How come the head and neck age and wrinkle when the rest of the body is incredibly toned going into old age?

Question

Just saw a picture of the man who plays James Bond. His body is fire, but you can certainly tell his age in his face and neck. I’ve seen this before with older folks who are incredibly fit. What makes the face and neck age so much more?
