Blogger Question - Victoria Beckham's Leg

The Question:

This is a link to a picture of Victoria Beckham's leg (http://img.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix /2007/07_02/beckham RTN1907_600x807.jpg) and I was wondering what happened with her skin. Would sun damage do that?

An Answer:

It is likely that she had gained and lost weight over the years resulting in loose skin that is receiving direct sunlight and therefore is affected by unflattering shadowing. The weight gain could have been with pregnancy and the tendency for her skin to become loose could be genetic. The sun is only indirectly responsible for this one.

P.S. I have been thinking about featuring a question from the comments regularly. What do you all think of the idea?
