I have very elastic skin is this a bad thing i'm 16 scared if having a lot of wrinkles when older because of this ?

What do you mean: by elastic skin? Everyone has elastin in their skin, its part of what makes up your dermis or second layer of skin along with collagen. Unless you have a disorder, which you need to show to a dermatologist, I am sure you will be fine. Hope that helps, and just wear your sunscreen that's best for wrinkle prevention!
