Cosmetic Surgery, Women Wrinkle More & Earlier,
A recent study suggests that women may wrinkle earlier, more and deeper than men.
Although the study is only preliminary (only 25 male and 25 female cadavers where examined) it may point to a gender difference in the skin, particularly around the mouth.
If further studies can confirm the findings, and there are gender differences in the amount and type or wrinkles, then surgeons can take this into account. Different types of treatment could be applied to male and female plastic surgery clients and greater forward planning could be achieved.
Other surgeries such as liposuction, gastric band and tummy tuck could also have gender factors which could be utilized to improve cosmetic surgery practice.

I always suspected this.
There are bound to be differences between the sexes, but i don’t think this very early study can really prove anything.
People have known for generations that women do not age as well as men, and unfortunately men are able to wear wrinkles well when women are expected to have smooth skin.
