Crepey skin refers to skin that has become thin, loose, and finely wrinkled, often with a texture that resembles crepe paper. It is most commonly seen on areas such as the upper arms, neck, chest, hands, and around the eyes, and tends to become more noticeable with age.

The primary cause of crepey skin is a decline in collagen and elastin, key proteins responsible for maintaining skin firmness, strength, and elasticity. Factors such as sun exposure, dehydration, weight fluctuations, and the natural aging process can all accelerate this breakdown. As structural support diminishes, the skin gradually loses its ability to remain smooth and resilient.

Treatments that stimulate collagen production can significantly improve the appearance of crepey skin. Results develop gradually rather than instantly, but continue to build over time with each treatment session, leading to firmer, more refined skin texture.
