Brief summary

We will conduct a cross-sectional survey from adults 18 years of age and older to examine consumer knowledge, attitudes and behavior towards aging skin.

Detailed description

We will perform a cross-sectional survey study to understand the significance of age-related skin changes to consumers. We will recruit participants through ResearchMatch (a national free and secure online tool) and collect the following data: Demographic information, including age, gender, race/ethnicity, geographic location, and yearly household income * How do participants feel towards their own skin and age-related skin changes? * Which aging-related skin changes are the most significant? * What factors affect how participants feel towards their skin? * What role do age-related skin changes play in other aspects of the participants' lives, such as their social and work life? * What treatments are participants currently seeking, and what are their goals for these treatments? * How much do they prioritize these treatments? * What else are they hoping to do? Using the demographic information, we will also analyze whether there are differences with: * Age * Gender identity * Racial/ethnic identity * Marital status * Geographic location * Yearly household income
