Does DHT makes your skin older?

Found these, but my english isn't good enough to be sure: http://www.ethocyninfo.com/mechanism-of-action/ https://www.nuskin.com/en_US/corpor...l_care_science/skin_aging_and_physiology.html

DHT definitely makes your skin older. I've had it in my body as long as I can remember, and every year that passes my skin just seems to be getting older. The rest of my body too. It's crazy.

LOL. But you know, there are people who look younger than they actaully are and the opposite. I am thinking if high amounts of dht will make you age faster and if finasteride actually makes you "younger" in this case.

No one really knows if it even matters much one way or the other. Testosterone plays some role in a lot of stuff since its a huge male hormone so it might play a role in acne or muscle and lowering DHT increases that

I'm not sure about that. I think genetics plays the biggest role here.

It is absolutely certain that DHT is an aging hormone.

Honestly, DHT gets blamed for everything, but the whole aging thing is kind of a mix. Higher DHT usually just means super oily skin, clogged pores, and breakouts, which definitely messes with your skin and makes your face look tired or dull.

As for actual wrinkles or sagging, though, that's usually way more about UV damage, collagen loss, or general aging. DHT mostly just messes with your oil production.

TBF, locking down a solid routine goes a long way. I actually started using Skin Vitality a while back to help keep things balanced, and it made a huge difference with the overall texture and freshness. Did you notice your skin look any better after tackling your levels, or did it just get less greasy?

Dihydrotestosterone can contribute to skin aging by inhibiting elastin production. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXoKcD0kKb9bMHV9YJcXcJcuPI5PjO1pj

I'm not sure about that. I think genetics plays the biggest role here.

Overall skin aging is also driven by sun exposure, genetics, a natural drop in structural proteins over time, lifestyle factors, and more.
