Cutis Laxa is a rare genetic condition in which deterioration
in the fatty and connective tissues as well as bones under the skin appears as
the extreme premature aging. Some of them reported that their teeth fall out
and have had to rely on collagen injection to combat wrinkles.
In contrast to 'Cutis Laxa', ‘Lipodystrophy’ is an extremely rare
disorder in which fat deposited in the body parts, where it should not be allowed to deposit. With other health complication 'Lipodystrophy' makes a person look and appear older than his/her original age.
