Fragility of the bone can make a person susceptible to injury and bone pain. Knowing the fragility of the bone not only through medical examination, but also the face. Detection of bone fragility by conditions that appear shriveled.
According to the research team from Yale School of Medicine in the United States, women have more wrinkles, the condition tends to brittle bones. This makes them more at risk of suffering a painful osteoporosis or fractures that are difficult to cure.
Researchers analyzed 114 women aged 40s and early 50s who just passed menopause. Excluding those who had been injecting botox or other cosmetic procedures, for reducing wrinkles.
Wrinkles on the face and neck 11 points and then calculated the respondents. The depth of the wrinkles on those points were also measured. Researchers also noted the firmness of skin on the forehead and cheek area. Then, using X-ray technology their bone density measured.
From the analysis, women who have severe wrinkles conditions are known to have weak bones. So, not only the conditions of severe wrinkles, but also the bones were in a weak condition.
"We found, deep wrinkles and severe associated with bone fragility. The bad wrinkles, more severe bone fragility. Although the relationship between bone and the skin was evident, both built by the same thing that is collagen," said one researcher, Lubna Pal, who also works as an expert hormone, as quoted by the Daily Mail.
With age, collagen production also changes and impact on skin condition, namely wrinkles and sagging skin. Decreased collagen production which also trigger a decrease in the quality and quantity of bone.
"We want to know whether the intensity of skin wrinkles may allow identification of women at risk of bone fragility," said Pal.
He also stressed the importance of this research. That's because it was found that the appearance and physical properties of the skin may reflect bone quality. Thus, enabling physicians to identify the risk of fractures in post-menopausal women without depending on a series of expensive tests.
