As the skin ages, the dermis thins and the number of collagen and elastic fibers is reduced. This and gravity causes the skin to sag and wrinkle. Blood vessels are more fragile and less quick to respond to temperature regulation. And, combined with the decrease in dermis sweat glands and the reduction in hypodermis adipose tissue, all of this makes temperature regulation much more difficult.
