Evolutionary speaking, what's the point of losing collagen in face?

[Fr12]

We start to lose collagen at 20yo, losing 1% of it each year.
This is considered as a bad thing, so why did not Evolution get rid of this shitty trait?

Why Humans start to downgrade their looks at 20yo despite having 70-100 years lifespan? Why did not females of the past select mates who were able to retain collagen much longer?

Because wrinkles make you more masculine.
And older women want men and not pretty boys

Evolution no longer gives a shit about you after you successfully breed

retarded question

its not about having an evolutionary advantage, its that the human body is flawed

in 100 years there will probably be genetic engineering for i n f i n i t e collagen production. just i m a g i n e 100 yr old stacys who look 20 jfl tbh

cause you're supposed to have a mate by then, therefore there is no need to look youthful

But we stay fertile almost all our life (males) and women can breed until 40-50yo
It would make more sense to keep our collagen until old age (50yo)

Its not evolutionary based you dumbass. Its because youre getting old and your body is degrading

You start losing collagen at 25, not 20.

Vast majority of men father kids before 40-50 yo
