Skin aging can be divided into 4 different subtypes: wrinkles, pigmented spots, telangiectasia and sagging. This prospective population-based study examined 2731 participants aged 51-98 years old, in order to discover risk factors for facial wrinkles. Known risk factors, such as smoking, excessive UV-exposure and low BMI, were confirmed. Besides this, skin color showed an interesting association: North-Europeans with a dark skin color appeared to have significantly more wrinkles than those with a light skin color.
