Wrinkles mainly happen on the parts of the body that get the most sun exposure, including the face, neck, the backs of the hands, and the tops of the forearms.
Aging is the main factor that leaves us with a weaker, less hydrated, and less stretchy skin causing lines to form. There are many other factors that contributes to the process of developing wrinkles.
