“…These age‐related changes may occur either through intrinsic (degenerative process the body undergoes over time) or extrinsic (exposure to environmental factors) pathways. Currently, the existing literature regarding age‐related changes in skin lipid composition is not well documented, and different groups have reported variable effects on the concentrations of the three major lipid classes (ceramides, cholesterol, and fatty acids) found in skin (Boireau‐Adamezyk, Baillet‐Guffroy, & Stamatas, ; Rogers, Harding, Mayo, Banks, & Rawlings, ; Sjovall et al, ; Starr et al, ).
