Definitely not young John! But the skin effect is a strange sort of wrinkling. One of my nurses father has the same effect so it is primarily down to the Prednisone. Certainly be interested in other experiences. I did read somewhere that a cream containing urea will actually hydrate to some extent, as opposed to most creams which seem only to slow down moisture loss due to the barrier they provide. Can't find the reference though I'm afraid.
