss of function in tissues which undergo a high degree of stretch and recoil, such as the skin, blood vessels and lungs. These...
