Which skin type is most likely to exhibit fine lines and wrinkles?

Normal skin
Oily skin
Mature/aging skin
Combination skin

The correct answer is: Mature/aging skin

The skin type that is most likely to exhibit fine lines and wrinkles is mature or aging skin. As skin ages, it naturally undergoes various changes that lead to the formation of wrinkles. This includes a decrease in collagen production, which affects skin elasticity, and a reduction in moisture levels, making skin appear less plump and supple. Additionally, environmental factors such as sun exposure, smoking, and pollution can exacerbate the aging process, leading to more pronounced fine lines and wrinkles. While the other skin types can experience fine lines or may show signs of aging, mature or aging skin is specifically characterized by these features due to the biological processes associated with aging. Normal, oily, and combination skin types may have their own issues, but fine lines and wrinkles are most prominent in mature skin as a result of the intrinsic aging process.
