Sometimes, women seem to age rapidly instead of gradually—an effect some call “precipitous aging.”
Yu Ya-wen, director of the Shang Xi Chinese Medicine Clinic in Taiwan, shared three essential anti-aging strategies to help prevent seemingly accelerated aging.
A Period of Rapid Aging
According to a 2022 study published in Frontiers in Medicine, women experience the fastest skin aging between the ages of 43 and 47. This period is marked by more age spots, darkened skin tone, and more pronounced wrinkles. Yu noted that these findings align with the way that traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) describes aging in women.
