As we age, our daily routines often need thoughtful adjustment. One of the most common—and surprisingly impactful—habits to reconsider is showering. While feeling clean is essential, for those aged 65 and over, showering less frequently can actually be a key part of maintaining healthy skin.

This isn’t about being less hygienic; it’s about adapting to your body’s changing needs.

Why Skin Changes After 65

Aging skin undergoes natural changes that make it more fragile. Key supportive elements decline:

•  Collagen & Elastin: These proteins, which keep skin firm and supple, diminish.

• Sebum Production: The skin’s natural oils, which create a protective barrier, decrease.
